CE322-18 PRINCIPLES OF STEEL DESIGN – ASSIGNMENT NO.

STUDENT NAME: _______________________________ DATE: ______________


STUDENT NUMBER: ____________________________

INSTRUCTIONS:

Use five (5) decimal places for your calculations but record your final answer/s in two (2) decimal
places. Each problem should be written on a new sheet of paper. The following ground rules will
apply in the grading of problem sets. Points will be deducted for each of the following items:

• No sketches where sketches are necessary or desirable as instructed.


• No units where units are applicable.
• Not rounding-off your final answers to an appropriate decimal place.
• Not underlining/boxing your final answers.
• Not numbering each page and each problem.
• Not using the correct paper size (long bond paper).

Problem No. 1 (25 points)

Problem No. 2 (25 points)
For the three-story building shown in figure (a) and (b), calculate the design service live load
supported by
1. floor beam A in kN/m, (Ans. 6 kN/m)
2. girder B in kN, and
3. the interior column C in kN located at grid 2-B in the ground floor level. (Ans. 191.36kN)

Assume a 2.4kPa design live load, Lo, on all floors including the roof. Consider the live load reduction
if permitted by the NSCP 2015.
Problem No. 3 (25 points)
Refer to the figure shown.
Given:
L = 9m
S1 = S3 = 3m
S2 = 4m

Dead load (including selfweight) = 4.5 kPa


Live load = 4.6 kPa

For maximum stresses, apply the following:


a. Patterned loading for live load
b. Ultimate load combination, U = 1.2D + 1.6L

Use attached figure for the possible load patterns and corresponding, reactions, shears and
moments.

1. Calculate the maximum shear at N.


2. Find the maximum bending moment at M.
3. Determine the maximum shear and bending moment in the continuous beam.
4. Provide the maximum positive bending moment in the continuous beam.

A typical frame of a six-story office building is shown. The loading on the frame is as follows:
Roof dead load; including cladding and columns; wDr = 1.6kN/m
Roof live load; wLr = 0.6kN/m
Floor dead load; including cladding and columns; wD = 2.2kN/m
Floor live load; wL = 1.7kN/m
Horizontal wind pressure; ph = 1.4kN/m
Vertical wind pressure; pv = 0.7kN/m
Determine the maximum and minimum required loads on a column. Assume f1=1.0.
