Base Plate Thickness given Projection of Base Plate beyond Flange and Parallel to Web Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Thickness = Projection of Base Plate Beyond Flange*sqrt(2*Factored Load/(0.9*Yield Load*Width*Length))
t = m*sqrt(2*P_u/(0.9*F_y*B*N))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 6 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Thickness - (Measured in Millimeter) - The thickness of the base plate.
Projection of Base Plate Beyond Flange - (Measured in Millimeter) - Projection of base plate beyond flange is distance between base plate beyond the flange and parallel to the web.
Factored Load - (Measured in Kilonewton) - Factored Load is a load multiplied by a certain factor designated by codes of practice to determine the strength of a structural members.
Yield Load - (Measured in Kilonewton) - Yield load is the load value at the point of yield; that is, where plastic deformation begins in stress strain curve.
Width - (Measured in Millimeter) - The width is parallel to the flanges.
Length - (Measured in Millimeter) - The length of a rectangular base plate for a wide-flange column.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Projection of Base Plate Beyond Flange: 75 Millimeter --> 75 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Factored Load: 39381 Kilonewton --> 39381 Kilonewton No Conversion Required
Yield Load: 350 Kilonewton --> 350 Kilonewton No Conversion Required
Width: 40 Millimeter --> 40 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Length: 30 Millimeter --> 30 Millimeter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t = m*sqrt(2*P_u/(0.9*F_y*B*N)) --> 75*sqrt(2*39381/(0.9*350*40*30))

Evaluating ... ...

t = 34.2352679473751

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0342352679473751 Meter -->34.2352679473751 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

34.2352679473751 ≈ 34.23527 Millimeter <-- Thickness

Specified Compressive Strength of Concrete using Nominal Bearing Strength

LaTeX Go Specified Compressive Strength of Concrete = (Nominal Bearing Strength/0.85)*sqrt(Area of Base Plate/Area of supporting Concrete)

Nominal Bearing Strength of Concrete

LaTeX Go Nominal Bearing Strength = Specified Compressive Strength of Concrete*0.85*sqrt(Area of supporting Concrete/Area of Base Plate)

Area of Supporting Concrete given Nominal Bearing Strength

LaTeX Go Area of supporting Concrete = Area of Base Plate*((Nominal Bearing Strength/(Specified Compressive Strength of Concrete*0.85))^2)

How do you make a Base Plate?

The base plate should be of sufficient size, stiffness and strength to transmit the axial compressive force from the column to the foundation through the bedding material, without exceeding the local bearing resistance of the foundation.

What is Base Plate and its use?

Base plate is a plate that serves as a base or support. Column bases are used as a steel-concrete interface between steel columns and their foundations. Their main function is to transmit the structural stresses to the concrete footing surface and to link the column bottom end to the footing.
