Minimum Area by Base Plate Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Minimum Area provided by Base Plate = Axial Compressive Load on Column/Permissible Bearing Strength of Concrete
A_p = P_Column/f_c
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Minimum Area provided by Base Plate - (Measured in Square Millimeter) - Minimum Area provided by Base Plate typically refers to the smallest possible area that can be occupied or used for a particular purpose.
Axial Compressive Load on Column - (Measured in Newton) - Axial Compressive Load on Column is a type of force that is applied along the axis, or central line, of a structural element such as a column.
Permissible Bearing Strength of Concrete - (Measured in Newton per Square Millimeter) - Permissible Bearing Strength of Concrete Foundation is the maximum pressure or load that a soil or rock foundation can safely support without causing excessive settlement or deformation.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Axial Compressive Load on Column: 5580 Newton --> 5580 Newton No Conversion Required
Permissible Bearing Strength of Concrete: 3.8 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 3.8 Newton per Square Millimeter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A_p = P_Column/f_c --> 5580/3.8

Evaluating ... ...

A_p = 1468.42105263158

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00146842105263158 Square Meter -->1468.42105263158 Square Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1468.42105263158 ≈ 1468.421 Square Millimeter <-- Minimum Area provided by Base Plate

Maximum Compressive Load acting on Bracket

LaTeX Go Maximum Compressive Load on Remote Bracket = ((4*(Total Wind Force acting on Vessel))*(Height of Vessel above Foundation-Clearance between Vessel Bottom and Foundation))/(Number of Brackets*Diameter of Anchor Bolt Circle)+(Total Weight of Vessel/Number of Brackets)

Thickness of Horizontal Plate Fixed at Edges

LaTeX Go Thickness of Horizontal Plate = ((0.7)*(Maximum Pressure on Horizontal Plate)*((Length of Horizontal Plate)^(2)/(Maximum Stress in Horizontal Plate fixed at Edges))*((Effective Width of Horizontal Plate)^(4)/((Length of Horizontal Plate)^(4)+(Effective Width of Horizontal Plate)^(4))))^(0.5)

Thickness of Gusset Plate

LaTeX Go Thickness of Gusset Plate = (Bending Moment of Gusset Plate/((Maximum Compressive Stress*(Height of Gusset Plate^(2)))/6))*(1/cos(Gusset Plate Edge Angle))

Maximum Compressive Stress Parallel to Edge of Gusset Plate

LaTeX Go Maximum Compressive Stress = (Bending Moment of Gusset Plate/Section Modulus of Vessel Support)*(1/cos(Gusset Plate Edge Angle))

What is Design Load?

Design load refers to the maximum expected or intended load that a structure or component must be capable of withstanding safely and without failure. It is a crucial factor in engineering and design, as it determines the strength and durability of a structure. Design loads are typically determined by considering various factors such as the weight and distribution of the loads that the structure or component is likely to experience during its intended use, as well as any environmental factors such as wind, earthquakes.
