Steel Structures - Building technology.pptxNikhil Raut
Steel structures are commonly used for high-rise buildings, long-span structures, industrial and warehouse buildings, and temporary structures due to steel's strength, light weight, speed of construction, and ability to create large spaces. Steel structures have advantages such as strength, flexibility, ductility, stability, earthquake resistance, and lighter weight compared to other materials. However, steel loses strength at high temperatures and is susceptible to corrosion. Common steel sections include angles, channels, I-beams, T-beams, round/square bars, and plates. Steel connections are made through bolting, riveting, and welding. Portal frames provide wide spans and are lightweight but require large members and cranes for erection.
Steel structures are made from combinations of structural steel members designed to carry loads and provide rigidity. Common steel structures include buildings, bridges, and towers. Steel comes in various grades depending on carbon content, including low carbon steel (mild steel), medium carbon steel, and high carbon steel. Steel structures offer advantages like strength, light weight, and ease of fabrication but require maintenance to prevent corrosion. Common steel sections used in construction include I-beams, channels, angles, and hollow sections. Connections between steel members can be welded, bolted, or riveted.
Steel is a versatile building material that can be manufactured in various forms like sections, bars, plates, and sheets to serve both structural and non-structural purposes in construction. Different types and grades of steel like mild steel, high carbon steel, high tensile steel, and reinforced bars have specific chemical compositions and mechanical properties making them suitable for uses like building frames, reinforcement, tools, and machine parts. Rolled sections, bars, plates, and sheets are designated according to their dimensions, weight, and other specifications to uniquely identify the type and size of each steel product.
Steel structure is a metal structure made of structural steel components connected together to carry loads and provide rigidity. Steel structures require less material than concrete or timber structures due to steel's high strength. Common steel structures include industrial, commercial, and residential buildings, bridges, and transmission towers. Steel has advantages like high strength-to-weight ratio and ductility before failure. However, steel structures have higher costs than other materials and steel is vulnerable to corrosion and weakened by fire without protection.
This document provides an introduction to reinforced concrete, including its key components and purposes. Reinforced concrete is a composite material made of concrete, which resists compression well but has low tensile strength, and steel reinforcing bars, which resist tension well. Together they create an economical and strong structural material. The document outlines structural elements, design considerations for safety, reliability, and economy, and limit state design principles which ensure structures do not fail under expected loads. It also discusses factors that affect concrete durability and different failure modes in reinforced concrete depending on steel reinforcement ratios.
This document provides an introduction to prestressed concrete, including:
- Prestressing concrete involves applying an initial compressive load to counteract tensile stresses during use. Ancient examples include metal bands on wood.
- Prestressing provides advantages over reinforced concrete like reduced cracking, increased strength and stiffness, and suitability for precast construction.
- It describes prestressing materials, common systems like pre-tensioning and post-tensioning, and concepts in the analysis and design of prestressed concrete like stress conditions and load balancing.
This document discusses specifications for structural steel design published by organizations like AISC and AASHTO. It covers the two main design methodologies: Allowable Strength Design (ASD) and Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD). ASD divides the nominal strength by a safety factor while LRFD uses load and resistance factors. The document also classifies steel sections as compact, non-compact, or slender based on width-to-thickness ratios. It describes hot rolled, cold rolled, and built-up steel sections as well as their uses and properties.

Overall, the document serves as a reference for the design of steel structures.
Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon that is strong, tough, ductile, and durable. It exists in many forms for construction including carbon steels, alloy steels, and stainless steels. Steel has important physical properties like strength and toughness as well as chemical properties like density and thermal conductivity. Mechanical properties are also critical and determine the load steel can withstand. Notch toughness refers to a steel's ability to resist crack propagation which is important for durability. In buildings, steel is used for reinforcement cages in concrete, as well as foundations, beams, girders, and the structural frame.
This document outlines the syllabus for a design of steel structures course. It covers five units: connections, tension members, compression members, flexural members, and introduces some common steel sections. Key topics include bolted, welded, and riveted connections, design of tension and compression members, beams under bending and shear, and plate and gantry girders. Limit state and working stress design philosophies are introduced along with limit states of strength and serviceability. Relevant codes and reference books are also listed.
Mild steel is a low-carbon steel with less than 0.25% carbon by weight, making it more ductile than higher-carbon steels. It is manufactured through processes like direct reduced iron and electric arc furnaces. Mild steel can be recycled without losing its properties. It has applications in construction materials, machinery parts, and other areas due to its strength, weldability, and lower cost compared to other steels. Some disadvantages are that it is heavier than other materials and prone to rusting.
The document discusses hot rolled and cold rolled steel sections. Hot rolled sections involve shaping steel above its recrystallization temperature using large rollers to deform hot metal slabs. This allows large sizes but with less dimensional control. Cold rolled sections further process hot rolled steel below the recrystallization temperature through annealing and tempering rolls. This increases strength, hardness and dimensional accuracy but requires more rolling cycles. The document provides examples of sections produced by both methods like channels, angles and bars, and discusses their advantages and uses.
This document provides an overview of pre-stressed concrete structures. It discusses the background and history of prestressing, including force-fitting metal bands on wooden barrels and pre-tensioning bicycle wheel spokes. The document then covers the different types and classifications of prestressing, including pre-tensioning versus post-tensioning, external versus internal prestressing, and uniaxial versus multiaxial prestressing. Finally, it examines the two main types of losses in prestress - elastic shortening and friction, providing equations to calculate losses from these factors.
This document provides an overview of steel structure design. It discusses the types of steel structures like truss, frame, grid and arch structures. It describes the methodology of steel design using Allowable Strength Design and Load and Resistance Factor Design. It discusses the mechanical properties of steel, concepts of limit state design for beam columns, and connections. It also provides details on the design of beams, including classifications of beams and the main considerations in beam design.
Most steel construction is done with a type of steel called mild steel. Mild steel is a material that is immensely strong. Take a circular bar of steel 1 inch / 25mm in diameter. If you were to attach this bar securely to your ceiling, you could hang from it 20,000 Kg (which is 20 tons)
This immense strength is of great advantage to buildings. The other important feature of steel framing is its flexibility. It can bend without cracking, which is another great advantage, as a steel building can flex when it is pushed to one side by say, wind, or an earthquake. The third characteristic of steel is its plasticity or ductility.
Reinforced cement concrete (RCC) is a composite material made of cement concrete reinforced with steel bars. Some key points:
- François Coignet built the first reinforced concrete structure, a four story house in Paris in 1853.
- RCC is used in the construction of columns, beams, footings, slabs, dams, water tanks, tunnels, bridges, walls and towers due to its high strength and durability.
- The steel reinforcement provides tensile strength, while the concrete primarily resists compressive forces and protects the steel from corrosion. Together they form a very strong, stable structural material.
This document discusses different techniques for connecting steel structures, including riveted, bolted, and welded connections. Riveted connections were commonly used in the past but have become less popular. Bolted connections are now more common as they are easier to install and do not require skilled labor. Welded connections provide a strong bond but require more precision. The document explores the advantages and disadvantages of each connection type and describes processes like electric arc welding and oxy-acetylene welding.
A truss is an assembly of members such as beams, connected by nodes, that creates a rigid structure. In engineering, a truss is a structure that "consists of two-force members only, where the members are organized so that the assemblage as a whole behaves as a single object"
This document discusses prestressed concrete, including:

• Ribbed HYSD bars are made of high yield strength steel. Ribs are
nothing but projections produced on bars by cold twisting of bar in
hot rolled condition. The twist is made according the standard
requirements.
Rolled Thermo-Mechanically Treated (TMT) Bars
• Thermo Mechanically Treated or TMT bars are high-strength
reinforcement bars having a hardened outer core and a soft inner
core. They are manufactured by passing hot rolled steel billets
through water, which hardens the surface and increases its tensile
strength while the inner core stays at a comparatively warmer
temperature and hence, the core becomes more ductile. This
variation in the microstructure of the cross-section of the bar
provides huge strength to the bar.
25
26. Choice of sections
• Governed by sectional properties and availability
• Popular in India – ISMB, ISMC, equal angles
• Channels are used in purlins, Tee and angles in truss, I section in
beam and column
Other forms of sections
• Built-up, stepped, wide flange, hybrid, cold
• formed (formed from light gauge steel strips)
26
28. Types of Loads
• Dead loads (1S 875 (Part 1)
• Imposed loads (live load, crane load, snow load, dust load, wave load, earth
pressures, etc) - IS 875 (Part 2).
• Wind loads - IS 875 (Part 3)
• Earthquake loads - IS 1893 (Part 1)
• Erection loads
• Accidental loads such as those due to blast, impact of vehicles, etc;
• Secondary effects due to contraction or expansion resulting from
temperature changes, differential settlements of the structure as a whole or
of its components, eccentric connections, rigidity of joints differing from
design assumptions.
28
29. Load combinations
• Load combinations for design purposes shall be those that
produce maximum forces and effects and consequently maximum
stresses and deformations.
The following combination of loads with appropriate partial safety
factors (see Table 4) maybe considered.
• a) Dead load + imposed load
• b) Dead load + imposed load + wind or earthquake load
• c) Dead load + wind or earthquake load
• d) Dead load+ erection load.
29
31. Objectives of Design
The aim of design is to decide shape, size and connection details of the
members so that the structure being designed performs satisfactorily
during its intended life.
• Sustain all loads expected on it
• Sustain deformations during and after construction
• Should have adequate durability
• Should have adequate resistance to fire and other weathering agents.
• Should not collapse under accidental loads
31
32. Design philosophy
1. Working Stress method
• Stress at which the material starts to yield is taken as permissible
stress of the section. All sections are designed not to exceed the
permissible stress
• Permissible stress = Yield stress / F.O.S
• Since steel can resist load after yield point, following this principle
results in bulky, uneconomical sections
2. Ultimate Load method (plastic design method)
• Permissible load is a load when all the fiber in the steel is yielded
• This method does not ensure serviceability
32
33. Design philosophy
3. Limit State Method (IS 800 : 2007) : Limit states are the states beyond which the
structure no longer satisfies the specified performance requirements. It includes both
limit state of strength and serviceability.
Limit state of strength:
• associated with failures (or imminent failure), under the action of probable and most
unfavorable combination of loads on the structure which may endanger the safety of
life and property.
It includes
i) Loss of equilibrium of whole or part of the structure
ii) Loss of stability of structure as whole or part of the structure
iii) Failure by excessive deformation
iv) Fracture due to fatigue and brittle fracture
33
34. Design philosophy- Limit State
Limit state of Serviceability
• Deformation and deflections, which may adversely affect the
appearance or effective use of the structure
• Vibrations in the structure or any of its components causing discomfort
to people, damages to the structure, its contents or which may limit its
functional effectiveness
• Repairable damage or crack due to fatigue.
• Corrosion and durability
• Fire.
34
36. Introduction
• Connections are structural elements used for joining different
members of a structural steel frame work.
• Steel Structure is an assemblage of different member such as
“BEAMS,COLUMNS” which are connected to one other, usually at
member ends fastners, so that it shows a single composite unit.
36
37. Why connection is required ?
• Connections between different members of a steel framework not only
facilitate the flow of forces and moments from one member to another
but also allow the transfer of forces up to the foundation level
• A connection failure may lead to a catastrophic failure of the whole
structure.
• Normally, a connection failure is not as ductile as that of a steel member
• For achieving an economical design, it is important that connectors
develop full or a little extra strength of the members it is joining.
37
40. BOLTED CONNECTIONS
• A bolt is a metal pin with a head formed at one end and shank threaded at
the other in order to receive a nut.
• Bolts can be used for making end connections in tension and compression
members and in fabrication of built-up and compound members.
40
41. Types of Bolts
Bolts are classified as
• Unfinished/ Black Bolts (IS 1363 : 2002)
• Finished/ Turned Bolts (IS 1364 : 2002)
• High Strength Friction Grip (HSFG) Bolts (IS 3757 : 1985 and IS
4000 : 1992)
41
42. Unfinished/Black Bolts
• Ordinary, unfinished, common bolts made up of mild steel and least expensive
• The bolts are available from 5 to 36mm in diameter and are designated as M16,
M20, M24 to M30
• Used for primarily light structures under static load such as small trusses,
purlins etc
• Used as temporary fasteners during erection where HSFG bolts or welding are
used as permanent fasteners.
• Not recommended for heavy or dynamic loads or impact or fatigue loads.
42
43. Finished/Turned Bolts
• These bolts are made from mild steel, hexagonal rods, which are
finished by turning to a circular shape.
• Tolerances allowed are about 0.15 mm to 0.5 mm.
• The small tolerance necessitates the use of special methods to
ensure that all the holes align correctly and hence expensive.
• Mainly used in special jobs (in some machines and where there are
dynamic loads).
43
44. High Strength Friction Grip (HSFG) Bolts
• High-strength bolts are made from bars of medium carbon steel.
• Special techniques are used for tightening the nuts to induce a
specified initial tension in the bolt, which causes sufficient friction
between the faying faces.
• The tension in the bolt ensures that no slip takes place under working
conditions and so the load transmission from plate to the bolt is
through friction and hence it is also known as non-slip or slip critical
or friction type connection.
• HSFG bolts are made from quenched and tempered alloy steels with
grades from 8.8 to 10.9.
44
45. Classification of bolts based on type of load transfer
• Bearing type - Unfinished and finished bolts belong to bearing type
since they transfer shear force from one member to the other by
bearing.
• Friction Grip type- HSFG bolts are friction type since they transfer
shear by friction.
45
46. Advantages of Bolted Connections
• Use of unskilled labour and simple tools
• Noiseless and quick fabrication
• No special equipment/process needed for installation
• Fast progress of work
• Accommodates minor discrepancies in dimensions
• The connection supports loads as soon as the bolts are tightened
• Alterations if any can be done easily
• Working area required in the field is less
46
47. Disadvantages of Bolted Connections
• Tensile strength is reduced considerably due to stress concentrations
and reduction of area at the root of the threads.
• Rigidity of joints is reduced due to loose fit, resulting into excessive
deflections
• Due to vibrations nuts are likely to loosen, endangering the safety of
the structures.
47
48. Types of Bolted Joints
• Two types of bolted joints subjected to axial forces (loads are assumed
to pass through centre of gravity of group of bolts)
• (i) Lap Joint and (ii) Butt Joint
• Lap Joint : It is the simplest joint in which plates to be connected
overlap one another.
48
49. Butt Joint : Members to be connected are placed end to end with cover
plate.
Cover plates are provided in two ways
(i) single cover plate butt joint. (ii) Double cover plate butt joint
49
50. • In case of double cover butt joint, the total shear force to be transmitted
by the members is split in two parts (as shown in fig)
• In case of lap joint, only one plane on which the force acts and hence
shear capacity of double cover joint is doubled that of lap joint.
50
51. Load transfer mechanism in bolted connection
• Load bearing type – the load transfer from one connected part to other
part by shear and bearing
• Slip-critical or slip resistance connection – the load transfer by friction
(HFSG bolts)
• In slip resistance connections, the entire forces are resisted by friction
due to large clamping forces developed in bolts.
• The bolts are snug tight and they are termed as pre tensioned joints

53. Failure of Bolted Joints
The bolted joints may fail in any one of the following six ways:
1) Shear failure of bolts
2) Bearing failure of bolts
3) Bearing failure of plates
4) Tensile failure of bolts
5) Tensile or tearing failure of plates
6) Block Shear Failure
53
54. Failure of Bolted Joints
1. Shear failure of Bolts :
• Shear stresses are generated when the
plates slip due to applied forces.
• Failure occurs when shear stress in bolt is
greater than nominal shear capacity of
bolt.
• This failure take place at the bolt shear
plane (interface)
• Bolts may be in single or double shear.
54
55. Failure of Bolted Joints
2. Bearing failure of Bolts:
• The bolt is crushed half circumference
• The plate may be strong in bearing and the heaviest pressed plate may
press the bolt shank.
• It occurs when plates are made of high strength steel
55
56. Failure of Bolted Joints
3. Bearing failure of plates:
• The plate may crush in bearing, if the plate material is weaker than the
bolt material.
• The bearing problem occurs due to the presence of nearby bolt or the
proximity of an edge in the direction of the load.
56
57. Failure of Bolted Joints
4. Tension failure of bolts:
• This failure occurs when bolt in tension and tensile stress in bolt is
greater than the permissible stress of the bolt
• Tension Failure at root of thread (weak)
5.Tension or tearing failure of plates:
• tearing failures occur when the bolts are stronger than the plates.
• Plate breaks along the bolt line
57
58. Failure of Bolted Joints
6. Block shear failure :
• A combination of shear failure and Tension Failure
• A portion of plate (block) shears along the force direction
• Block of material within the bolted area breaks away from
reminder area.
58
63. Grade Classification of Bolts
• The grade classification of bolt is indicative of the strength of the
material of the bolt. The two grades of bolts commonly used are 4.6 and
8.8.
• For a 4.6 grade 4 indicates that the ultimate tensile strength of the bolt,
fub = 4 x 100 = 400 N/mm2 and, 0.6 indicates that the yield strength of the
bolt, fyb= 0.6 x Ultimate strength = 0.6 x 400 = 240 N/ mm2.
63
66. Bearing type connections
In bearing type, load transferred is greater than friction resistance
Bolts in Bearing type connection are checked for
• (i) shear, and
• (ii) bearing
Strength of Bolt:
Strength of bolt = Minimum of i) Strength of bolt in bearing, and ii) Strength of bolt in
shearing
Strength of bolt connection = strength of one bolt x no. of bolts
Strength of joint = Minimum of (i) strength of bolt or bolt group, and (ii) net tensile

Q 5: Design Examples
91. High Strength Friction Grip bolts (HSFG)
• (HSFG) provide extremely efficient connections and perform well under
fluctuating/fatigue load conditions.
• These bolts should be tightened to their proof loads and require
hardened washers to distribute the load under the bolt heads.
• The tension in the bolt ensures that no slip takes place under working
conditions and so the load transmission from plate to the bolt is through
friction and not by bearing.
• HSFG bolts are made from quenched and tempered alloy steels with
grades from 8.8 to 10.9
• HSFG bolts will come into bearing only after if slip takes place
91
92. Slip Resistance as per IS: 800: Cl.10.4.3
• Slip resistance per bolt is given by Vsf < Vdsf
• Vdsf = Vnsf / 𝛾𝑚𝑓
• Vnsf = nominal shear capacity of a bolt as governed by slip for friction type connection,
and is given as:
• Vnsf = µf. ne. Kh. Fo
• i) Slip resistance of bolt Vdsf =
𝜇𝑓𝑛𝑒𝑘ℎ𝐹𝑜
𝛾𝑚𝑓
where Fo = minimum bolt tension (proof load) at installation = Anb fo
fo = proof stress = 0.7 fub
µf = slip factor as specified in table 20 (0.55)
ne =number of effective interfaces offering frictional resistance to slip = 1
92
93. • Kh = 1.0 for fasteners in clearance holes,
= 0.85 for fasteners in oversized and short slotted holes loaded
perpendicular to the slot.
γmf = 1.10 (if slip resistance is designed at service load)
= 1.25 (if slip resistance is designed at ultimate load)
ii) Bearing strength of HSFG Bolts:
HSFG bolts will come into bearing only after slip takes place. If slip is not
critical, HSFG bolts will slip into bearing.

94. An ISA 100mm x 100mm x10mm carries a factored tensile force of 100 kN.
It is to jointed with a 12mm thick gusset plate . Design a high strength
bolted joint when a) no slip is permitted b) when slip is permitted. Steel is
of grade Fe410.
Solution: Let us provide HSFG bolts of grade 8.8 and of diameter 16mm
For 8.8 grade bolts : fub = 800 MPa, Anb = 0.78.π(16)2/4 = 157mm2
When slip is not permitted, the joint will be a slip critical connection and when it is allowed
to slip, the joint will be bearing type connection.
a) Slip-critical connection:
Proof load F0 = Anb x 0.7 fub = 157x0.7x800 x10-3
= 87.92 kN
