PLEASE ONLY SOLVE ANALYSIS QUESTIONS AND LOAD CASES USING THE DESIGN DATA AND ASSUMPTIONS GIVEN BELOW:
The owner of a building complex has planned to infill the space between two existing adjacent buildings with
a new multibay single storey building and roof garden. The new metre long structure will comprise frames
at m centres that support a precast concrete roof deck. A crosssection through one of the internal frames
is shown in Figure The variable load to be supported by the roof deck has been calculated to allow for a garden area and a set of lightweight freestanding structures. You are required to design both an internal concrete frame and a steel frame to support the roof structure and associated loads, assuming that both frames are continuous structures.
You should use the stiffnessbased matrix method.
You should assume the following:
The roof deck comprises thick precast concrete units that span between the frames, overlaid with
a mm mortar screed. The total characteristic permanent load of the units and screed is kNm
The characteristic variable load is kNm
The beams are pinned at their intersection with the existing buildings.
The existing buildings have structural elements capable of supporting the beam loads at the necessary locations.
The columns are supported by an existing raft foundation located mm below the finished floor level FFL of the new structure.
There are pinned supports at the base of the columns.
The beamcolumn connections should be considered continuous ie moment carrying
DESIGN DATA:
Concrete frame
cover
Steel frame
Steel
ANALYSIS:
The rotational stiffness of a pinended beam ;
The rotational stiffness of a fixedend beam ;
The fixed end moment for a beam builtin at both ends ;
The fixed end moment at the builtin encastr end of a beam with a pin support at one end and an encastr support at the other end
You are not expected to redistribute moments.
Important: You will only need to solve a system of equations with the primary unknowns being the rotations at the two columnbeam intersections.
Consider the following load cases for both frames;
i Ultimate permanent variable load across the entire length of the continuous beam.
ii Ultimate permanent variable load on the central span only and the unfactored
permanent load on the outer spans.
iii. Serviceability permanent variable load across the entire length of the continuous beam.
iv Serviceability permanent variable load on the central span only and the unfactored
permanent load on the outer spans.
v Quasipermanent load across the entire length of the continuous beam.
vi Quasi permanent load on the central span only and the unfactored permanent load on the outer spans.
