CE3002 Steel Structures Syllabus:
CE3002 Steel Structures Syllabus – Anna University Regulation 2021
COURSE OBJECTIVES
To acquire hands on experience in design and preparation of structural drawings for steel structures like industrial buildings, steel framed buildings using structural design software and detailed drawing softwares
To introduce the students to design of light gauge steel structures
UNIT I DESIGN ASPECTS AND LOADS ON A STEEL BUILDING
Inputs for the design of a steel building – Design basis report, covering Site Data, geometrical, functional and structural requirements for its end usage – material specifications – Methods of designing a steel building. Calculating the various loads acting on a steel building – Vertical & Lateral loads – Effects of each loads separately and in combination – Dead, superimposed dead, live, temperature, MEP service loads – Lateral loads due to Wind and Seismic effects.
UNIT II SELECTION OF LOAD RESISTING SYSTEM AND MODELLING OF STRUCTURE
Studying the layout plans of the structure – Selection of load resisting systems – Load flow in each system – Satisfying Stability and strength of the structure – Vertical and Lateral load resisting systems – Analysis and design of Sway and non-sway frames – Manual and Computer aided modelling, analysis and design – Geometric and structural parameters of the structure – Loading the structure – Interpretation of the results of the software – Analysis and Design of a multi-storeyed building.
UNIT III DESIGN OF VARIOUS ELEMENTS OF A STEEL BUILDING
Manual and Software aided design – Beams, columns, floors, bracings, purlins/girts and facades, base plates and anchor bolts – Various loads, different conditions of supports, exposure, and purpose of use – Design of Connections between the members – bolted and welded, moment and shear connections
UNIT IV DESIGN OF AN INDUSTRIAL BUILDING
Functional requirements – Serviceability Requirements – Structural Configurations – Selection of sections as per requirements – Configuration of the elements, connectivity – Analysis and design of different types of trusses –– Design of Gantry Girders – Design of gable frames – Design of steel columns for combined loading – Analysis and design of industrial buildings – Study of General assembly drawings – Fabrication processes – Fabrication, logistics & erection – Sequence of erection – Inspection of a completed structure.
UNIT V DESIGN OF LIGHT GAUGE STEEL STRUCTURES
Philosophy of design of light gauge steel members, Direct Strength Method (DSM) ,Effective width method (EWM) – Concept of buckling, local buckling and post-buckling strength – Analysis and design of Compression members– Analysis and design of flexural members, Lateral buckling of beams, Shear Lag, Flange Curling – Design of wall panels
TOTAL : 45 PERIODS
