OUTLINE :
- Structural Steel: Different kinds of Steel, their Basic characteristics of Steel & Light Gauge Steel materials.
- Concepts of design of Steel Structures: Introduction to the concept of Working Stress Design and Load and Resistance Factor Design.
- Steel Structural Systems: Introduction to Rigid Portal Frames design of a one story industrial building 18M X 48m with two-bay mezzanine office floor. Project work to include a framing plan for both the industrial building and the mezzanine, an approximate design of structural frame elements, columns and beams. Introduction to available sections in structural steel used in the design of frame elements(Indicative).
- Introduction to National Building Code: IS 800: Criteria & Design to satisfy Building Codes and Standards, Dead and Live load calculations as per IS875 (Part1&2). Determine the general loads to be considered in the design of the structure, based on the type of occupancy for each area specified.
- Rigid Frames design-1: Properties of Indian standard rolled steel section and general framing arrangement of beams and columns for the one story 18M X 48m industrial building.
- Rigid Frames design-2: Design of Rigid frame including selection of frames according to the span, spacing and frame configuration using steel manuals.
- Composite Flooring Systems: Discussion on steel-concrete composite construction using steel beams, metal decking and concrete, including the role of shear connectors’ attachment to the beam for composite action.
- Composite flooring systems design for mezzanine: Loading and Analysis (Moment diagram to be provided) and design of composite steel decking with concrete topping.
- Rigid frame elements design-1: Steel Structural Column design using IS special publication for the design of steel structures [SP-6 (1)].
- Rigid frame elements design-2: Steel Structural Beams and trusses design using IS special publication for the design of steel structures [SP-6 (1)].
- Drawings and Specifications for the Rigid frame design: Structural design criteria, including loads used, calculations, drawings and detailing, and steel tonnage calculation.
- Field Inspection of Steel Construction Site: The project work to include documentation and a report about the observations, learning and findings at Site
Note: Minimum one plate on loading calculation on each Structural steel topic.
