(Ref. Page 87 of IS : 800, 1984)

Here, R = Beam end reaction, Fbr= Permissible bearing strength of web = 187.5 Mpa So, B= 133.3 mm From the figure it is clear that b = B - 3h2 (As per IS : 800, b 0.5*B) b = 61.89 mm < 0.5* B So let's consider b = 66.67 mm Asuming a clearance of 12 mm between the beam end & column, width of seat plate required = 66.67 + 12 = 78.67 mm, Use 90 mm The thickness of seat plate may be kept equal to that of beam flange. So the assumed thickness of seat plate is The stiffening plate thickness should at least be equal to that of beam web, that is OK

11.2 mm, so provide 12 mm thick vertical plate.

Design of Beam End Connection Type : Stiffened Seat Connection (Welded) Part : Floor Elevation : Reference drawing no. : Connection marked in the drawing :

Welds Flange width of beam = 150 mm & flange width of column = y1= 77.97 mm & 125 mm, Use 125 mm length seat plate. 12 125 Ixx= 2214425 mm3 On a stiffening seat, the length of eccentricity e is measured from the edge of the stiffening plate. 56.67 mm & M = 15866.667 kN-mm R Vertical shear on welds qv = = 545.8 N/mm per mm length L Horizontal shear on welds qh = M*y1 Ixx = 558.7 N/mm per mm length = 781 N/mm y2 So, e = y1 (Here L is the total length of welds ) X 200 X 12 Fig. - 2 : Welds of Stiffened Seat Note : Theoritically the maximum stress in weld will occur at the bottom of weld, but it is considered that the nature of connection doesn't permit a compression failure. An ISA 100 X 100 X 6 mm clip angle is used at the top to restrain the beam laterally

From Fig. - 2 it can be obtained that

y2= 122.0 mm

Resultant shear per unit length of weld q = (qv2+qh2)

As these welds are made in workshop, allowable shear stress may be taken as 108 N/mm 2 as per IS : 816. Now, if the size of weld is S S X 108 = q So, S = 10.23 mm 2 Therefore, use 12 mm size welds.
