For the case of anchor bolts all the load combinations must be checked as shear
tension interaction governs the design.
Therefore the standard baseplate for the truss fixed joint to concrete has adequate
strength, and M30 anchor bolts satisfy the shear tension interaction limit stated in
the design criteria.

Backstay anchor bolts verification:

Although there is a slight over utilisation ratio of 1%, it is accepted due to the constraint
imposed in the design criteria to reduce the tension capacity of the anchor bolts
compared to the tabulated values in Table T9.2 of Design Capacity Tables for
Structural Steel
Calculating the bolt capacities according to Design Capacity Tables for Structural
Steel, we have:
The bolting category is 4.6/S.
The minimum tensile strength is 400 MPa.
The minimum yield strength is 240 MPa.
Bolt in shear with threads included in the shear plane

The bolt diameter is 42 mm.
The bolt tensile stress area is As =1121 mm.
The minor diameter area of the bolt is Ac = 1082 mm.
The plain shank area of the bolt is Ao = 1385.4 mm.
The capacity reduction factor is = 0.8
The bolt tension capacity is Ntf = 0.8 x 1121 x 400 / 1000 = 358.7 kN
The bolt shear capacity is Vfn = 0.8 x 0.62 x 400 x 1082 / 1000 = 214.7 kN
Therefore it is acceptable the overutilization ratio of 1% using the design criteria

specification.

Maximum Tension case calculations
The ULS axial tension force at the base plate is Nt* = 144.5 kN.
The head frame leg section is 150UC37.2, with respective section depth of 162 mm.
The base plate geometry is (depth x width x thick) 350 x 180 x 20 mm.
The anchor bolts pitch is 250 mm.
The flexible length in flexure of the base plate is 0.5 x (250 - 162) = 44 mm.
The associated bending moment in the base plate assuming reverse curvature is M*=
(144.5/2) x 44/2 = 1590 kNmm.
The base plate moment capacity is Mbp = 0.9 x 300 x 88 x 20^2 / 4 / 1000 = 2376
kNmm.
The utilisation ratio is UR = 1590/2376 = 0.67 < 1.0 OK.
The head stock section is 400WC181, with flange width of 400 mm, flange & web
thickness of 20 mm.
As there is a stiffener present, two way bending action occurs.
The flexible length in flexure of the head stock flange transverse direction is 125 - 0.5
x 20 = 115 mm.
The critical bending occurs in the beam headstock direction. The proportion of the
load to be supported in the flange/stiffener intersection is 1- (44 /115) = 0.62.
The associated bending moment in the flange is M*=0.62 x (144.5/2) x 44 = 1971
kNmm.
As the flange and base plate have the same thickness Mflg = 2376 kNmm.
The utilisation ratio is UR = 1971 / 2376 = 0.83 < 1.00 OK.
Therefore the standard base plate & head stock beam flange are OK.
Maximum Compression case calculations

In this case the compression from the end frame leg is a through force from the
column flanges to the stiffeners and therefore the base plate does not require further
calculations. The critical components of this connection are head stock web stiffeners.
The web stiffener thickness is 12 mm.

The web stiffener yield strength is 300 MPa.
The ULS compression force is Nc* = 401.8 kN. This force must be halved to be
distributed to each stiffener, i.e., Ncst* = 200.9 kN.
Calculations
The web clear depth is 390 - 2 x 20 = 350.0 mm.
The stiffener shear area is 350.0 x 12 = 4200.0 mm.
The shear buckling coefficient of the stiffener is [82 / ((350.0 / 12) (300 / 250))] =
6.59.
The design shear yield/buckling capacity of the stiffener is:
0.9 x 0.6 x MIN (6.59; 1.0) x 300 x 4200.0 / 1000 = 680.4 kN. OK.
The load is assumed as an end support.
The edge clearance to the flange edge is 10 mm.
The stiffener crop next to the web is 20 mm.
The stiffener bearing length, Bbf, is 0.5 x (400 - 20) - 10 - 20 = 160.
The stiffener bearing area is 160 x 12 = 1920 mm.
The design bearing yield capacity is 0.9 x 1.25 x 1920 x 300 / 1E3 = 648.0 kN. OK.
The web buckling width is 0.5 x (400 - 20) - 10 = 180 mm.
The web buckling area is 180 x 12 = 2160.0 mm.
The stiffener slenderness ratio is 2.5 x 350.0 / 12 = 72.9.
The section form factor, kf, is 1.
Buckling parameter n is 72.9 x 1 (300 / 250) = 79.9.
Buckling parameter a is 2100 x (79.9 - 13.5) / (79.9 - 15.3 x 79.9 + 2050) = 19.34.
Buckling parameter b is 0.5.
Buckling parameter is 79.9 + 19.34 x 0.5 = 89.6.
Buckling parameter is MAX (0.00326 x (89.6 - 13.5); 0.0) = 0.25.
Buckling parameter is [(89.6 / 90) + 1 + 0.25] / [2 x (89.6 / 90)] = 1.13
The slenderness reduction factor c is:
MIN( 1.13 x { 1 - [ 1 - ( 90 / ( 1.13 x 89.6 ) ) ] } ; 1.0 ) = 0.612.
The design buckling capacity is 0.9 x 0.612 x 1 x 575.0 x 12 x 300 / 1E3 = 356.9 kN.
OK.
The weld to web is 6 CFW SP.
The weld capacity per unit length is vw = 0.978 kN/mm.
The stiffener is to be welded to both sides.
The weld length is then 350 - 2 x 20 = 310 mm.
The total weld capacity is 2 x 310 x 0.978 = 606.4 kN. OK.
For the anchor bolts, all the load combinations must be verified as a shear-tension
interaction must be considered.
Therefore all the anchor bolts verify the shear-tension interaction.
1.6
Sliding Joints
According to vendor drawing no PW-4980-2-2, the sliding bearing capacities are as
follows;
From Space Gass we obtain the maximum forces of the two sliding joints in the
conveyor.
Therefore the sliding bearing capacities are adequate.

For the M24 Gr. 4.6 anchor bolts attached to the structure, each sliding joint must be
analysed for each load combination as this bolt groups is subjected to a torsional
moment induced by the lateral shear in the displaced position of the end frame leg.
Figure 1.2 : Sliding joint bolt group arrangement.
The bolt tension capacity is Ntf = 113.0 kN.

The bolt shear capacity with threads included in the shear plane is Vfn = 64.3 kN.
The bolt group pitch is 130 mm.
The bolt group gauge is 60 mm.
The number of bolts is nb=4
The polar moment of inertia is Ip = 4 x 302 + 4 x 652 = 20500 mm2.
The torsional moment in the bolt group is M* = V* x (ULS).
The shear per bolt in the X direction is V*xb = V* / nb + M* 65 / Ip.
The shear per bolt in the Y direction is V*yb = M* x 30 / Ip.
The resultant shear per bolt is Vtpb* = (V*xb 2 + V*yb 2).
For the worst case scenario, we have:
All the remaining load combinations are included in the next graph.
Therefore the anchor bolts are adequate.
