LOADING CRITERIA

Dead loads
Load on level +000 (weight from ladder) = 1370.44lb/ft
Load on level +3350 (weight from septic tanks) = 221.39ib/ft2
Load on level +6115 (weight from life boat) = 2585.3lb
Imposed loads
An imposed load of 52.21lb/ft2 was adopted
For limit state design codes, partial safety factors are:
Dead load =1.4, & imposed load =1.6,
Wind loads
wind loads of 100.8Km/hr was adopted, calculated as per ASCE-7 adopting exposure
with no
obstructions.
Wave impact loads
wind loads of 9.23lb/ft was adopted(see wave analysis for details)
This value was manually calculated using Morisons theory for wave impact loads, and
where applied
as dynamic loads acting along the cross-section of members

DIMENSIONS FOR HOT ROLLED STEEL
BEAM, COLUMN, CHANNEL AND
ANGLE SECTIONS
( Third Revision )
1 SCOPE
This standard covers the nominal dimensions, weight and
mass and sectional properties of hot rolled
sloping flange beam and column sections, beams sections
sloping and parallel flange channel sections
and equal and unequal leg angle sections.

The Indian Standard IS 1852 : 1985 �eRolled and
cutting tolerances for hot rolled steel products
( fourth revision )�f is a necessary adjunct to this
standard.
SECTION 1 GENERAL
3 TERMINOLOGY
3.1 Y-Y Axis
A line parallel to the axis of the web of the
section (in the case of beams and channels) or
parallel to the axis of the longer flange (in the
case of unequal angles) or either flange (in the
case of equal angles) and passing through the
centre of gravity of the profile of the section.
3.2 X-X Axis
A line passing through the centre of gravity of
the profile of the section, and at right angles to
the Y-Y axis.
3.3 U-U and V-V Axes
Lines passing through the centre of gravity of
the profile of the section, representing the
principal axes of angle sections.
4 SYMBOLS
4.1 Letter symbols used in this standard have
been indicated appropriately in Sections 2 to 6.
More explicit definitions for certain symbols,
used in the figures and tables of Sections 2 to 6
are given in 4.1.1 and 4.1.2.
4.1.1 Symbols for Dimensions
4.2.2 Symbols for Sectional Properties
A, B = the longer and the shorter leg length
of angle section, respectively;
B = flange width of beam, column or
channel sections;
D = depth of beam, column or channel
section;
R1 = radius at fillet or root;
R2 = radius at toe;
t = thickness of web of beam, column or
channel section; thickness of leg of
angle section; and
T = thickness of flange of beam, column
