DESIGN OF CORBEL
( For crane girder support on CWPH Columns along Grid- A & C )

(i) Material Data

Strength of Concrete fck = 25 N/mm2

Strength of Steel fy = 500 N/mm2

Bearing Strength of Concrete ( sbr ) 0.45 * Fck = 0.45 x 25 = 11.25 N/mm2

Maximum Shear Stress tcmax = 3.1 N/mm2

( Table 20 of IS 456 )

(ii) Structure information / Dimension :

Width of Bearing Plate = b = 500 mm

Length of Bearing Plate (l), = Fv / ( sbr * b )

520.08 x 10^3 /(11.25 * 500 ) = 92.46 mm

Let l = 500 mm
Adopting 500 x 500mm Bearing Plate

Width of Column = B = 600 mm

Clear Cover = Cc = 50 mm

Dia of Rebar = f = 25 mm

(iii) Loading information :

The following loads are obtained as support reactions (with impact factor) from the Analysis and
Design of Crane girder. Refer Doc. no. PE-DC-314-653-C002.

Vertical Load on the Corbel = Fv = 346.72 kN

Horizontal Load on the Corbel = Fh = 22.46 kN

Longitudinal Load on the Corbel = Fl = 15.46 kN

Factored Loads for Design:

Factored Vertical Load on the Corbel = Fv,u = 346.72 x 1.5

= 520.08 kN

Factored Horizontal Load on the Corbel = Fh,u = 22.46 x 1.5

= 33.69 kN

Factored Longitudinal Load on the Corbel = Fl,u = 15.46 x 1.5

= 23.19 kN

Part – 3 – Design of Columns, Isolated Footings, Tie Beams at EL (-) 4.500, Grade Beams , Corbel and RC Wall.

CALCULATIONS :

Assume Shear Stress = tc = 2.5 N/mm2

Depth of Corbel = Fv / ( tc * B )

d = 520.08 x 10e3 / ( 2.5 x 600 ) = 346.72 mm

Overall Depth of Corbel D = d + Cc + f 346.72+50+25 = 421.72 mm

Adopting overall Depth of Corbel D = 700 mm

d = 700 - 50 - 25/2 = 637.50 mm

Check for Strut Action:

For Struct action in the Corbel, (av / d) ratio should be less than 0.6.

Distance of load from the face of the Column av = 300 mm

av / d = 300 / 637.50 = 0.471

< 0.6
Hence the member acts as a Corbel with Strut action

Determination of Lever Arm:

To determine the Lever arm, the following quadratic equation is solved.

(z/d)2 - [r / (r+k)].(z/d) + [k / (r+k)].r2 = 0

k = (520.08x 1000) /(0.88*600*638*25) = 0.062
r = av / d = 0.471

The co-efficients of quadratic equation are,

Ax2 + Bx + C = 0
x = (z/d)
A = 1
B = - 0.47/(0.47+0.062) = -0.884
C = 0.062/(0.47+0.062)*0.47^2 = 0.026

x = [ -B ± √(B2 - 4AC) ] / 2A
x = (z/d) = 0.854

Lever Arm, z = 0.854 x 638 = 544.30 mm

Determination of Neutral Axis (Xu):

Location of Compressive force from top compressive edge of the cross-section '0.45Xu' shall be
written as,
(d - z) = 0.45Xu

Depth of Neutral Axis (Xu) = (d - z) / 0.45

= ( 637.5 - 544.3 ) / 0.45 = 207.11 mm

Xu,max / d = = 0.0035/(0.0055+0.87Fy/Es) = 0.456

Xu,max = 0.456 x 638 = 290.72 mm

Xu < Xu,max Hence ok.

Tensile force along Horizontal Direction,

Ft = Fv ( av / z )
= 520.08 x ( 300 / 544.30 ) = 286.65 kN

Fv / 2 = 520.08 / 2 = 260.04 kN

Ft should be atleast Fv/2

Here, Ft > (Fv /2) \ Ft = 286.65 kN

Determination of Area of Tension Steel:

Strain in tension Steel, es = 0.0035 ( d - Xu ) / Xu = 0.0073

>
0.87fy / Es = 0.0022
Hence Steel reaches yield.

Stress in Steel = fs = 0.87 x 500

= 435 N/mm2
Area of Steel required, Ast = ( Fv,u +Fh,u ) / fs

Ast = ( 286.65 + 33.69 ) x 1000 / 435 = 710.60 mm2

Check for Minimum & Maximum Area of Steel:

Minimum Percentage of Steel in Corbels = 0.40%

Astmin = 0.40% x 600 x 637.50 = 1530 mm2

Ast < Astmin, Hence Provide Minimum reinforcement

Maximum Percentage of Steel in Corbels = 1.30%

Astmax = 1.30% x 600 x 637.50 = 4972.5 mm2

As < Ast,max, Hence ok

Hence Area of Steel required = 1530 mm2

Diameter of Rebar provided = 25 mm

Provided Number of 25mm dia. Bars = 5 nos.

Hence reinforcement provided, Astprov. = 2454.37 mm2

Astprov. > Astmin HENCE SAFE

Hence provide 5 nos. of 25mm dia. Bars for Main Reinforcement

Area of Horizontal(Longitudinal) Shear Steel:

Asu = Fl,u / fs = 23.19 / 435 x 1000

= 53.31 mm2

Minimum Area of Shear steel = Astprov. / 2 = 355.30009 mm2

Hence Area of Steel required = 355.30009 mm2

Diameter of Rebar provided = 12 mm

Provided Number of 12mm dia. Bars = 4 nos.

Hence reinforcement provided, Astprov. = 452.39 mm2

Astprov. > Astmin HENCE SAFE

Hence provide 4 nos. of 12mm dia. Bars

( in the upper two-third depth)

Shear capacity of Section

Shear capacity of Concrete

Percentage of Main Steel = 2454.37x100/(600 x 638) = 0.64%

Nominal Shear Stress tc = 0.54 N/mm2

Enhancement factor = 2 x d / av
for Shear Stress, f
= 2 x 637.50 / 300.0 = 4.25

t c1 = f x tc
= 4.25 x 0.54 = 2.29 N/mm2

tc1 < tc,max HENCE OK

Shear Capacity of concrete = tc1 * b * d

= ( 2.29 x 600 x 638 ) / 1000 = 877.29 kN

Shear capacity of Steel:

Diameter of stirrups provided = 12 mm

Number of legs = 2 nos.
Spacing of Stirrups provided, sv = (700-50-50)/5
= 120 mm

Area of Shear reinforcement provided, Asv = 226.19 mm2

Shear Capacity of Steel = (0.87 fy.Asv.d) / sv

= (0.87x500x226.19x637.5)/120 = 522.71 kN

Total Shear Capacity (Vu) = 877.29 + 522.71 = 1400.01 kN

Vu > Fvu = 520.08kN
