General:-
The objective of this design note is to illustrate the design of the
precast concrete units in the project and the connection to the
base. Since the maximum spacing between expansion joints is limited
to 35m, building of size 12m x 35m is designed here.
As the EUROCODE & DEP do not deal with all possible cases, For
example, the clauses 6.2.2, 6.2.3(8)of EN 1992-1-1:2004+A1:2014 deal
with discontinuous corbel and there is no mention to deal with
continuous corbel as in our case. Hence, in general, the precast
concrete units are designed following the principles given in the
“PCI Design Handbook” with limiting values for stresses and all Load
factors as in EUROCODE.
Data:-
Density of concrete = 25 kN/M3.
Live Load on Roof = 5kN/m2.(Max.).
Roofing Layers Loads:
110mm avg. thick Light-weight concrete = 1 kN/m2. (for slope)
20mm thick Mortar + 1.52mm EPDM = 0.5 kN/m2.
100mm thick Insulation + P.E Vapour Barrier= 0.05 kN/m2.
Other finishes & Cable Trays = 1.45 kN/m2.
Total= 3.00 kN/m2.
DUE TO SELF-WEIGHT ::
TOP FIBRE = 19.9 BOTTOM FIBER = -49.27
SINCE Vc/2 < V < (Vc+0.4 x Bv D), PROVIDE MINIMUM LINKS AS BELOW.
PROVIDE 5 mm. Dia LINKS AT 200 mm. c/c
Mu = [1.35 x (7.0+5+9.0)+1.5 x 2.5] x 11.362/8 = 517.81 kN‐m. << Mr Hence safe.
Check for transfer of Horizontal shear at interface:- (Refer Clause 6.2.5 of EN 1992-1-1:2004)
As per EN 1992-1-1:2004+A1:2014, Clause 6.2.5,
At the interface, bi = 2480 mm. (Width of cross section at contact
surface being investigated)
z = (500+70-100-12.13) = 457.87 mm.
VEd = [1.35 x (7.0+5+9.0)+1.5 x 2.5] x 11.36/2 = 182.328 kN.
vEdi = 1.0 x 182328/(457.87x2480) = 0.160 MPa.
From Eq. (6.25) vRdi = 0.4x(1.8/1.5)+0.7x0.051+0 = 0.516 MPa. >> vEdi
Hence, the composite section is safe without any reinforcement steel links between DT and
Structural Topping concrete.

Check for Diaphragm Shear due to lateral forces: (See Sketch on Sheet 15)
Base shear coefficient Cs = 0.08 (For Seismic load)
For a given length of 2.5m along the length of Substation,
Weight of DT unit = 10.3 m x 7.0 kN/m = 72 kN.
Weight of Topping + Finishes = 10.3 m x (5+7.5)kN/m = 132 kN.
Live Load = 10.3 m x 12.5 kN/m = 130 kN.
Wall Weight = 2x7.45 m x2.5 m x0.2 m x25=186 kN.
Total Gravity loads = 72+132+130+186 = 520 kN./2.5m = 208 kN/m length.
Total Base Shear = 0.08 x 208 = 16.64 kN/m.
Total Wind force = 7.45 m x 1.8 kN/m2. = 13.41 kN/m.
Maximum Horizontal force = 16.64 kN/m.
Wind Load Shall not be combined with Seismic Loads.
Distance between Shear walls in a 35 m module = 35 m. Considering 60% - 40% distribution. &
See Figure 4.8.1 of PCI Design Handbook/seventh edition. 10% accidental over loading
VL = VR = 16.64 x 35 x 0.66 = 385 kN.(Max); M = 16.64 x 352/8 = 2548 kN-m.
Maximum Shear between Components = 2 x 2.5 x 385 / 35 = 55.00 kN.
Chord Force C = T = 2548 / 9.5 = 268 kN. (For a lever arm of 9.5m)
Area of Steel provided in the Topping Concrete to take up this force = 268000 / (0.6x420) = 1064 mm2.
Provide 716mm bars along the periphery of the slab in Topping concrete.
Connection between DT & Wall : (Connection C3, C3A – See Sheet 22, 23)
Number of Connections in 35 m = (35/2.5)x2 = 28 Nos. on each 35m side.
Force per Connection = 385 / 28 = 13.75 kN.
Length of 6mm filet weld required = 13750 / (0.7x6x115) = 28.5 mm.
Provide 100mm long Angle 80x80x8mm thick welded to plates on wall & DT rib, providing an effective
weld length of 200mm. (Capacity = 13.29x200/27.5 = 97 kN)
Capacity of 10mm @200mm c/c dowel bars in shear = 5x78.5x100/1000 = 39 kN/m
Capacity of 12mm @200mm c/c dowel bars in shear = 5x113x100/1000 = 56 kN/m
The steel frame will be removed by releasing the clamps and the wall
panel will be lifted & placed in position on the anchor bolts. The
verticality, position & alignment adjustments will be done using a
set of two push-pull props and connection will be established.
At Service Stage:-
Self-weight of wall = 6.45x0.30x25 = 48.4 kN/m.
Roof slab, DT, screed, water proofing etc. = 48.3 kN/m.
Roof Live Load = 1.0 kN/m2x 6m = 6.0 kN/m.
Eccentricity of the Roof load on wall = 12.5+13 = 25.5cm. Causing
tension in the outer face of the wall.
Moment due to eccentric roof loads = (48.3+6)x0.255 = 13.85 kN-m/m.
Moment due to Wind load = 1.8x5.52/8 = 6.8 kN-m/m causing compression
in the outer face of the wall.
However, it is considered to be adding with the eccentric roof load
moment – on a conservative side.
For the composite section, stresses in concrete due to working loads
are:
P/A = (48400+48300+6000)/(1000x200) = 0.51 MPa.
Ma = 13.85+6.8 = 20.65 kN-m/m.
Stress At the Inner face = 0.49 + (20.65x106/15049000) = 1.86 MPa.
Stress At Outer face = 0.49 – (20.65x106/12313000) = -1.19 MPa.
AS can be seen, these stresses are well within the limits of the
concrete capacity.
Design for Ultimate loads: Refer Clause 5.8.3 of EN 1992-1-1:2004+A1:2014.
For 1 m width of the Composite wall panel,
b = 1000mm; h = 140+100+60 = 300mm. fck = 30 MPa.
Properties of the Composite section:
I = (100x133/12)+1300x(13.5-6.5)2+(100x73/12)+700x132 = 203167 cm4.
Zi = 15049 cm3. And Zo = 12313 cm3.; radius of gyration r=10.08 cm.
Es = 20000 MPa.; Ec = 33000 MPa.; lo = 5600 mm.
lo/150 = 38 mm.
The wall is simply supported, The cross-section is constant over the
height of the wall.
Relative normal force n =(1.35(48.4+48.3)+1.5x6)/(200000x(30/1.5))
=0.0349
From Eq. (5.13N) of EN 1992-1-1:2004+A1:2014,
lim = 20x0.7x1.1x0.7/(0.0349)1/2 = 57.71.
From Eq. (5.14) of EN 1992-1-1:2004+A1:2014,
= 5600/100.8 = 55.56. < lim Hence, as per clause 5.8.3.1(1),
Second order effects need not be considered.
Axial Force NEd = 1.35x(48.4+48.3)+1.5x6 = 139.545 kN/m.
Max. Moment MEd = 1.5x20.65 = 30.975 kN-m/m.
From Clause 5.8.9(4) of EN 1992-1-1:2004+A1:2014,
NRd = [(200000-3x402)x(28/1.5)+3x402x(420/1.15)]/1000
= 4151 kN/m.
Hence, a=1.0
Ref. Clause 3.1.7 of EN 1992-1-1:2004+A1:2014,
MRd = 402x(420/1.15)x(266-2.94)/106 =38.62 kN-m/m. > MEd Hence OK.
