FOREWORD The Eurocodes are being prepared to harmonize design procedures between countries which are members of CEN (European Committee for Standardization) and have been published initially as ENV documents (European pre-standards - prospective European Standards for provisional application). The Eurocode for composite construction (referred to in this publication as EC4) is: ENV 1994-1-1: Eurocode 4 Design of composite steel and concrete structures Part 1.1: General rules and rules for buildings The national authorities of the member states have issued National Application Documents (NAD) to make the Eurocodes operative whilst they have ENV-status. This publication "Composite Beams and Columns to Eurocode 4" has been prepared by the ECCS-Technical Committee 11 to provide simplified guidance on composite beams and columns in supplement to EC4 and to facilitate the use of EC4 for the design of composite buildings during the ENV-period. "Composite Beams and Columns to Eurocode 4" contains those rules from EC4 that are likely to be needed for daily practical design work. It is a self-standing document and contains additional information as simplified guidance, design tables and examples. References to EC4 are given in [ 1. Any other text, tables or figures not quoted from EC4 are deemed to satisfy the rules specified in EC4. In case of doubt, when rules are missing (e.g. for the design of composite slabs, etc.) or when more detailed rules are required, EC4 should be consulted in conjunction with the National Application Document for the country in which the building project is situated.

This publication presents useful information and worked examples on the design of composite beams and columns to Eurocode 4 ‘Design of composite steel and concrete structures’ (ENV 1994-1-1). The information is given in the form of a concise guide on the relevant aspects of Eurocode 4 that affect the design of composite beams and columns normally encountered in general building construction. Each section of the publication reviews the design principles, gives design formulae and makes cross-reference to the clauses of Eurocode 4. Information on the design of composite slabs is also given, although the publication concentrates on the influence of the slab on the design of the composite beam. Pesign aids are also presented to assist in selecting the size of steel beams to be used in certain applications. Worked examples cover the design of composite beams with full and partial shear connection, continuous beams, and composite columns.

INTRODUCTION Eurocode 4 Part 1.1 deals with the ‘design of composite steel and concrete structures’. The publication ‘Composite beams and columns to Eurocode 4’ presents simplified guidance in accordance with the main Eurocode, but concentrates on the common forms of structure that are encountered in building construction. Although the publication retains the principles and application rules of the Eurocode, it is not written in a code format because of the need to offer further explanation on the design principles. It is intended that each section is read as a design guide with cross-reference to the relevant clauses in EC4 (or EC3 or EC2, as appropriate). Because of this less formal presentation it is possible to introduce additional information and design aids in the form of tables and graphs. Part 1 of the document covers the design methods for composite beams and composite columns. Also given are some design tables for composite beams using standard steel sections. Part 2 presents a number of fully worked examples for simply supported and continuous composite beams, and composite columns.

1.1

Scope of Publication A decision was made to limit the scope of the publication to the information that

’90% of designers will need 90% of the time’. In this sense, simply supported or continuous beams in braced construction are most typical of modern buildings. Similarly, composite beams are increasingly associated with composite slabs, rather than solid slabs. Composite columns are also increasingly popular. In summary, the document covers the following aspects in detail: Composite beams with composite or solid slabs Braced frames (non-sway) Simply supported (simple) connections Continuous beams (or with connections equivalent to the moment resistance of the beam) Welded stud shear connectors Full or partial shear connection Class 1 or 2 sections (class 3 webs are permitted for continuous beams) Composite columns (encased I sections or concrete filled sections) under axial load Composite columns with moments using simplified interactions Partially encased sections

The document makes only general reference (and does not include detailed information) on: Global analysis of composite frames Design of connections Behaviour of composite slabs Cracking in concrete Other forms of shear connector Use of precast concrete slabs Lightweight concrete Lateral-torsional buckling Fire resistance aspects General analysis of composite columns Specifically excluded is the use of: Non-uniform cross-sections Class 3 or 4 sections Sway frames Partial strength connections 1.2

Cross-referencing This publication is to be read as a self standing document and cross-refers to other sections within the text. To aid cross-referencing to Eurocode 4 (EC4) or other Eurocodes, the source clauses in these Eurocodes are presented in brackets at the start of each section, or adjacent to the relevant part of the text. All references to Eurocodes or EN standards or other important publications are listed in full at the back of the publication.

1.3

Partial safety factors National authorities are able to select partial safety factors on loads and materials which are given as ‘boxed values’ in the Eurocodes. Because this document is intended to be read throughout Europe the recommended boxed values have been used in the text, Worked Examples and Design Tables. Further information on partial safety factors is given in Sections 3 and 4.3.

INITIAL DESIGN Composite beams comprise I or H section steel beams attached to a ’solid’ or ’composite’floor slab by use of shear connectors. Composite slabs comprise profiled steel decking which supports the self weight of the wet concrete during construction and acts as ’reinforcement’ to the slab during in-service conditions. Composite beams behave as a series of T beams in which the concrete is in compression when subject to positive moment and the steel is mainly in tension. The beams may be designed as simply-supported, or as continuous over a number of supports. The relative economy of ’simple’ or ’continuous’ construction depends on the benefits of reduced section size and depth in relation to the increased complexity of the design and the connections in continuous construction. Composite beams may be designed to be unpropped for reasons of speed of construction. Propped construction may be appropriate where it is necessary to control deflections of the steel beam during construction. The sizing of the composite beam is independent of the form of construction provided the steel beam is able to support the loads developed during concreting. The following recommendations are made for initial sizing of composite beams. It is important to recognise the difference between secondary beams which directly support the decking and composite slab and primary beams which support the secondary beams as point loads. Primary beams usually receive greater loads than secondary beams and therefore are usually designed to span a shorter distance for the same beam size. Alternatively, long span primary beams, such as composite trusses, can be designed efficiently with short span secondary beams. These cases are illustrated in Figure 2.1. General features: Slab depth

-

typically 120mm to 180mm depending on fire resistance, structural and other requirements

Slab span

-

2.5m to 3.5m unpropped 3.5m to 5.5m propped subject to maximum span: depth ratio of 35 for a slab with continuity at one end (see Section 5 for further guidance).

Grid sizes

-

primary and secondary beams can be designed for approximately the same depth when grid dimensions are in proportion of 1 : lV2 respectively

Beam design The following beam proportions should give acceptable deflections when the section size is determined for moment resistance. a)

b)

Simply supported Secondary beam

-

span: depth ratio of 18 to 20 (depth = total beam and slab depth)

Primary beam

-

span: depth ratio of 15 to 18

Secondary beam

-

span: depth ratio of 22 to 25 (end bays)

Primary beam

-

span: depth ratio of 18 to 22

Continuous

Steel grade

-

higher grade steel (Fe 510) usually leads to smaller beam sizes than lower grade steel (Fe 360 or Fe 430)

Concrete grade

-

C 25/30 for composite beams.

Shear connectors

-

19mm diameter welded stud connectors are placed typically at 150mm spacing. These studs can be welded through the steel decking up to 1.25mm thick. 22mm diameter welded stud connectors where throughdeck welding is not used.

ACTIONS AND COMBINATION RULES FOR DESIGN

3.1

Fundamental Requirements [2.1] A structure shall be designed and constructed in such a way that: 0

with acceptable probability, it will remain fit for the use for which it is required, having due regard to its intended life and its cost, and

0

with appropriate degrees of reliability, it will sustain all actions and influences likely to occur during execution (ie. construction period) and subsequent use, and have adequate durability in relation to maintenance costs.

A structure shall also be designed in such a way that it will not be damaged by events

like explosions, or impact or consequences of human error to an extent disproportionate to the original cause.

3.2

Definitions and Classifications [2.2] Limit States Limit states are states beyond which the structure no longer satisfies the design performance requirements. Limit states are classified into: a 0

ultimate limit states serviceability limit states.

Ultimate limit states are those associated with collapse, or with other forms of structural failure which may endanger the safety of people. Serviceability limit states correspond to states beyond which specified in-service criteria are no longer met by the structure. Actions Definitions and principal classification*)' An action (F) is:

*)l

0

a force (load) applied to the structure (direct action), or

0

an imposed deformation (indirect action); for example, temperature effects or differential settlement.

Fuller definitions of the classification of actions will be found in the Eurocode for Actions. Page 14

Actions are classified as: 0

permanent actions (G), eg. self-weight of structures, fittings, and fixed equipment.

0

variable actions (Q), eg. imposed loads, wind loads or snow loads.

e

accidental actions (A), eg. explosions or impact from vehicles.

Characteristic values of actions F, are specified a

in the Eurocode for Actions or other relevant loading codes, or

0

by the client, or the designer in consultation with the client, provided that the minimum provisions specified in the relevant loading codes or by the competent authority are observed.

The design value F, of an action is expressed in general terms as:

Design Requirements [2.3]

3.3.1 General It shalI be verified that no relevant limit state is exceeded. All relevant design situations and load cases shall be considered, including those at the construction phase. Possible deviations from the assumed directions or positions of actions shall be considered. Calculations shall be performed using appropriate design models (supplemented, if necessary, by tests) involving all relevant variables. The models shall be sufficiently precise to predict the structural behaviour, commensurate with the standard of workmanship likely to be achieved, and with the reliability of the information on which the design is based.

3.3.2 Ultimate limit state Verification conditions When considering a limit state of failure of a section, member or connection (fatigue excluded), it shall be verified that:

Page 15

r

where s d is the design value of an internal force or moment (Or of a respective vector of several internal forces or moments) and Rd is the corresponding design resistance, associating all structural properties with the respective design values. Combination of actions For each load case, design values for the effects of actions shall be determined from combination rules involving design values of actions, as identified by Table 3.1. The most unfavourable combinations are considered at each critical location of the structure, for example, at the points of maximum negative or positive moment. In Table 3.1 a combination factor of 0.9 is taken into account. Eurocodes permit the use of other combination factors, if reliable load data are is available. Load combinations to be considered:

permanent actions, eg. self weight variable actions, eg. imposed loads on floors, snow loads, wind loads the variable action which causes the largest effect at a given location

* If the dead load G counteracts the variable action Q:

partial safety factor for permanent actions partial safety factor for variable actions

**

If a variable load Q counteracts the dominant loading:

Yo = 0

Design of Steel Beams The steel beam is to be designed in accordance with Eurocode 3. The loads to be considered shall include the self weight of the beam and slab and an additional load taking account of the construction operation. Although no information is given in EC4 on these additional construction loads to be used in the design of the steel beams, it is consistent with the design of slabs to assume a construction load of 0.75 kN/m’ in the design of the beams.

MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION

4.1

Description of Forms of Construction

4.1.1 Types of column Composite columns may be of the form shown in Figure 4.1. There are two main types; concrete encased (totally or partially), and concrete-filled columns.

Figure 4.1

Types of column

4.1.2 Types of beam Composite beams may be of the form shown in Figure 4.2. Beams are usually of IPE or HE section (or UB or UC section). Partial encasement of the steel section provides increased fire resistance and resistance to buckling.

Figure 4.2

Types of beam

Shear connectors between the slab and beam provide the necessary longitudinal shear transfer for composite action. The shear connection of the steel beam to a concrete slab can either be by full or partial shear connection. This action is considered in Section 6. Page 18

4.1.3 Types of slab Slabs are either: e e

concrete slabs: composite slabs:

Prefabricated, or cast in situ, or Profiled steel decking and concrete (see Section 5).

Slabs are generally continuous but are often designed as a series of simply supported elements spanning between the beams.

4.1.5 Types of erection Beams and/or profiled steel sheets may be either propped or unpropped during concreting of the slab. The most economic method of construction is generally to avoid the use of temporary propping. Propping is needed where the steel beam is not able to support the weight of a thick concrete slab during construction, or where deflection of the steel beam would otherwise be unacceptable. 4.1.6 Types of connection There are many types of connection. Some examples are given in Figure 4.6 for beam-to-column and beam-to-beam connections. In design to EC4, the two forms of connection generally envisaged are (i) nominally pinned or (ii) rigid and full strength. No application rules are given for partial strength connections, as defined in EC4 [4.10 5.31.

In Figures 4.6(b) and (c), the connections may be considered to be rigid, but may or may not develop the full strength of the composite section. In the case of Figure 4.6(c) the connection is pinned in the construction stage, but is made moment resisting by the slab reinforcement and fitting pieces which transfer the necessary tension and compression forces.

Where the member resistance is influenced by the buckling of the structural steel section, a specific safety factor YRd = [ l . 101 is recommended [2.2.3.2(2)], [4.6.3], [4.8.3.2]. When the design value Rd is determined by tests, refer to Eurocode 4.

COMPOSITE OR CONCRETE SLABS

5.1

Introduction This section reviews the different forms of concrete slab that may be used in conjunction with composite beams, and the factors that influence the design of the beams. The detailed design of composite slabs, which is covered in chapter 7 of EC4, is not treated here. Three types of concrete slab are often used in combination with composite beams. These three types are listed as follows: 0

*

0

Solid slab: This is a slab with no internal voids or rib openings, normally cast-in place using traditional wooden formwork. Composite slab: This is a slab which is cast-in-place using decking (coldformed profiled steel sheeting) as permanent formwork to the concrete slab. When ribs of the decking have a re-entrant shape and/or are provided with embossments that can transmit longitudinal forces between the decking arid the concrete, the resulting slab acts as a composite slab in the direction of the decking ribs. Precast concrete slab: This is a slab consisting of prefabricated concrete units and cast-in-place concrete. There are two forms that may be used: Thin precast concrete plate elements of approximately 50mm thickness are used as a formwork for solid slabs or alternatively, deep precast concrete elements are used for longer spans with a thin layer of cast-in-place concrete as a wearing surface. Deep precast concrete units often have hollow cores which serve to reduce their dead weight. The units may be designed to act compositely with ‘the steel beams, but this aspect is outside the scope of this document.

No further information is given on solid or pre-cast concrete slabs in this section. In the design of composite slabs the following aspects have to be considered:

*

The cross-sectional geometry of the slab: In some cases the full crosssectional area of the slab cannot be used for composite beam calculations. A reduced or “effective”cross-sectional area must be calculated. Formulae for determining effective slab widths are given in Section 6.1.3.

0

The influence of the slab on the shear connection between the slab and the beam: Stud behaviour and maximum strength may be modified due to the shape of the ribs in the slab (see Section 6.3.2.2). The correct placement of studs relative to ribs is of great importance.

e

The quantity and placement of transverse reinforcement: Transverse reinforcement is used to ensure that longitudinal shear failure or splitting of the concrete does not occur before failure of the composite beam itself.

Initial Slab Design

5.2.1 Proportions of composite slab A typical composite slab is shown in Figure 5.1. In general such slabs consist of:

decking (cold formed profiled steel sheeting), concrete and light mesh reinforcement. There are many types of decking currently marketed in Europe. These can be, however, broadly classified into two groups: 0

Re-entrant rib geometries. An example of such a profile is shown in Figure 5. I. Note that embossments are often placed on the the top flange of the deck.

0

Open or trapezoidal rib geometries. An example of such a profile is shown in Figure 5.2. Note that embossments are often placed on the webs of the deck.

Slab depths range from 100 to 200mm; 120 to 180mm being the most common depending on the fire resistance requirements. Decking rib geometries may vary considerably in form, width and depth. Typical rib heights, h,, are between 40mm and 85mm. Centre-line distances between ribs generally vary between 150mm and 300mm. Embossment shapes and sheet overlaps also vary between decking manufacturers. Page 26

generally vary between 150mm and 300mm. Embossment shapes and sheet overlaps also vary between decking manufacturers. In general, the sheet steel is hot-dipped galvanised with 0.02mm of zinc coating on each side. The base material is cold-formed steel with thicknesses between 0.75mm and 1.5mm. The yield strength of the steel is in the range of 220 to 350N/mm2. Deeper decks permit longer spans to be concreted without the need for propping. Ribs deeper than 85mm, however, are not treated in this document. For such ribs composite action with the steel beam may be significantly reduced, thus requiring special attention.

5.2.2 Construction condition Normally, decking is first used as a construction platform. This means that it supports construction operatives, their tools and other material commonly found on construction sites. Good construction practice requires that the decking sheets be attached to each other and to all permanent supports using screws or shot-fired nails. Next, the decking is used as formwork so that it supports the weight of the wet concrete, reinforcement and the concreting gang. The maximum span length of the decking without propping can be calculated according to the rules given in Part 1.3 of EC3. Characteristic loads for the construction phase are 1.5 kN/m2 on any 3 metres by 3 metres area and 0.75 kN/m2 on the remaining area, in addition to the self weight of the slab. Typically, decking with a steel thickness of 1.2mm, and a rib height of 60mm, can span between 3m and 3.5m without propping.

50 Figure 5.2

Typical composite slab using a trapezoidal deck profile, showing the main geometrical parameters

5.2.3 Composite action After the concrete has hardened, composite action is achieved by the combination of chemical bond and mechanical interlock between the steel decking and the concrete. The chemical bond is unreliable and is not taken into account in design. Composite slab design is generally based on information provided by the decking manufacturer, Page 27

in the form of allowable imposed load tables. These values are determined from test results and their interpretation as required in EC4 clause 10.3. In most catalogues the resistance to imposed load is given as a function of decking type and steel sheet thickness, slab thickness, span length and the number of temporary supports. Generally, these resistances are well in excess of the applied loads, indicating that composite action is satisfactory or that the design is controlled by other limitations. However, care should be taken to read the catalogue for any limitations or restrictions due to dynamic loads, and concentrated point and line loads. 5.2.4 Deflections [7.6.2.2] Deflection calculations in reinforced concrete are notoriously inaccurate, and therefore some approximations are justified to obtain an estimate for the deflections of a composite slab. The stiffness of a composite slab may be calculated from the cracked section properties of a reinforced concrete slab, by treating the cross-sectional area of decking as an equivalent reinforcing bar. However, if the maximum ratio of span length to slab depth is within the limits of Table 5.1 no deflection check is needed. The end span should be considered as the general case for design. In this case it is assumed that minimum anti-crack reinforcement exists at the supports. Experience shows that imposed load deflections do not exceed span/350 when using the span to depth ratios shown in Table 5.1. More refined deflection calculations will lead to greater span to depth ratios than those given in Table 5.1. Maximum Span: Depth ratios Normal weight concrete Light weight concrete

5.3

Influence of Decking on the Design of Composite Beams Profiled steel change decking performs a number of important roles, and influences the design of the composite beam in a number of ways. It: 0

may provide lateral restraint to the steel beams during construction;

0

causes a possible reduction in the design resistance of the shear connectors;

0

acts as transverse reinforcement leading to a reduction in the amount of bar reinforcement needed.

These factors are addressed more fully in Section 6. The orientation of the sheeting is important. Decking ribs may be oriented in two ways with respect to the composite beam:

Page 28

Decking ribs transverse to the steel beam, as shown in Figure 5.3. The decking may be discontinuous (Figure 5.3a), or continuous (Figure 5.3b) over the top flange of the beam. e

Decking ribs parallel to the steel beam, as shown in Figure 5.4.

The shear connectors may be welded through the decking, or placed in holes formed in the troughs of the decking. In the latter case the shear connectors can also be welded to the steel beam off-site. When the through welding procedure is used on site, studs may not be welded through more than one sheet and overlapping of sheets is not permitted.

5.3.1 Ribs transverse to the beam The concrete slab in the direction of the beam is not a homogeneous (solid) slab. This has important consequences for the design of the composite beam, as only the depth of concrete over the ribs acts in compression. Additionally, there is often a significant influence on the resistance of the shear connectors due to the shape of the deck profile.

Figure 5.3

Decking ribs transverse to the beam

5.3.2 Ribs parallel to the beam In the construction phase, decking with this orientation is not considered effective in resisting lateral torsional buckling of the steel beam. In this case, the complete cross-section of the slab may be used in calculating the moment resistance of the beam. The orientation of the ribs also implies that there will be little reduction in the resistance of the studs due to the ribs in the concrete slab.

Page 29

Detailing Rules for Shear Connectors Welded Through Profiled Steel Decking [6.4.3.1]

5.4.1 Welding and spacing of studs When the decking is continuous and transverse to the beam (Figure 5.3a), the correct placement of studs in relation to the decking rib is of great importance. The most important rules for welded headed studs are repeated here: Welded headed studs are normally between 19mm and 22mm in diameter. Stud diameters up to 19mm are generally used for through deck welding only. For welded studs the upper flange of the steel beam should be clean, dry and unpainted. For satisfactory welding, the deck thickness should not exceed 1.25mm if galvanized, or 1S m m if ungalvanized. In all cases, welding trials shall be performed. The following limitations should also be observed: 0

The flange thickness of the supporting beams should not be less than 0.4 times the diameter of the studs, unless the studs are located directly over the web.

0

After welding, the top of the stud should extend at least 2 times diameter of the stud above the top of the decking ribs and should have a concrete cover of at least 20mm.

0

The minimum distance between the edge of the stud and the edge of the steel flange is 20mm.

0

The transverse spacing between studs should not be less than 4 times the diameter of the stud.

0

The longitudinal spacing between studs should not be less than 5 times the stud diameter and not greater than six times the overall slab depth nor 800mm [6.4.3(3)]. Page 30

5.4.2 Additional requirements for steel decking Studs must be properly placed in decking ribs. A summary of these rules are shown in Figure 5 . 5 , and listed below: e

Studs are usually attached in every decking rib, in alternate ribs, or in some cases, in pairs in every rib. If more studs are needed than are given by a standard pattern these additional studs should be positioned in equal numbers near the two ends of the span.

e

Some modem decks have a central stiffener in the rib which means that it is impossible to attach the stud centrally. In such cases it is recommended that studs are attached to the side of each stiffener closest to the end of the beam shown as the favourable side in Figure 5.5. This means that a change in location at midspan is needed.

e

Alternatively, studs can be ‘staggered’ so that they are attached on each side of the stiffener in adjacent ribs.

0

At discontinuities in the decking, studs should be attached in such a way that both edges of the decking at the discontinuity are properly ‘anchored’. If the decking is considered to act as transverse reinforcement this may mean placing studs in a zigzag pattern along the beam, as shown in Figure 5.5.

The minimum distance of the centre of the stud to the edge of the decking is defined in EC4 7.6.1.4(3) as 2.2 times the stud diameter. Similar rules may be established for other forms of shear connectors such as shotfired cold-formed angles.

5.5

Minimum Transverse Reinforcement Transverse reinforcement must be provided in the slab to ensure that longitudinal shearing failure or splitting does not occur before the failure of the composite beam itself (see Section 6.3.5). The decking is not allowed to participate as transverse reinforcement unless there is an effective means of transferring tension into the slab, such as by through-deck welding of the shear connectors. Where the decking is continuous, the decking is effective in transferring tension and can act as transverse reinforcement. This is not necessarily the case if the ribs are parallel to the beam because of overlaps in the sheeting.

Minimum amounts of transverse reinforcement are required. The reinforcement should be distributed uniformly. The minimum amount is 0.002 times the concrete section above the ribs.

ULTIMATE LIMIT STATE OF COMPOSITE BEAMS

6.1

Basis of Design of Composite Beams

6.1.1 General [4.1] The following clauses outline the design rules for composite beams. The treatment is largely restricted to Class 1 and Class 2 sections which are capable of developing their plastic moment of resistance without local buckling problems. Partially encased beams are also included. The majority of composite beams encountered in practice are thereby covered. Composite structures and members should be so proportioned as to satisfy the basic design requirements for the ultimate limit state using the appropriate partial safety factors and load combinations. Continuous composite beams may be analysed in all cases by elastic global analysis, and Class 1 beams by plastic hinge analysis.

Critical cross-sections are for example the sections I, I1 and I11 shown in Figure 6.2, and also sections subjected to heavy concentrated loads or reactions. In case of single span beams, subject to uniform load, no bending moment - vertical shear interaction has to be considered.

6.1.3 Effective width of the concrete flange [4.2.2] The effective width be, for elastic global analvsis may be assumed to be constant over the whole of each span. It may be taken as the value at midspan (beam supported at both ends), or as the value at the support (cantilever). The effectivebreadth for verification of cross-sections should be taken as the midspan value (for sections in positive bending), or as the value at the support (for sections in negative bending).

6.1.4 Classification of cross-sections [4.3] 6.1.4.1

General Composite beams are classified into 4 Classes depending on the local buckling behaviour of the steel flange and/or the steel web in compression.

Page 35 ~

The classification system of cross-sections of composite beams is as follows: Class 1 (plastic) cross-sections are those which can form a plastic hinge with sufficient rotation capacity for plastic hinge analysis. Class 2 (compact) cross-sections are those which can develop their plastic moment resistance, but have limited rotation capacity. 0

Class 3 cross-sections are those in which the calculated stress in the extreme compression fibre of the steel member can reach its yield strength, but local buckling is liable to prevent development of the plastic moment resistance.

e

Class 4 cross-sections are those in which it is necessary to make explicit allowances for the effects of local buckling when determining the moment resistance or compression resistance of the section.

Class 3 and 4 cross-sections are not further considered in this document. A cross-section is classified according to the least favourable class of its steel elements in compression, according to the following Tables 6.1 to 6.4. Steel webs and flanges in compression are classified according to their width to thickness ratios and stress distributions. The positions of the plastic neutral axes of composite sections should be calculated for the effective cross-section using design values of strengths of materials.

Cross-sections under positive bending, where the plastic neutral axis lies in the concrete or in the steel flange, belong to Class 1 independent of the width to thickness ratios of the web and the flanges. Under certain circumstances the classification can be upgraded (refer to Section 6.4 and to EC4).

Table 6.3 Maximum width-to-thickness ratios for steel webs

Webs of all IPE and HE sections subject to bending, or bending and compression with a neutral axis characterized by Q I0.5, belong to Class 1. In case of single span beams under positive bending, local instability of the steel web is not critical for any IPE or HE profiles. If the steel web is stressed fully in compression, Tables 6.4 a - d can be used for the classification based on the requirements in Table 6.3. A Class 3 web that is encased in concrete in accordance with Section 6.4 [4.3.1 (6) to (9)] may be assumed to be in Class 2 [4.3.3.1(2)]. An uncased Class 3 web may be represented by an effective depth of web equivalent to a Class 2 web. The cross-section may then be analysed plastically and the section treated as Class 2 [4.3.3.1(3)], provided that the compression flange is Class 1 or 2.

General Bending moments in composite beams at ultimate limit state (ULS) may be determined by elastic or rigid-plastic global analysis, using factored loads. The design bending moments shall not exceed the resistance of the composite beam. The verification shall be done at critical cross-sections (see section 6.1.2).

6.1 S . 2

Plastic global analysis [4.5.2]

Plastic global analysis (or plastic hinge analysis) may be used for all continuous beams, provided that the following requirements are met [4.5.2.2(2)] [4.2.1(3)]: e e e e

the steel cross-section is symmetrical about the plane of its web, lateral torsional buckling does not occur, the steel compression flange at a plastic hinge location is laterally restrained, sufficient rotation capacity is available.

Rotation capacity is sufficient when the following requirements are met: e

the effective cross-sections at plastic hinge locations are in Class 1 and, elsewhere, all others are in Class 1 or 2

e

adjacent spans do not differ in length by more than 50% of the shorter span: 0.66 ILk/Lk+l 5 1.5

e

end spans do not exceed 115% of the length of the adjacent span: Le I 1.15 L;

e

the reinforcement in concrete sections under tension fulfils the requirements of high ductility (see Section 4.2.2 or EC2)

In case of heavy concentrated loads, refer to EC4 [4.5.2.2(2)(d)]. Class 2 sections are only permitted where no rotation capacity is required.

Page 40

6.1.5.3

Elastic global analysis [4.5.3]

Elastic global analysis is based on a linear stress-strain relationship [4.5.3.1].

No account need be taken of bending moments due to shrinkage.

Loss of stiffness, due to cracking of concrete in negative moment regions and yielding of steel, influences the distribution of bending moments in continuous composite beams. Two methods of elastic global analysis are permitted by EC4 at the ultimate limit state to determine the bending moment distribution: e

uncracked section method, based on midspan effective width ignoring any longitudinal reinforcement (method 1);

0

cracked section analysis, based on a section in the region of the internal support comprising the steel member together with the effectively anchored reinforcement located within the effective width at the support (method 2).

,

Method 2

Definition of “uncracked” and “cracked” sections for elastic global analysis

Method 2 is more suitable for computer analysis. However, this method may be also used at the serviceability limit state to accurately determine the moments in cases of crack control in the slab. This method assumes that, for a length of 15%of the span on each side of the support, the section properties are those of the cracked section under negative moments (see Figure 6.5). I2 is the cracked second moment of area which is less than the uncracked value, I,. Refer to Section 7.2 for the calculation of these properties. The elastic bending moments for a continuous composite beam of uniform depth within each span may be modified by reducing maximum negative moments by amounts not exceeding the percentage of Table 6.5. The resulting positive bending moments are then found by static equilibrium. Page 41

Resistance of Cross-Sections

6.2.1 General The design bending resistance may be determined by plastic theory, but only where the effective composite section is in Class 1 or Class 2. 6.2.2 Positive moment resistance [4.4.1.2(2)] The following assumptions shall be made in the calculation of MR, = Mpl,Rd(see Figures 6.6 to 6.8). In all cases Msd IMpf,Rd for adequate design. The effective areas of longitudinal reinforcement in tension and in compression are stressed to their design yield strength f& /ysin tension or compression. Alternatively, reinforcement in compression in a concrete slab may be neglected. Profiled steel decking in compression shall be neglected. The presence of profiled steel decking, when running transverse to the main span, reduces the area of concrete that may resist compression forces. Hence, the maximum possible depth of concrete in compression is h,, which is the depth of concrete flange above upper flange of profiled decking of depth, $. The calculation method for MpI,Rd depends on the location of the plastic neutral axis. Three cases to be considered for doubly symmetric sections are as follows:

The moment resistance of a composite beam designed for partial shear connection may be determined by either of the following methods:

1. 2.

Stress block (or equilibrium) method Linear interaction method.

In Method 1 the force transferred to the concrete is determined by the longitudinal resistance of the shear connectors. Equilibrium equations can be established explicitly, in a similar manner to Section 6.2.2. The relationship is defined by the curve ABC in Figure 6.15. Method 2 is more conservative, but is often preferred because it is a simple method of determining the moment resistance, knowing the moment resistances of the steel beam and the composite section for full shear connection. The relationship is defined by the line AC in Figure 6.15. Because it is a more conservative treatment of partial shear connection, the linear interaction method may be used with a less severe restriction on the minimum degree of shear connection.

The design longitudinal shear force, V, can be determined from Figure 6.13 with FCf replaced by the force transferred by the shear connectors, F,. I f F, is determined for a known distribution of shear connectors, then the maximum value of the reduced moment resistance may be calculated using the same linear interaction equation. This reduced moment resistance, MRd, should be not less than Msd, which is the applied moment.

Figure 6.16 Reduced bending moment resistance of cross-sections A good approximation to the equilibrium method can be obtained by considering the

moment-axial force interaction for an I section, as illustrated in Figure 6.16. It follows that:

where F, = force transferred by shear connectors = C PRd and N S Nf Fa = axial resistance of steel section = A, fy /ya The interaction between moment and shear is covered in Section 6.2.5. 6.3.5 Transverse reinforcement 6.3.5.1 Longitudinal shear in the slab [6.6.1] The design longitudinal shear per unit length for any potential surface of longitudinal shear failure within the slab, VSd, shall not exceed the design resistance to longitudinal shear, VRd, of the shear surface considered. VSd should be determined in accordance with Section 6.3.4 and be consistent with the design of the shear connectors at the ultimate limit state.

Page 53

Potential failure surfaces are shown in Figure 6.17. Top and bottom reinforcement in the slab may be considered to be effective. Where steel decking is continuous over the beam, or is effectively anchored by shear connectors, it may also be considered to act as transverse reinforcement. Failure surface a-a controls in these cases. Failure surface b-b is not considered critical in EC4 in cases where steel decking is used. In determining VSd, account may be taken of the variation of longitudinal shear across the width of the concrete flange. Longitudinal shear is considered to be transferred uniformly by the shear connectors.

6.3.5.2 Design resistance to longitudinal shear [6.6.2(1) to (5)] The design resistance of the concrete flange (shear planes a-a illustrated in Figure 6.17) shall be determined in accordance with the principles in Clause 4.3.2.5 of EC2. Profiled steel sheeting with ribs transverse to the steel beam may be assumed to contribute to resistance to longitudinal shear, provided it is continuous across the top flange of the steel beam or if it is welded to the steel beam by stud shear connectors. In the absence of a more accurate calculation the design resistance of any surface of potential shear failure in the flange or a haunch should be determined from:

These cases are illustrated in Figure 6.17. Transverse reinforcement considered to resist longitudinal shear shall be anchored so as to develop its yield strength in accordance with EC2. At edge beams, anchorage may be provided by means of U-bars looped around the shear connectors.

A web in Class 3 may be represented by an effective web of the same cross-

section in Class 2 [4.3.3.1(2)]; Web encasement may be assumed to contribute to resistance against local buckling [4.3.2,4.3.3], shear buckling [4.4.2.2] and lateral-torsional buckling [4.6.2]. However, the shear buckling resistance for an unstiffened and encased web shall be verified (by testing), if d/t, > 124 E [4.4.2.2(3)]; e

No application rules are given for the contribution of concrete encasement of a steel web to resistance in bending and vertical shear.

Where the depth h of a partially encased steel member does not exceed the limit given in Section 6.5 [4.6.2(m)] by more than 200 mm [4.6.2], verification of lateral torsional buckling is not necessary provided the conditions in EC4, [4.6.2 (a) to (k)] are satisfied, (see Section 6.5). 6.5

Lateral-Torsional Buckling of Continuous Beams [4.6] The concrete slab may usually be assumed to prevent the upper flange of the steel section (connected to the concrete part) from moving laterally. In negative moment regions of continuous composite beams the lower flange is subject to compression. The tendency of the lower flange to buckle laterally is restrained by the distortional stiffness of the cross-section (inverted U-frame action).

Web encasement in accordance with Section 6.4 [4.3.1] may be assumed to contribute to resistance to lateral-torsional buckling [4.6.2], see Table 6.8.

No direct calculation for the lateral stability of a composite beam is necessary when the following conditions are satisfied: adjacent spans do not differ in length by more than 20% of the shorter span or where there is a cantilever, its length does not exceed 15% of the adjacent span. the loading on each span is uniformly distributed and the design permanent load exceeds 40% of the total load. the shear connection in the steel-concrete interface satisfies the requirements of Sections 5.4 and 6.3. e

the slab proportions are typical of those in general building design (see Section 5.2). ha Imaximum depth of steel member is as given in Table 6.8.

All HEB sections satisfy the requirements for lateral torsional buckling. The data in Table 6.8 for IPE sections is also applicable for UB and other equivalent rolled sections, provided the depth/width of the steel section does not exceed 2.75. In other cases a check for lateral torsional buckling according to EC4 [4.6] and [Annex B] is required. If necessary, additional discrete lateral restraints may be provided to the compression flange, for example, by bracing or transverse members. For edge beams, fully anchored top reinforcement is required in the slab [4.6.2(h)].

SERVICEABILITY LIMIT STATES [ 5 ] , [2.3.4]

7.1

General Criteria The serviceability requirements for composite beams concern the control of deflections, cracking of concrete and, in some cases, vibration response. Deflections are important in order to prevent cracking or deformation of the partitions and cladding, or to avoid noticeable deviations of floors or ceilings. Floor vibrations may be important in long span applications, but these calculations are outside the scope of the Code (see Section 7.3). Loads to be used at the serviceability limit state are presented in Section 3.3.3 [2.3.4]. Normally unfactored loads are used. In order to calculate serviceability effects, account should be taken of any non-linear effects due to cracking, steel yielding etc. Most designers base assessments at the serviceability limit state on elastic behaviour (with certain modifications for creep and cracking etc). To avoid consideration of post-elastic effects, limits are often placed on the stresses existing in beams at the serviceability limit state.

No stress limitations are made in Eurocode 4 because: 0

post-elastic effects in the mid span region are likely to be small and have little influence on deflections;

0

the influence of the connections on the deflection of simply supported beams has been neglected;

0

account is taken of plasticity in the support region of continuous beams.

Deflection limits are not specified in EC4. Reference is made to Eurocode 3 (see Tables 7.1 and 7.2) for limits on deflections due to permanent and variable loads.

7.2

Calciilation of deflections [5.2.2(2)J

7.2.1 Second moment of area Deflections are calculated knowing the second moment of area of the composite section based on elastic properties (see Figure 7.1). Under positive moment the concrete may be assumed to be uncracked, and the second moment of area of the composite section (expressed as a transformed steel section) is:

r

is the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the steel section, A,, relative to the area of the concrete section (beffhc).

is the second moment of area of the steel section

Note: other terms are as defined previously. The effective slab width, be, is the same as used at the ultimate limit state see Section 6.1.3 [5.2.2(3)]. The ratio Ic!Ia therefore defines the improvement in the stiffness of the composite section relative to the steel section. This ratio is presented in Section 11.2 for all IPE and HE sections (up to 600mm deep) for typical slab depth. Typically, Ic/Iais in the range of 2.5 to 4.0, indicating that one of the main benefits of composite action is in reduction of deflections. It is not usually necessary to calculate the ‘cracked’ second moment of area under positive moment as the elastic neutral axis will normally lie in the steel beam, or near the base of the slab. Where it is necessary to know the ‘cracked’ second moment of area under negative moment, a simple formula may be derived from Figure 7.2. Assuming that the reinforcement is placed at mid-height of the slab above the sheeting, this formula is:

The elastic modulus under long term loads is affected by creep, which causes a reduction in the stiffness of the concrete. The modular ratio, n, is the ratio of the elastic modulus of steel to the time-dependent elastic modulus of concrete (see Section 4.2.1). Typically, the modular ratio for normal weight concrete is 6.5 for short term (variable) loading. The elastic modulus of concrete for long term (permanent) loads is taken as one-third of the short term value, leading to a modulus ratio of approximately 20 for long term (permanent) loading in an internal environment.

Page 62

For building of normal usage, surveys have shown that the proportions of variable and permanent imposed loads rarely exceed 3: 1. Although separate deflection calculations may be needed for the variable and permanent deflections, a representative modular ratio is usually appropriate for calculation of imposed load deflection. This value may be taken as twice the short term modular ratio (ie. approximately 13) for buildings of normal usage.

7.2.3 Influence of partial shear connection [5.2.2(6)] Deflections increase due to the effects of slip in the shear connectors. These effects are ignored in composite beams designed for full shear connection. For cases of partial shear connection using headed stud shear connectors, the deflection, 6, is increased according to:

-a -- 1 + c

where: N/N,

6,

is the deflection of the composite beam with full shear connection

6,

is the deflection of the steel beam under the same loads

C

is a coefficient, taken as 0.3 for unpropped construction and 0.5 for propped construction.

The difference between these coefficients arises from the higher force in the shear connectors at serviceability in propped construction. An additional simplification is that slip effects can usually be ignored when N/Nf1 0.5 in unpropped construction [5.2.2(5)]. This is because of beneficial effects that are ignored in calculating deflections making the above equation too conservative in many cases.

7.2.4 Shrinkage induced deflections [3.1.3]

~

EC4 states that shrinkage deflections need only be calculated for simply supported beams when the span: depth ratio of the beam exceeds 20, and when the free shrinkage strain of the concrete exceeds 400 x 10-6 [5.2.2(9)]. In practice, these deflections will only be significant for spans greater than 12m in exceptionally warm dry atmospheres. The curvature, K,, due to a free shrinkage strain, es, is: ~

n is the modular ratio appropriate for shrinkage calculations (n = 20). The deflection due to this curvature is:

6, = 0.125 K, L2 This deflection formula ignores continuity effects at the supports and probably overestimates shrinkage deflections by a considerable margin.

7.2.5 Continuous beam [5.2.2(7)] The deflection of a continuous beam is modified by the influence of cracking in the negative moment region. This may be taken into account by calculating the second moment of area of the cracked section under negative moment (ignoring the concrete). The ne ative moment at the supports is assumed to vary as a reduction factor of (I,II$0.3Ftimes the negative moment at the serviceability limit state based on an analysis of the uncracked section, where I, is the uncracked, and I, is the cracked second moment of area. The lower limit to this reduction factor on negative moment is 0.6, which is applicable where there is minimum reinforcement in the slab. This method may be used where the difference in adjacent spans is less than 25 %. Alternatively, a more precise method is to use the ‘cracked section’ analysis model of elastic global analysis described in Section 6.1.5 in order to determine the negative moments directly. No further reduction in negative moments should be made in this case. In continuous beams, there is a possibility of yielding in the negative moment region. To take account of this effect the negative moments may be further reduced. In reality, this reduction is a function of the moment resistance of the composite section under negative and positive moment. A conservative way of taking this into account is to multiply the ‘elastic’ negative moments at the supports by a further reduction factor. This factor is given in EC4 [5.2.2(8)]as 0.7, where load sufficient to cause yielding is applied to the hardened section, which is the normal design case. Together with the minimum factor of 0.6 due to concrete cracking, the final negative moment may be conservatively taken as 0.42 times the elastic moment based on uncracked analysis. The mid-span deflection of a beam, as influenced by the support moments, may be calculated from:

where:

C

=

0.6 for uniform load 0.5 for central point load

M Oand 6, are the mid-span moment and deflection of the equivalent simply-supported beam and M,and M, are the negative moments at the supports (for the same loading condition), reduced Tor cracking and yielding as noted above.

As an approximation, a deflection coefficient of 3/384 is usually appropriate for determining the deflection of a continuous composite beam subject to uniform loading on equal adjacent spans. This may be reduced to 4/384 for end spans. The second moment of area of the section is based on the uncracked value.

7.3

Vibration Checks [5.1(1)] This section is included because a check on the potential vibration response may be necessary for long span beams designed for light imposed loads. A simple measure of the natural frequency of a beam is:

f = 18/@sw where as, is the instantaneous deflection (mm) caused by reapplication of the self weight of the floor and beam to the composite member. A minimum limit on natural frequency, f, is proposed as 4 cycledsec for most building applications except where there is vibrating machinery, or 3 cycles/sec for car parks. The limit may be raised to 5 cycles/sec for special buildings such as sports halls.

7.4

Crack Control [5.3] It is necessary to control cracking of concrete only in cases where the proper functioning of the structure or its appearance would be impaired. Internally within buildings, durability is not affected by cracking. Similarly when raised floors are used, cracking is not visually important. Where it is necessary to control cracking, the amount of reinforcement should exceed a minimum value in order to avoid the presence of large cracks in the negative moment region. This minimum percentage, p, is given by: p = -AS - -k,.k.A C

An additional criterion is that the bars should be of small diameter and should be spaced relatively closely together in order to be more effective in crack control.

COMPOSITE COLUMNS

8.1

Introduction

Composite columns are of two main types: totally or partially concrete encased steel sections (Figures 8.1.a and b) or concrete filled steel sections (Figures 8. lc and d). The encased composite column is encountered frequently in building construction, often because the concrete encasement also provides sufficient fire protection. Partially encased columns (Figure 8. lb) are easier to construct and provide free structural steel surfaces for later welding or attachments. For both types of columns fire resistance can be enhanced by additional reinforcement. Where a hollow steel section is used with an internal filling of concrete, the profile provides formwork for the concrete. For short circular columns, the effect of confinement leads to an additional increase in the load bearing resistance.

Design Method

8.2.1 General In EC4 two methods of design are given. The first one, which is general, takes account of second order effects including imperfections. It ensures that for the most unfavourable combinations of actions at the ultimate limit state, instability does not occur and that the resistance of individual cross-sections subjected to bending and longitudinal forces is not exceeded. Numerical methods of analysis are necessary for verification using this method. The second method - presented in the following pages - is a simplified one, permitting design without the aid of a computer. It is based on assumptions given below and it adopts the European buckling curves for steel columns as the basic design curves for composite columns. The limits of applicability of the simplified method are given in Section 8.3.5. When the limits are not fulfilled, the general method in EC4 [4.8.2] has to be applied. 8.2.2 Design assumptions E4.8.3.13 Both approaches for the design of composite columns are based on the following main assumptions. 0

full interaction between concrete and steel up to the point of collapse;

0

allowances must be made for imperfections which are consistent with those adopted for assessing the strength of bare steel columns;

0

proper account must be taken of the steel and concrete stress-strain curves;

a

plane sections remain plane.

8.2.3 Local buckling [4.8.2.4] It is also assumed that all the material strengths are attained without any local buckling of the steel parts of the cross section.

To prevent premature buckling, the maximum width-to-thickness ratios for the steel parts in compression have to satisfy the following values (for notations, see Figure 8.1). a 0

Limiting width-to-thickness ratios to avoid local buckling

If the maximum width-to-thickness ratios are exceeded, special methods of analyses should be applied.

No verification for local buckling is needed for totally encased sections but a sufficient cover must be provided in order to prevent premature spalling of the concrete. Therefore the minimum concrete cover c, may not be less than 40mm or 116 of the width of the flange of the steel column. 8.2.4 Shear between the steel and concrete components [4.8.2.6] Internal forces and moments applied from members connected to the ends of a column length have to be distributed between the steel and concrete components of the column, by considering the shear resistance at the interface between steel and concrete. The shkar resistance is provided by bond stresses and friction at the interface, or by mechanical shear connection, so that no significant slip occurs. As the natural bond between steel profile and concrete is uncertain, the design shear

resistance due to bond may not exceed the following values r4.8.2.71. e

An exact determination of bond stresses between structural steel and concrete requires extensive calculation. Stresses may be determined in a simplified way either according to elastic theory or from the plastic resistance of the cross section. The variation of stresses in the concrete member between two critical sections can be used for the determination of bond stresses.

If loads are introduced into the column, it must be ensured that after a certain introduction length the individual components of the cross section are loaded according to their resistance, so that no significant slip occurs between these parts. The introduction length for the shear force should not be assumed to exceed twice the smaller of the two cross section dimensions. 8.3

Simplified Method of Design

8.3.1 Resistance of cross-sections to axial loads [4.8.3.3] In dealing with axially loaded columns it is important to differentiate between these columns whose strength is augmented by triaxial containment of concrete (concrete filled circular hollow steel sections) and those where no such action occurs (totally or partially encased rolled sections, concrete filled rectangular hollow steel sections). 8.3.1.1 Encased steel sections and concrete filled rectangular hollow steel sections The plastic resistance of the cross section is given simply by the sum of the components, as follows:

The development of these hoop tensile forces in the tube combined with the compressive axial forces in the steel shell lowers the, effective plastic resistance of the steel section in accordance with the von Mises failure criteria. On the other hand the increase in concrete strength over the normal unconfined cylinder strength more than offsets any reduction in the resistance of the steel with the result that such columns show an enhanced strength. It is important to note, however, that the effects of triaxial containment tend to diminish as the column length increases. Consequently this effect may only be Page 70

In addition the eccentricity of the normal force (e) may not exceed the value d/10, d being the outer diameter of the circular hollow steel section. The eccentricity, e, is defined by:

8.3.3 Resistance of cross sections to combined compression and uniaxial bending[4.8.3.11] Unlike the interaction diagram for a bare steel section where the moment resistance undergoes a continuous reduction with increase in axial load, for very short composite columns the moment resistance may be increased by the presence of axial load. This is because the prestressing effect of an axial load may in certain circumstances prevent cracking and so make the concrete more effective in resisting moments. Figure 8.2 represents the non-dimensional interaction curve for compression and uniaxial bending for a composite cross section.

Figure 8.2

Interaction curve for compression and uniaxial bending

Such a curve for short composite columns can be determined by considering different positions of the neutral axis over the whole cross section and determining the internal action effects from the resulting stress blocks. This approach can only be carried out by a computer analysis.

With the simplified method of EC4, it is possible to calculate by hand four or five points (ACDB and E) of the interaction curve. The interaction curve may be replaced by the polygon ACDB(E) through these points (Figure 8.3). The method is applicable to the design of columns with cross-sections that are symmetrical about both principal axes.

Point D is less important than point C, and can be safely neglected as it leads to an increase of moment resistance with axial load. Point E need not be determined for major axis bending of encased I sections or if the design axial force does not exceed Npm,Rd. In other cases, refer to Eurocode 4.

The flexural stiffness, (EIa, which is necessary for the analysis using second order theory, can be determined following Section 8.3.2.

8.3.5 Resistance of members to combined compression and uniaxial bending [4.8.3.13] When there are moments in addition to the axial load, the buckling loads as obtained by the method described in Section 8.3.2 have to be reduced. The simplified method uses the previous buckling load as a starting point and refers to the cross section interaction curve described above. Figure 8.4 illustrates the procedure for cases in which point E need not be determined. In this case, lines AC and BC may be defined easily. The principle of calculation is shown in the same figure.

Page 76

Figure 8.4

Design procedure for compression and uniaxial bending

The axial resistance of a column in the absence of moment is given by x.Np,Rd (see Section 8.3.2). Therefore, at the level x = NRd/Npl,Rd, no additional bending moment can be applied to the column. The corresponding value for bending pk of the cross section is therefore the “moment for imperfection” of the column and the influence of this imperfection is assumed to decrease linearly to the value xn. If the design axial force of the column is N,,, then xd =

-.NSd Npl.Rd

The distance p defines the ultimate moment resistance that is still available, having taken account of the influence of second order effects in the column.

xn = x(l-r)/4 IXd, where r the ratio of the lesser to the greater end moment of the column. For simplification it is allowed to consider r = 1 (equal end moments) and xn = 0. This simplification leads to results which are conservative for other values of r. Where xn > 0, refer to EC4 r4.8.3.1.31 for typical values of xn. In any case, if transverse loads occur within the column length, xn = 0. For the verification of the column in combined compression and uniaxial bending, the maximum design bending moment within the column length (Mmax,Sd)shall meet the following condition:

Mmax,Sdis the maximum applied factored moment taking account of second order effects (see EC4 [4.8.3.10].

In Annex 1 of this publication, formulae are given for the determination of the plastic moment resistance of the section, Mpl,Rd. The distance p can be calculated as follows when equivalent reduction factor at point C in Figure 8.4.

8.3.6 Limits of applicability of the simplified design method The composite columns are of double symmetrical and uniform cross section over the column length. The design clauses were based on numerical studies covering a range of steel contribution, 6, varying from 0.2 up to 0.9. As the method has only been checked over this range, designs using the simplified method should have 6 values lying within this range:

0.2 I 6 I 0.9 If 6 is less than 0.2 the column shall be designed according to Eurocode 2 and if 6 exceeds 0.9 according to Eurocode 3. 0

The non-dimensional slenderness

x shall not exceed 2.0. Page 78

e

If the longitudinal reinforcement is considered in design, a minimum percentage of 0.3% of the concrete area must be provided. The maximum percentage of reinforcement at the concrete cross section which can be applied in the analysis is 4%. For reasons of fire protection, greater percentages of the reinforcement can be included, but shall not be taken into account for the "normal design". As 0.3% I I 4.0%

Concrete filled sections may be fabricated without any reinforcement. For concrete encased sections the minimum reinforcement is given in EC4 [4.8.3.1(3)].

FIRE RESISTANCE The behaviour of composite elements in case of fire depends largely on the thickness of steel flanges, position of concrete and reinforcement etc. In order to achieve an optimal design, the requirements from fire design have to be taken into account when carrying out the cold design. For detailed information on fire design, refer to EC4, Part 1.2.

To enable the designer to estimate whether a chosen type of column or beam will have sufficient fire resistance and how it can be improved, the following overview is given. Columns

* ,’

The load resistance of concrete-filled hollow sections in the case of fire is mainly determined by the concrete and the reinforcement. The steel section loses its resistance quite early, but the concrete and reinforcement continue to resist loads. The concrete insulates the reinforcement in the concrete.

In the case of high load levels, additional longitudinal reinforcment is required. Columns of concrete-filled hollow sections reach fire resistance class R 90 when designed for full load utilisation at normal temperatures and up to R 180 when designed for partial load utilisation at normal temperatures. The load resistance of encased sections is determined mainly by the hot-rolled steel section, both in case of normal temperature and fire design. Concrete insulates the steel section and the reinforcement is used largely to prevent spalling of the concrete in fire. Columns of encased sections can reach a fire resistance class R240 even when designed for full load utilisation at normal temperatures. The load resistance of partially encased sections is determined by the reinforcement and the web of the steel section in case of fire. The steel flanges are heated quickly and hence lose load resistance. Columns of partially encased sections reach fire resistance class R60 and up to R120 depending on the detailing and the load utilisation.

Page 80

~

Beams If composite beams are required to have fire resistance, this can be achieved by conventional protection of the steel profile. Fire resistance classes R 30 to R240 are reached by conventional board or spray fire protection. The critical temperature of a composite beam is the same as for an equivalent steel beam. Alternatively, the steel section may be partially encased in concrete, and fire resistance classes of R30 to R120 can be achieved. Connections also have to be fire protected. Connections which are surrounded by concrete reach the same fire resistance class as the adjacent columns and beams.

Slabs

m;

For fire resistance of concrete slabs see EC2, Part 1.2. Fire resistance class R 90 is usually achieved. For the fire resistance of a composite slab see EC4 Part 1.2, European Technical Approvals or Testing Certificates. The fire resistance depends largely on the shape of the profiled decking. Composite slabs using trapezoidal decking in general need additional reinforcement to reach R 90. Composite slabs using Holorib-type decking in general exceed R90 without additional reinforcement in the slab other than that required for distribution of loads and for crack control.

CONSTRUCTION AND WORKMANSHIP

10.1 General [9.1] This section gives specific recommendations related to the design of composite structures. However, EC4 does not give a full treatment of all aspects of construction and workmanship. In addition, the relevant clauses of appropriate Parts of Eurocode 2 and Eurocode 3 are applicable to composite structures.

10.2 Sequence of Construction [9.2] The sequence of construction shall be compatible with the design. All information necessary to ensure this compatibility shall be clearly indicated and described on the final drawings and specifications. These shall include instructions for control measurements in the different phases of construction, if appropriate. The speed and sequence of concreting should be required to be such that partly matured concrete is not damaged as a result of limited composite action occurring from removal of props etc. 10.3 Stability [9.3] The stability of the steelwork shall be ensured during construction, particularly before the development of composite action. It shall not be assumed that permanent or temporary formwork (including decking) provides restraint to steel members susceptible to buckling unless it has been demonstrated that the formwork and its fixings are capable of transferring sufficient restraining forces from the supports to the steel member.

10.4

Accuracy during Construction and Quality Control [9.4] 0

Static deflection during and after concreting The edge supports for the slab during concreting should be such that they can follow the deflections of the steel beams during concreting. When unpropped construction is used, measures should be taken to limit the additional thickness of the floor slabs resulting from deflections of the steel beam, unless the extra thickness of concrete is taken into account in the final design.

0

Compaction of concrete Special attention should be paid to the achievement of satisfactory compaction around shear connectors and in concrete-filled steel tubes.

Page 82

0

Shear connection in beams and columns For headed studs the quality of the stud welding shall be checked by visual inspection. Special attention shall be given to the weld collar and the length of the stud. Any studs with defective welding shall be replaced. In addition, a number of studs shall be bent until the head of each stud is displaced laterally from its original position a distance of approximately one quarter of the height of the stud. The stud weld shall not show any signs of cracking. The satisfactory studs shall be left in the bent position.

0

Corrosion protection in the interface Steel parts of composite beams in buildings in general need not be protected against corrosion unless particular corrosion action has to be taken into account. If the steel parts must be protected against corrosion by painting, the painting may also be applied in the interface and to the shear connectors. Where protection from corrosion is required without the interface and shear connectors being fully painted, the protection should extend at least 30mm into the interface.

0

Profiled steel decking as permanent formwork - Fixing of sheets The steel sheets shall be fixed: 0

during laying to keep them in position and to provide a safe working platform; to ensure adequate connection between adjacent sheets and between the sheets and supporting beams;

0

to transmit horizontal forces and shear, where necessary.

10.5 Loads During Construction The values of the construction and storage loads assumed in design of the decking shall be clearly shown on the relevant site plans. Those responsible for controlling work on site shall ensure that these loads are not exceeded.

10.6 Stud Connectors Welded through Profiled Decking Stud connectors may be welded through the steel sheet to the supporting beams under the following conditions: 0

Any paint on the steel beam near the weld should be removed.

0

When the sheet is ungalvanised, the gross thickness should not exceed 1S m m and any corrosion should be minimal.

The overall thickness of a galvanised steel sheet should not exceed 1.25mm. 0

Wet conditions at the time of welding should be avoided. Before welding, the sheet should be in close contact with the steel.

0

Stud connectors should not be welded through more than one thickness of sheet.

0

The diameter, d, of stud connector should not exceed 19mm.

0

Welding trials should be carried out.

Other detailing requirements are given in Section 5.4.1.

DESIGN TABLES AND GRAPHS FOR COMPOSITE BEAMS The following Tables and Figures present information to assist designers in selecting the size of steel section to be used as a composite beam for different spans and loads. Figures 12.1 and 12.2 show the benefits of composite action in terms of moment resistance, and second moment of area (stiffness). This information is presented for IPE and HE sections in grade Fe 360 or 510 steel. Certain assumptions have been made regarding the slab depths and width. The Design Tables are presented for certain standard cases using Holorib decking and slab depths typical of current practice. The information is given in terms of the maximum span that can be achieved for a specified imposed load and beam size.

ADDITIONAL NOTES ON TABLES Internal Beam The composite beam supports a composite slab with equally spaced adjacent beams.

Deck The steel deck is the re-entrant type, Holorib, which is 50mm deep and 150 mm rib spacing.

Imposed Load The designer should include an allowance for partitions in the imposed load.

Shear Connectors Welded stud (19 mm dia. x 95 mm or 22 mm dia. x 95 mm) are included. Studs are placed in every rib (at 150 mm spacing) or in alternate ribs (at 300 mm spacing).

Fire Resistance The slab depth is selected to achieve a certain fire resistance. Check with EC4 Part 1.2. The results are conservative for deeper slabs. Failure Criteria a

moment resistance of the beam exceeded in the construction stage

b

shear stress in composite beam exceeds 0.5 V,,,,, - the design continues by reducing the moment resistance of the section

C

moment resistance of the composite beam exceeded

d

moment resistance of the composite beam with partial shear connection exceeded

e

limit on degree of shear connection not satisfied (see Section 6.3.4.2)

f

serviceability stress in steel exceeded (not used in EC4)

g

total deflection exceeded (taken as L/200 for floors with suspended ceilings)

h

imposed load deflection exceeded (L/350 for floors supporting brittle partitions)

1

natural frequency < 4 Hz

NB: For some cases, the beam span corresponding to criterion e is output. This occurs in cases where R, < R, and the minimum degree of shear connection is not achieved.

COMPOSITE BEAMS AND COLUMNS TO EUROCODE 4

PART 2: WORKED EXAMPLES The following Worked Examples are intended to assist in understanding the requirements of Eurocode 4 Part 1.1. Worked Examples 1 and 2 refer to simply supported composite beams, and Worked Example 3 to a continuous composite beam of the same span. These Examples follow the same format which is given in the Index before each Example. Pages are numbered separately for each example. Worked Example 4 refers to an encased I section column subject to combined bending and axial force. Worked Example No. 1:

Simply supported composite beam with solid slab and full shear connection.

(11 pages)

Worked Example No. 2:

Simply supported composite beam with composite slab and partial shear connection. ( 14 pages)

Worked Example No. 3:

Continuous composite beam with solid slab

(2 1 pages)

Worked Example No. 4:

Composite column with end moments

(10 pages)

Page 97

WORKED EXAMPLE no.1

This worked example refers to a simply supported composite beam considered as a floor beam in a building. The span of the beam is equal to 12m with a spacing of 3.33m. The variable load has been considered equal to 3.0 l W m 2 and the load for interior finishings equal to 1 .O kN/mZ. The beam is verified as propped until the concrete has hardened and full shear connection has been assumed between steel and concrete. For simplicity the contribution of the longitudinal reinforcement has been neglected. The effect of creep has been taken into account for deflection checks (serviceability limit states), while those due to temperature and shrinkage have been ignored. The structural solution uses solid slab, rolled steel beam and headed stud connectors.

WORKED EXAMPLE no.2

This worked example refers to a simply supported composite beam considered as a floor beam in a building. The span of the beam is equal to 12 m with a spacing of 3.33 m. The variable load has been considered equal to 3 . 0 W/m2 and the load for interior finishings equal to 1.0 kN/m2. The beam is unpropped during construction and is designed for partial shear connection between the steel and concrete. For simplicity the contribution of the longitudinal reinforcement has been neglected. The effect of creep has been taken into account for deflection checks (serviceability limit states), while those due to temperature and shrinkage have been ignored. The structural solution uses a composite slab (sheeting with ribs transverse to the supporting beam), rolled steel beam and headed stud connectors. The steel beam is also checked for its ability to support the loads during construction.
