CE2352 DESIGN OF STEEL STRUCTURES
How to study this subject
OBJECTIVE:
This course covers the design of structural steel members subjected to compressive, tensile
and bending loads, as per current codal provisions (IS 800 - 2007) including connections.
Design of structural systems such as roof trusses, gantry girders are included.
UNIT I INTRODUCTION 12
Properties of steel – Structural steel sections – Limit State Design Concepts – Loads on
Structures – Metal joining methods using rivets, welding, bolting – Design of bolted, riveted and
welded joints – Eccentric connections - Efficiency of joints – High Tension bolts
UNIT II TENSION MEMBERS 8
Types of sections – Net area – Net effective sections for angles and Tee in tension – Design of
connections in tension members – Use of lug angles – Design of tension splice – Concept of
shear lag
UNIT III COMPRESSION MEMBERS 16
Types of compression members – Theory of columns – Basis of current codal provision for
compression member design – Slenderness ratio – Design of single section and compound
section compression members – Design of lacing and battening type columns – Design of
column bases – Gusseted base
UNIT IV BEAMS 12
Design of laterally supported and unsupported beams – Built up beams – Beams subjected to
biaxial bending – Design of plate girders riveted and welded – Intermediate and bearing
stiffeners – Web splices – Design of beam columns54
UNIT V ROOF TRUSSES AND INDUSTRIAL STRUCTURES 12
Roof trusses – Roof and side coverings – Design loads, design of purlin and elements of truss;
end bearing – Design of gantry girder
