Structural shapes formed by

Hot rolling

Standard views used to illustrate steel structures on drawings

Plan view, elevation view, section views

View looking down on top of structure, multi story building require more views

Plan view

Looking from one side of building. Shows vertical height dimensions

Elevation view

Gives close up detail of part or section of building

Section views

Used to show location of holes, clips, base plates

Detail drawings

Shape for misc.

M

W columns have

Equal web and flange thicknesses

W beams have

Unequal web and flange thicknesses

ST, WT and MT structural tees made by

Cutting S, W or M shape beams or columns in half

Beam/Column designation for W12x20x2

W shape with nominal depth of 12 ", weight is 20 lb/ft, piece is 2 feet long

Bolt holes on structural members laid out on

Gage lines

Gauge line is

The distance from the line to the heel of an angle or channel or the centerline of a beam web

Holes are spaced in what direction

Parallel to the length of the member

Hole spacing on the gage line

Pitch

3 methods of showing dimensions on a print

Standard, extension, group

Most difficult method of dimensions to read on print

Group

Easiest dimension method to use on drawings

Extension

Group dimension

Extension

Standard

Drawing shows dimensions from hole to hole

Group

Size of heavy hex head on bolt specified to be

Same as nut

Bolt type has shorter thread length to eliminate it from the shear plane

Structural bolts

Snug tight condition

When all plies of joint are in firm contact

Slip critical connection (friction type connection) definition

Relies on friction between steel plies and high clamp load of structural bolt and nut to prevent movement

Connection requires specific torque for given bolt size

Slip critical connections

2 types of bolting methods

Slip critical and snug tight

4 methods of fully tensioning bolts for slip connections

Turn the nut method, alternative bolts, head indicating washer (DTI), calibrated torque wrench

Least favorable of the 4 methods of tightening bolts

Torque wrench

Body of bolt

Distance from under the head to End of bolt

Specific load that a fastener must be tested at without any indication of deformation or failure

Proof load

Larger edge distance required when

Hole is near sheared edge

Steel base plates required when

Columns bear on concrete footings

Sufficient number of anchor bolts to hold verticle columns in base plates

2

Thickness of base plate should be no less than

1/5 x the overhang from the column to base plate edge

Anchor rods made from what material

ASTM A36

Seated beam shear designed to support what kind of load

Vertical only

Seated beam shear most commonly used

At beam to column supports

Stiffened thickness must not be less than

Beam web thickness

Min. And max end plate thickness

6mm min 10 mm max

End plate thickness based on

Minimum edge distance

Minimum angle thickness

6mm

Shear connections are for

Vertical shearing

Minimum and maximum clearance between beam and column

10-20 mm

Vertical support members In a structural steel frame

Columns

Horizontal support members inna structural steel frame building. Usually made from wide flange shapes

Beams

Horizontal support members in structural frame used to span between columns in building or between supports in a bridge

Girders

Built up shapes that support roofs and floor systems. Used in place of girders when long spans desired but overall weight is a consideration

Trusses

The thickness of material or parts which the fastener is design to secure when fully assembled

The Grip

Bolt body length is from

Underside of the head to the last scratch of thread

Bolt length

Length from underside of the head to the extreme end of the bolt

Test load which a fastener must withstand without any indication of significant deformation or failure

Proof load

Thread length of a bolt

From the extreme point of the bolt to the last complete thread

Circular boss on the bearing surface of a bolt or nut

Washer face

Shop bolt

Countersink near side

Countersink far side

Open holes

Field splice

What tool is being used on the beam

Beam web gauge

% of holes in all the joints must have hand tightened bolts or drift pins in place before removing crane

50%

Is dry packing grout acceptable in bearing areas?

No

What is the type of grout used for bearing areas

Sika 212 flowable grout

CSA standard for structural welded steel construction

W59

CSA standard for welding of steel structures

W47.1
