Maximum span = 1 m
Maximum height = 1.0 m
Loading:
Wind force:
Design wind speed = 33.62 m/s
Design wind pressure = 0.68 kPa
Wind pressure coefficient = 1.2
Thus, lateral wind force (limit) = 0.41 kN/m (Less critical than imposed action)
lateral wind force (service) = 0.28 kN/m
Imposed action:
Uniform distributed load (UDL) = 0.75 kN/m
Point load = 0.6 kN
Dead load:
M* = 0.23 kN.m
Maximum spacing = 1 m
Maximum height = 1.0 m
Loading:
Wind force:
Design wind speed = 33.62 m/s
Design wind pressure = 0.68 kPa
Wind pressure coefficient = 1.2
Thus, lateral wind force (limit) = 0.41 kN/m (Less critical than imposed action)
lateral wind force (service) = 0.28 kN/m
Imposed action:
Uniform distributed load to rail = 0.75 kN/m
therefore reaction = 0.75 kN
Point load = 0.6 kN (less critical)
Dead load:
= 1.13 kN.m
M* = 1.13 kN.m
2. Check deflection
dser = 4.45 mm
Maximum spacing = 2 m
Maximum height = 1.7 m
Loading:
Wind force:
Design wind speed = 33.62 m/s
Design wind pressure = 0.68 kPa
Wind pressure coefficient = 1.1
Thus, lateral wind force (limit) = 0.63 kN/m (Less critical than imposed action)
lateral wind force (service) = 0.43 kN/m
Imposed action:
Point load = 0.6 kN (less critical)
Dead load:
= 1.53 kN.m
M* = 1.53 kN.m
