    The document proposes a stainless steel handrail design to withstand various loading conditions. It calculates moments and forces from uniform and point loads. It then designs a 50x25x3mm RHS handrail section that has sufficient strength and stiffness based on the calculated maximum moment and force. Welded connections with a 3mm fillet weld are also designed to withstand the combined stresses from tension, shear, and bending induced by the loads.

    PROPOSED SS HANDRAIL

    LOADING - on Handrail
    (a) Horizontal Load UDL, kN/m
    Horizontal Load = 0.74 kN/m , Table 4, Fourth Schedule
    Width of Barrier = 1m
    Moment = 0.74 x 1 ^2 / 8x 1.6 = 0.148 kNm
    Force = 0.74 x 1 x 1.6 = 1.184 kN
    Force per support = 1.184 / 2 = 0.592 kN

    (b) UDL applied to infill of, kN/m2


    UDL = 1 kN/m2 , Table 4, Fourth Schedule
    Height of Barrier = 1.1 m
    Horizontal Load = 1 x 1.1 x 1.6 = 1.76 kN/m
    Width of Barrier = 1m
    Moment = 1.76 x 1 ^2 / 8 = 0.220 kNm
    Force = 1.76 x 1 = 1.760 kN
    Force per support = 1.76 / 2 = 0.880 kN

    (c) Point Load applied to part of the infill of, kN


    Point Load = 0.5 x 1.6 = 0.8 kN
    Width of Barrier = 1m
    Moment = 0.5 x 1 / 4x 1.6 = 0.200 kNm

    Maximum Moment = 0.220 kNm Maximum of a, b & c


    Maximum Force = 0.880 kN

    Design of Handrail
    Handrail size = 50 x 25 x 3mm thk RHS handrail
    Thickness = 3 mm
    Moment = 0.220 kNm
    Allowable fb(stainless Steel) = 215 N/mm2 Py ( Stainless Steel )
    Zxx, req'd = M/fb = 0.22 x 1000000 / 215 = 1023 mm3
    Zxx, provided = 3.1964 cm3 = 3196 mm3
    Hence, the section provided is OK OK

    Maximum Force = 0.880 kN


    Section Area = 4.140 cm2 = 414 mm2
    Shear stress = 0.880 x 1 x 1000 = 2.13 N/mm2
    1 x 414 minim OK

    Total Horizontal Load = 0.88 x 1 = 0.88 kN

    Welded Connection
    Weld Thickness, t = 3 mm all round
    Effective Weld Thk., te = 2.1 mm (te=0.707*t)
    Design Strength, Fw = 215 N/mm(Table 36, Clause 6.6.5.1 BS5950)

    Outside diameter of weld = 56 mm


    Weld Area, A = 499.513 mm2 (A=te*L)
    Inertia of Weld, I = 175954 mm4 (I=bd3/12)
    Centroid of Weld = 28 mm

    Load Act on Connection


    Eccentricity, e = 0 mm
    Tension = 0.00 KN
    Shear = 0.88 KN
    Moment = 0.22 KN-m
    Tensil Stress , T = 0.0 N/mm( T=Tension/A)
    Shear Stress , V = 1.8 N/mm( T=Shear/A)
    Bending Stress , M = 35.0 N/mm(M=Moment*c / I)
    Actual Combined Strength = √(M2+(T+V)2)
    = 35.1 N/mm[OK]
    Provide fillet weld of 3 mm all round
