Vibration Check

Equivalent plate bending stiffness of the floor about an axis perpendicular to the beam direction
EI1 = Eomean*Iy/Sp
= 8*(6.12*107)/450
= 1087963.022 Nm2/m

Unfactored permanent area load with self-weight


mass = Weight*103/9.81
= 1*103/9.81
= 101.937 kg/m2
Fundamental frequency, f1 -
EI1fac = sqr(EI1/mass)
= sqr(1087963/101.937)
= 103.31
f1 = (PI/(2*(SPAN2)))*EI1fac
= (3.142/(2*((2)2)))*103.31
= 40.57 Hz

Since f1 is greater than 8 Hertz, Fundamental frequency - Verification to EN 1995 is possible.

Check the static floor deflection based on the requirements of the national annex to EN 1995-1-1

Second moment of area of the floor per m width


Iyb = (1000*thkflb3)/12
= (1000*(10)3)/12
= 83333.333 mm4/m

Floor deflection,  -
eomeanf = 14*Eomeanbd*Iyb*103/Sp4
= 14*12*83333.34*103/(450)4
= 0.341

kdist1 = kstrut*(0.38-(0.08*LOGE(eomeanf)))
= 1*(0.38-(0.08*LOGE(0.341)))
= 0.466
Since max(kdist1,0.3) = kdist1
kdist = kdist1
= 0.466
 = (1000*kdist*SPAN3*kamp*109)/(48*Eomean*103*Iy)
= (1000*0.466*(2)3*1.05*109)/(48*8*103*(6.12*107))
= 0.167 mm

Deflection limit for the floor unit under a 1kN point load -

Since the effective length is less than or equal to 4m


a = 1.8 mm
Floor deflection  ( 0.167 mm) is less than limit "a" ( 1.8 mm)

Since a is less than 1


b1 = 180-(60*+a)
= 180-(60*+0.167)
= 170.006

Unit impulse velocity response is not required as f1 is greater than 40 Hertz.

The section 47 x 250 mm FAILS the following check(s)


- bending
- shear at left end
- shear at right end
- bearing at left end
- bearing at right end
- deflection
