Example:
Data:
The analysis of hinged base Portal frame is similar to that of fixed base Portal Frame
except that the stiffness of column will be 3EI/L instead of 4EI/L. Also at the bottom of
column, the moment is zero. The column is subjected to Axial load and moment. If the
column is having hinged base, moments varies linearly from zero at hinged base to
maximum at the top for all vertical loads. The design of slab, beam and column are
similar to fixed portal frame. The main difference is we have to design the hinges and
foundation.
The purpose of hinges provided to transmit shear force and permit rotation. High value
in compression is necessary to make the concrete plastic enough to permit required
angular rotation. The high value in compression is obtained by constructing the section
at the hinge and using compressive strength equal to half its ultimate stress. The
length of the hinge shall not be more than twice its least lateral dimension. The slot at
the hinge is filled up with bituminous material. The column main steel is terminated on
each side of the hinged slot and hinged bars are crossed to resist the whole shear force
at the base. The hinged bars are closely bound together by ties or spirals for dissipation
of high stresses.
Moment of Inertia:
Distribution factor:
The beam at mid span is designed as tee beam and at support is designed as
rectangular similar to fixed beam.
Column Design:
The column is designed for factored axial load Pu=216.56KN and a max. Bending
moment of Mu=73.80 KNm.
Design of Hinge:
For hinge action to persist the concrete will be made to reach nearly half its ultimate
stress=0.5 fck so that concrete will become plastic enough to permit small angular
rotation. The reinforcement at the hinge will be crossed to produce the hinge action.
Ultimate axial load at column base =216.56KN
Shear =1.5 x 10.14 =15.21KN
Provide 4 bars of 12 mm dia. Ast provided = 4 x ∏/4 x 122 =452.16 mm2 > 71.16mm2
Footing design:
Size of footing:
Provide size of footing as 1.30 m x 1.20m so that the projection will be equal on both
sides. Also the area provided shall be more than required to take care of effect of
moment.
Bending moment:
Assume overall depth of footing shall be 300mm and effective depth =250mm
Reinforcement :
Punching shear stress ζpunch=123.33 x 103 /{2 x (650+550) x 250} =0.21 MPa
Actual Pt provided=0.25, permissible shear stress ζc= 0.36 MPa (From table 19 of IS
456-2000) > 0.12 MPa. Hence ok.
