History..
• The Crystal Palace was a cast-iron and glassbuilding originally erected in Hyde Park, London,England, to house the Great Exhibition of 1851.
• More than 14,000 exhibitors from around theworld gathered in the Palace's 990,000 squarefeet (92,000 m2) of exhibition space to displayexamples of the latest technology developed inthe Industrial Revolution.
• The Crystal Palace's creator, Joseph Paxton,
was knighted in recognition of his work. Paxtonhad been the head gardener at Chatsworth, inDerbyshire.

History..
• There he had experimented with glass and ironin the creation of large greenhouses, and hadseen something of their strength and durability,knowledge that he applied to the plans for theGreat Exhibition building.
• Planners had been looking for strength,durability, simplicity of construction and speedand this they got from Paxton's ideas. Theproject was engineered by Sir William Cubitt.

Eiffel Tower• The structure was built between 1887 and 1889 as the entrance arch for the
Exposition Universelle, a World's Fair marking the centennial celebration ofthe French Revolution.
• Eiffel originally planned to build the tower in Barcelona, for the UniversalExposition of 1888, but those responsible at the Barcelona city hall thoughtit was a strange and expensive construction, which did not fit into the designof the city.
• After the refusal of the Consistory of Barcelona, Eiffel submitted his draft tothose responsible for the Universal Exhibition in Paris, where he would buildhis tower a year later, in 1889. The tower was inaugurated on 31 March1889, and opened on 6 May.
• Three hundred workers joined together 18,038 pieces of puddled iron (avery pure form of structural iron), using two and a half million rivets, in astructural design by Maurice Koechlin.
• The risk of accident was great, for unlike modern skyscrapers the tower isan open frame without any intermediate floors except the two platforms.
• However, because Eiffel took safety precautions, including the use ofmovable stagings, guard-rails and screens, only one man died.

Over view
• Steel Structural is one of the basic materials
commonly used in structures, such as industrial and
commercial building, bridges etc
• It is produced in a wide range of shapes andgrades, which permits great flexibility in its usage.
• It is relatively inexpensive to manufacture and is the
strongest and most versatile material available tothe construction industry.
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 11/100
11
• Because of this geometry and shape, steel
structure can provide very high stability over
long distances with relatively little weight ie
steel truss.• The development of this engineering
technique made the construction of the high-
rise and skyscraper possible.

Steel structure refers to a building technique
with a ―skeleton frame" of vertical steel columns
and horizontal I-beams, constructed in a
rectangular grid to support the floors, roof andwalls of a building which are all attached to the
frame.

13
APPLICATION OF STEEL STRUCTURE
• A wide variety of structures are erected
using structural steel.
• Basically, they can be listed as
buildings, bridges, and towers; most otherstructures are modifications of these three.
• Steel is construction material of choice for
commercial or industrial construction due toits advantages as compared to other
construction material.

Steel Application in Construction
There are three basic types of steel in the
construction. These may be designated as :
• Engineering construction,
• skeleton construction, and
• long- span construction.

Specification
Specification of steel can be determined
according to its:
• Shape and size
• How steel manufactured
• Composition of raw materials
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 22/100
22
Structural Steel Shapes• Structural steel is manufactured in a wide
variety of cross-sectional shapes and sizes.
• Variety of shape:
i. W-Shape,ii. S Shape,
iii. C-shape,
iv. Steel Angles,v. Steel plate

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 25/100
25
W-shape (American Standard -
wide flange)• The W shape is the most widely used
structural member for beams, columns, and
other load-bearing applications. It has parallelinner and outer flange surfaces that are of
constant thickness.
• This flange design provides greater cross-
sectional area in the flanges, which results ingreater strength than is provided by the S-
shape
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 26/100
26
S-shape (American Standard I-beam)
• This flange design provides less cross-sectional
area in the flanges, which results in less strength
than is provided by the W-shape,
• S-shape which has a slope of approximately 17degrees on the inner flange surfaces.

8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 28/100
28
C-shape (American Standard - channel)
• The C-shape is similar to the S-shape in thatits inner flange surface is also sloped
approximately 17 degrees. The C-shape is
especially useful in locations where a single
flat surface on one side is required. Whenused alone, the C-shape is not very efficient
as a beam or column.
• However, efficient built-up members maybe
constructed of channel assembled togetherwith other structural shapes and connected
by rivets or welds.
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 29/100
29
• The W-, S-, and C-shape structural membersare designated by their nominal depth, in mm,
along the web and the weight, in kg, per
meter of length.
• A W150 x 30, for example, indicates a W-
shape that is 150mm deep along its web and
weighs 30 kg per linear meter. Hence a 20-meter length of this size W-shape would
weight a total of 600kg.

31
STEEL PLATE
• Steel plate is a structural member that has awidth greater than 200mm and a thickness of6mm or more. Plates are generally used asconnections between other structuralmembers.
• They may also be used as componentparts of built-up structural members, such asthe built-up column
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf

32
STEEL PLATE
• Plates cut to specific sizes may be obtained inwidths ranging from 200mm to 3000 mm andmore various thickness.
• Plates are identified by their thickness, width,
andlength, all measured in mm; for example, PL 12 x 450 x 750

Steel Bar
• Steel bar has a width of 200mm or less and athickness greater than 75-400mm.
• The edges of bars usually are rolled square, like universal mill plates. The dimensions
are expressed in a similar manner as that forplates; for instance, bar 150 x 12. Bars areavailable in a variety of cross-sectionalshapes:
round, hexagonal, octagonal, square, andflat

Hot Rolling Process
• Hot rolling is primarily concerned withmanipulating material shape and geometry rather than mechanical properties.
• This is achieved by heating a component or
material to its upper critical temperature andthen applying controlled load which forms thematerial to a desired specification or size.
• This method whereby industrial metal is passed
or deformed between a set of work rolls and thetemperature of the metal is generally above itsrecrystallization temperature.

48
Cold Rolling Process
• Cold rolling is a metallurgical process in whichmetal is passed through a pair of rollers at a
temperature below its recrystallization
temperature.
• This process hardens the metal, by compressing
and stretching the metal crystals. During the
rolling process, the metal is annealed by heating
it above the recrystallization temperature afterevery few rollings, to prevent it from becoming
brittle and cracking

49
Cold Rolling Process
• Most non-ferrous metals are rolled cold to makesheet. Steel is usually rolled hot, except when
thin sheet or special bars such as machine
shafts are being produced

Corrosion and Fire
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 56/100
56
Steel Protection- against Fire
• Steel frame needs to be protected from fire because steel softens at high temperature and this can cause the building to partiallycollapse.
• At a temperature of around 550
C, steelworkloses its ―load bearing capacity‖. Unprotectedsteelwork could attain this temperature withinminutes of a fire breaking out.
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 57/100
57
Steel Protection- against Fire
• Since, building regulations/legislation usuallydemands some form of fire protection isnecessary to protect the steel structure -allowing the fire brigade sufficient time to
bring the fire under control.
8/16/2019 Steel Structure.pdf
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/steel-structurepdf 58/100
58
Method of Steel Protection - against
fire• In the case of the columns this is usually
done by encasing it in some form of fire
resistant structure such as masonry, concrete
or plasterboard.
• The beams may be cased in concrete,
plasterboard or sprayed with a coating to
insulate it from the heat of the fire or it can beprotected by a fire resistant ceiling
construction.

Steel Protection – Against Corrosion
Corrosion is a multifacetedphenomenon that adversely affects andcauses deterioration in metals throughoxidization. Millions of dollars of loss
throughout the metal industry can beattributed to metal corrosion
Corrosion of steel is an electrochemicalreaction that requires the presence ofwater (H2O), oxygen (O2) and ions suchas chloride ions (Cl—), all of which existin the atmosphere.

Coating Protection against corrosion
• The most common metallic coating used toprotect steel construction products is hot dip
galvanising. Very simply, the process involves
coating the surface of the steel with a very
thin coating of a corrosion-resistant metal,
usually zinc or an aluminium/zinc alloy.

Coating Protection against corrosion
• Many flat steel construction products such ascladding and roofing products have an
organic coating for increased durability and
enhanced appearance. A range of different
coatings is available depending upon theproduct and the application. Coating
thicknesses vary from 15 to 25 micrometers
(0.6 to 0.8 mils). .

Steel Frame Structures • The construction of a framework of structural
steel involves two principal operations:
fabrication and erection. Fabrication involves
the processing of raw materials to form thefinished members of the structure.

Steel Frame Structures
• Erection includes all rigging, hoisting, or lifting ofmembers to their proper places in the
structure
and making the finished connections
between members.
• A wide variety of structures are erected using
structural steel. Basically, they can be list
ed as buildings, bridges, and towers; most otherstructures are modifications of these three.

• In steel frame (skeleton construction), all liveload and dead loads are carried by thestructural-frame skeleton. For this reason, theexterior walls are non bearing curtain walls.
• Roof and floor loads are transmitted to beamsand girders, which are, in turn, supported bycolumns. The horizontal members or beamsthat connect the exterior columns are called
spandrel beams.

Steel Frame
• There is no limitation to the area of floor androof that can be supported using skeletonconstruction. One limitation on using skeletonconstruction, however, is the distance betweencolumns.

Steel Frame-Long Span
• Oftentimes, large structures, such as aircr aft hangars, may require greaterdistances between supports than can bespanned by the standard structural steelshapes.
• In this case, one of several methods of long-span steel construction is used. One
method uses built-up girders to span thedistances between supports.

Steel Frame-Long Span
• The built-up girder consists of steel platesand shapes that are combined together tomeet the necessary strength. The individualparts of these girders are connected bywelding or riveting.

Steel Frame-Long Span
• Another method, which is usually moreeconomical, is to use a truss to span largedistances.
• A truss is a frame work of structural membersconsisting of atop chord, bottom chord anddiagonal web members that are usuallyplaced in a triangular arrangement.
• A trusses can be fabricated to conform to theshape of nearly any roof system.

Steel Frame-Long Span• A third long-span method, although not as
versatile as trusses, is the use of bar joists.Bar joists are much lighter than trusses and arefabricated in several different types.
• One type is Prefabricated bar joists, designed
to conform to specific load requirements, areobtainable from commercial/factory producerie- space frame, space deck
• Other long-span construction methods involved
several different types of framing systems,which include steel arches, cable-hung frames,and other types of systems ie tension cablestructure, tension membrane structure.

Structural Steel Connectors • There are four basic connectors used in
making structural steel connections. They arebolts, welds, pins, and rivets.
• Bolts and welds are the most commonconnectors used in military construction.
• Pins are used for connections at the ends ofbracing rods and varioussupport members thatrequire freedom of rotation.
• Commercial prefabricated steel assembliesmay be received in
the site with riveted connectors.

Bolts• Bolts are used more than any other type of
connectors. They are easy to use and, in contrastto all other types of connectors, require littlespecial equipment.
• The development of higher strength steels and
improvedmanufacturing processes have resulted in theproduction of bolts that produce strong structuralsteel connections.
• Specifications for most bolted structural joints callfor the use of high-strength steel bolts tightened toa high tension.

• Joints that are required to resist shear betweenconnected parts are designated as eitherfriction type or bearing type bolts connectors.
• Bolted parts
should fit solidly together when they areassembled and should NOT be separated bygaskets or any other type of compressiblematerial. Holes should be a nominal diameter,
not more that 2mm in excess of the nominalbolt diameter.

• When the bolted parts are assembled, all jointsurfaces should be free of dirt, and otherforeign material. Contact surfaces with friction-type joints must be free of oil, paint, or
other coatings.

Welds
• Welding is a highly specialized skill, andwelding of load-bearing parts of a structure
should be performed only by properly
qualified personnel.
• They should have a general knowledge of theprincipal welding processes and the differe
nt types of welds and their applications.
• They should know how welding symbolsare used to identify welded connections
shown in working drawings.

Welding Method
• The two principal welding processes usedin structural work are electric arc weldingand oxy-MAPP gas welding.
• In the electric arc welding process, weldingheat, sufficient to fuse the metal together, is
developed by an electric arc formed betweena suitable electrode (welding rod) and thebase metal (the metal of the partsbeing welded).

Welding Method
• In the oxy-MAPP gas welding process,heat is obtained by burning a mixture ofMAPP gas and oxygen as it is dischargedfrom a torch designed for this purpose. Whileelectric arc welding is normally used formetals that are 3mm or larger in thickness,oxy-MAPP gas welding is usually restricted tothinner metals.

Rivets• Metal bolt or pin having a head on one end,
inserted through aligned holes in the pieces tobe joined and then hammered on the plain endso as to form a second head.
• rivet is a permanent mechanical fastener. Before
being installed a rivet consists of a smoothcylindrical shaft with a head on one end.
• The end opposite the head is called the buck-tail . On installation the rivet is placed in apunched or pre-drilled hole, and the tail is upset ,or bucked (i.e. deformed), so that it expands toabout 1.5 times the original shaft diameter,holding the rivet in place.
