1 Base Plate Modeling in STAAD.Pro 2007 By RAM/STAAD Solution Center 24 March 2007

2 Introduction: Base plates are normally designed using codebase procedures (e.g. AISC-ASD). Engineers often run into situations where there are no codes available to design a particular type of a base plate or there are instances where base plate were simply over designed in the past and the engineer has to check the design of this old base plate based upon new loadings and make modifications as required. In these situations, an engineer may opt to do a finite element analysis on the base plate. STAAD.Pro 2007 is equipped with a lot of mesh generation and loading tools. The purpose of this document is to demonstrate how engineers can analyze base plates using STAAD.Pro Figure 2: Plan view of tank base plate We would like to thank Mr. Indranil Roy Chowdhury, P.Eng. from Hartford Installations, Missisauga, Ontario for allowing us to publish this document. Please note that this document assumes that the user has basic knowledge of STAAD.Pro and Finite Element Analysis. Exercise Problem: We would like to create the following base plate geometry in STAAD.Pro. This base plate was used to support a tank leg. The tank leg pipe diameter is 0.9ft and the thickness of the pipe is 0.5 in thick. Figure 3: Elevation view of base plate stiffener 1. Open a new STAAD.Pro file using the space option and the units of ft and kip. Figure 4: File creation dialog box Figure 1: Isometric sketch of tank base plate 2. Give an appropriate file name. 3. Click on the Next button and then click on the Finish button on the following screen. 2

3 The STAAD.Pro interface will appear as shown in Figure 5. Figure 7: The Base_Plate grid is shown in the Graphics Window. 7. Draw the outline of the base plate using beam elements. Press the Snap Node/Beam button in the Data Area. Figure 5: STAAD.Pro user interface 4. Create a new grid. Click on the Create button in the data area. The Linear input box will appear as shown in Figure 6. Figure 8: Outline beams created using the grid system. 8. Now we have to create the pipe section/base plate and the stiffener/base plate interface. 9. Click on the Create button in the Data Area. 10. Select the Radial grid option and enter the input parameters as shown in Figure 9. Figure 6: Linear grid box 5. Input the parameters as shown in Figure Click on the Ok button. You will notice the Base_Plate Entry in the Data Area. Figure 9: Circular grid layout for base plate/stiffener and column/stiffener interface. 11. Click the Ok button. 12. Turn on the stiffeners grid and the radial grid will appear in the STAAD.Pro graphics window as illustrated in Figure 10. 3

4 purpose of finite element analysis we should always try to maintain the aspect ratio of the elements. In this case, we performed the translational repeat on the beam elements because we wanted to do a plate infill and create the plate elements. We simply broke the 2.5 long pipe into 5 sections because we knew that the pipe circumference is broken down into eight 0.5 lengths. Figure 10:Stiffners grid in the STAAD.Pro Graphics window. 13. Draw the base plate/stiffener and column/stiffener interface using the stiffeners grid. Figure 13:Translational Repeat Command. 19. Now we need to create the top portion of the stiffener. You can do this by creating a new stiffener grid at 2.5 elevation. Figure 11 Base plate/stiffener and column/stiffener interface drawn using the Stiffeners grid. 14.

This preview mode lets the user identify any problems in the FEM model. In Figure 34, we can see that there is a plate connectivity problem at the pipe/base plate interface. Figure 34: Meshing for stiffeners. 70. Type a mesh name as shown in Figure 34 (i.e. BasePlate). 71. Click on the Ok button. 72. You will notice that the mouse cursor will change.

11 avoid dividing each of the divided edges into smaller pieces. 97. Check if the model is ok from the plate to plate connectivity point of view by clicking on Tools->Check for improperly connected plates menu command. Property Assignment: 98. We will assign 0.5, 0.4 and 0.6 thickness to the pipe, stiffeners, and base plates respectively. Figure 40: Number of edge divisions set to Click on the Ok button. 91. Select the View->Whole Structure menu command. 92. Press the Esc key on your keyboard to cancel the Generate Surface Meshing command. 93. Select the beams cursor and press the Ctrl+A key to select all the beams. 99. In a 3D model, it is sometimes difficult to extract a particular section and assign a property to it. For example, it is difficult to select the pipe section out of the 3D model we have and assign the appropriate thickness to it. One could assign plate elements to groups when the geometry is being created. In the case of this example, we know that the number of plates along the circumference = 8 and number of divisions along the height of the pipe= 5. Hence, the number of plates used to create the pipe = 8x5=40 plate elements. Click on Select -> By List -> Plates menu command The Select Plates dialog box will appear as shown in Figure Press the delete key on your keyboard and press Ok on the following dialog box. 95. Right click in the graphics window and select the 3D Rendering option. Figure 42: Rendered view of the base plate geometry. Figure 41: Rendered view of the base plate geometry. 96. Close the rendered mode by simply clicking on the Setup control tab on the left The first plate numbering starts from 117. Hence, to select the first fifty plates in the model, we will need to provide the range of 117 to 167 in the Enter List input box Click on the Select Listed Entities button in the Select Plates dialog box. 11

The Diagrams dialog box will appear as shown in Figure This base pressure can be compared with the soil bearing capacity. If the soil bearing capacity is exceeded, you may have to increase the base plate dimensions or increase the size of the plates, provide more stiffeners etc. In this case, the maximum base pressure is ksi. If the allowable base pressure is ksi, this base plate design in ok from the serviceability check point of view Select the Plate tab on the left. The Diagrams dialog box will appear as shown in Figure Select Max Absolute in the Stress Type selection box Click on the Ok button You will be able to see the stress distribution diagram as illustrated in Figure 66.

19 Existing Model was modified to add more stiffeners (Approx. 20 min to modify the existing model): Figure 66: Stress Distribution Diagram 214. You can compare these values with the allowable steel stress. In this case, the stress in the steel is about 12 ksi. Recommended Exercises: - Try to increase the moment until you see some uplift. What is the best way to see if your base plate is experiencing uplift? - Try increasing the thickness of the stiffeners. How does this affect the base pressure distribution? Try a thinner base plate. - What if you want to put in more stiffeners? Figure 66: Uplift Conditions 19
