(3) Allowable Strength

General Interaction of Strength and Combined Tension & Shear
Pu Pn/ --- Compression
Tu Tn/ --- Tension
Vu Vn/ --- Shear
Tu / (Tn/) + Vu / (Vn/) 1.2 (Reference : Section D.7 of ACI 318-11)
Note : Friction between the base plate and the grout will resist shear forces. Therefore
if Pu* > Vu, shear check of anchor bolt can be ignored.
Where : = 0.55 (coefficient of friction for steel on grout)

Allowable Strength
Pn/ = Min. Pi i = 1, 2 [kN]
Tn/ = Min. Ti i = 1, 2 [kN]
Vn/ = V1 [kN]

A.1) Axial Load Capacity (see Section 3.1.1 of AISC Design Guide 1)
P1 = ( 0.85 * f'c * A1 * (A2/A1)1/2 ) / [kN]
= 2.50 (A2/A1) 2
 A.2) Base Plate Bending (see Section 3.1.2 of AISC Design Guide 1)
P2 = tp2 * Fyp * B * N / (( 2 * L2 ) * ) [kN]

L= max m = ( N - 0.95 * dc ) / 2 [mm]
n = ( B - 0.80 * bfc ) / 2 [mm]

Note: Concrete Breakout Strength due to tension loading can be ignored if pedestal
detail is according to drawing no. 1TA-NC-CXSV2-0002.

B.2) Base Plate Bending (see Section 4.5 of AISC Design Guide 1)
(Refer to Figure 1.0)
T2 = nb * Fyp * beff * tp2 / (( 4 * g ) * ) [kN] (For Type - 1)
T2 = 2*nb * Fyp * beff * tp2 / (( 3 * g ) * ) [kN] (For Type - 2)
