1.1 Introduction
An exposed steel structure is proposed. The steel is S355 to BS EN 10025 and the
thickest element is 30 mm. Beams are welded to the column flanges and the
maximum tensile stress is 200 N/mm2. Choose an appropriate sub-grade to avoid
brittle fracture.
For welded connections to unstiffened flanges with stress > 0.3 Ynom Table 3
K = 0.5
30 mm< 33 mm OK
Finally, check that the maximum thickness in the component does not exceed the Table 6
limit for which the full Charpy impact value applies, t2, as given in Table 6.
30 mm < 100 mm OK
