STRUT COMPRESSION RESISTANCE CHECK

4.0 M DEEP TRENCH

Maximum Strut force from plaxis, F1 (kN/m) = 47.2
Load Factor = 1.5

Member Properties
Strut = 152X152X37
Spacing of Strut, L1 (m) = 2.0

Original Area, A(mm2/m) = 4710.0

Area with 15 % reduction = 4003.5

Allowable yield stress (N/mm2) 275

Allowable compression resistance, Pv(kN/m) = (Area × Py)

= 1101.0

Maximum Factored strut Force (kN/m) = (FOS × F1 × L1)

= 141.6 < 1101.0
