GENERAL Scope This teaching document shows the calculation of sign board frame installation on a given offshore structure. The case study is that the sign board is required to be installed in a cellar deck of a platform. The scope of work is to design sign board frame and structure that can withstand wind load of 35.8 m/s. The structure should also withstand ground motion of UBC 1997 region 3. Executive Summary The sign board frame is designed as a steel structure. Structure computer modelling is using SAP 2000 is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 2. Sign Board Frame Structure Back View The frame to support the sign board will be installed on the edge of cellar deck, bolted on its leg, and clamped to the tubular column. As shown in Figure 2, there are four legs that had been modelled as fix restraint and 2 clamps in the middle of the frame board that had been modelled vertically as hinge restraint.

LOADING The following loads were considered for the computer analysis:

3.1

Dead Load & Super Imposed Dead Load (SIDL) Dead load comprised the structural self-weight automatically generated by the SAP computer program. Super imposed dead load comprised the weight of the board (without frame). The board is aluminium with density of 2700 kg/m3 and thickness of 2 mm. SIDL = 2700 kg/m3 x 0.002 m SIDL = 5.4 kg/m2 = 5.4 x 9.8 kg.f/m2 = 0.52 kN/m2 F = 0.52 kN/m2 x (sign board area) = 0.52 x (3.05 x 1.5) = 2.379 kN F, per 4 length = 2.379 /4 = 0.59475 kN F, per length = 0.59475 / 3.05 = 0.195 kN/m = 1.95 x 10-4 kN/mm

Live Load Live load is assumed working on top frame during installation and maintenance. This is based on assumption that only one worker will stand on top of the frame hen assembling the structure. Point load P = 100 kg = 980 kg.f = 9.61 kN

3.3

Rain Load Refer to ASCE, rain load is designed 10 kg/m2. This load is distributed on top of the frame. Lw = 10 kg/m2 = 0.96 kN/m2 Prain = 0.96 kN/m2 Upper frame area = 3050 x 75 = 228750 mm2 = 0.22875 m2 Frain = 0.96 kN/m2 x 0.22875 m2 = 0.2196 kN = 7.08 x 10-5 kN/mm

Wind load Design wind pressures for buildings and structures and elements therein shall be determined for any height in accordance with the following formula:

Amedito Ramadhan

P = Ce Cq qs Iw Where P = Design wind pressure (kN/m2) Ce = Combined height, exposure and gust factor coefficient (Ref. UBC 1997 Chapter 16 Table 16-G). The exposure is categorized in Exposure D due to the fact that the sign board is installed in the offshore area. Cq = Pressure coefficient for the structure or portion of structure (Ref. UBC1997 Chapter 16 Table 16-H), see Figure 4. qs = Wind stagnation pressure at the standard height of 10 m. = 0.78556 kN/m2 for Basic Wind Speed : 35.8 m/s (= 129 km/h) (Ref. UBC1997 Chapter 16 Table 16-F). The Basic Wind Speed refer to the Exposure D definition. (Ref. UBC1997 Chapter 16 Section 1616). Iw = Importance factor (Ref. UBC1997 Chapter 16 Table 16-K and S-900-1220-001 Project Design Data section 2.1)

Figure 7. Wind pressure Coefficient Cq Wind Calculation Based on the above equation, wind pressure was calculated on for every side of board. The board is assumed as a wall with small segment of z axis as the thickness. This value of thickness is considered too small to has an impact from z direction wind (Cq = 0). Due to this adjustment, the leeward wind is also assumed has the same number of windward Cq and not reduced to 0.5. Figure 5 shows wall naming and Table 1 shows wind pressures acting on each side of wall.

Length of frame in total = 22.7 m P, per frame length = 4.974 / 22.7 = 0.22 kN/m = 2.2 X 10-4 kN/mm W0 = Px1 + Px2 = 2.2 X 10-4 + 2.2 X 10-4 = 4.4 X 10-4 kN/mm W180 = Px1 + Px2 = 2.2 X 10-4 + 2.2 X 10-4 = 4.4 X 10-4 kN/mm

Figure 14. Joint Reaction 7. 7.1 CONNECTION Welded Connection Because of the restriction to do welding activity in platform, the board and the frame are assembled together in onshore area. The welded connection is used to enhance the board with the main and inner frame. A relatively small depth of material will become molten, and upon cooling, the structural steel and the weld material will act as one continuous part where they are joined. In this computer modelling, the welded connections are assigned as fix connection.

Figure 15. Frame Front View 7.2 Bolted Connection Type of bolt that is being used in the connection design is the High Strength Bolt A325. This bolt relies on initial force called proof load during the early fastening. The proof load

will provide friction so that the bolt connection performs serviceability limit state before it goes to strength limit state under bigger load. For sign board designing, high strength bolts are sufficient because it is best used to resist alternating force.
