Check for the Anchor Bolts due to seismic and wind loading
1) For longitudinal forces FL
Shear Stress T = F L/ A = 3168.9738 psi

Bending Stress Sb = Mmax/(A x L") = 1712.9588 psi

Resultant Stress (SB2 + 3T2)0.5 = 5749.9055 psi

Adequacy check Resultant Stress = 5749.9055 psi

Allowable stresses = 15000 psi

Design is safe
2) For Tansversel forces FT
Shear Stress T = FT/ A = 1584.4869 psi

Bending Stress SB = 2 x Mmax/(A x Y) = 6275.1957 psi

Resultant Stress (3SB2 + T2)0.5 = 10983.845 psi

Adequacy check Resultant Stress = 10983.845 psi

Allowable stresses = 15000 psi

Design is safe

Maximum Horizontal Shear Force calculation (Seismic & Wind Load)

1) Longitudinal Direction

a) Seismic Loading (By UBC)

FLS = Seismic coefficient x Sesmic Load Ah = 0.1375
= Ah x W W = 38580.89 lb

FLS = 5304.873 lb

b) Wind Loading (IS 875)

FLW = Wind coefficient x Exposed Area x Wind Pressure
= Cw x (Do x Z + (0.785 x Do )/2) x Pwind Cw =
2
0.7
Z = 78.74 inch
FLW = 992.5103 lb Do = 62.99213 inch
Pwind = 0.21755 psi

Therefore Maximum of both is used in further calculations

Flmax = 5304.873 lb

And maximum Moment is Mlmax = Z * FLmax

Mlmax = 417706.5 lb.inch

2) Transverse Direction

a) Seismic Loading (By UBC)

FLS = Seismic coefficient x Sesmic Load Ah = 0.1375
= 0.5 x Ah x W W = 38580.89 lb

FLS = 2652.436 lb

b) Wind Loading (IS 875)

FLW = Wind coefficient x Exposed Area x Wind Pressure
= 0.5 x Cw x (Do x L + 2 x (h x Do)) x Pwind Cw = 0.7
FLW = 1061.246 lb Do = 62.99213 inch
L = 189.7638 inch
h = 15.74803 inch
Pwind = 0.21755 psi

Therefore Maximum of both is used in further calculations

Flmax = 2652.436 lb
And maximum Moment is Mlmax = Z * FLmax
Mlmax = 208853.3 lb.inch
