Projeto de passarela para pedestres utilizando perfis de aço formado a frio

Abstract

The development of this diploma work aims to the production of a structural design of a pedestrian bridge, in which will be applied the cold-formed steel profile for the dimensioning of the structure. Initially, the project solutions were set, as well as the features of the materials used and the basic dimensions for understanding the structure. After this, there was adopted the most adequate structural system to the superstructure and the mesostructure. Thereafter it was passed to the structure's calculus sheet, in which is defined the loads acting on the board, so that, hereinafter, one can analyze the structure, thus obtaining the compression and traction loads. From these calculation loads, the most adequate profiles were dimensioned to resisting the loads that the several elements of the superstructure will be subjected to. Thereafter there are performed the safety checks according to the applicable standards. Lastly the conclusions reached based on the analysis of the results obtained are exposed.
