Abstract— Circular base plates are commonly used forcylindrical columns; such as pylons in cabled-stayed bridges,lighting poles, electric power line posts, and even buildings. Insome structures a little gap is considered between base plateand foundation. In this case compressive bolts which transmitcompressive forces to the foundation are also considered indesign of base plate. The purpose of this study is design ofcircular base plates on the effect of applying the axial load andlarge bending moment in the case that tensile and compressiveforces are transmitted to foundation via bolts. An exactmethod has not been presented about design of this status yet,therefore in this study we can offer suitable method for designof circular base plates by expression of mathematic formulas.By considering the graphs in the end of this paper, can beconcluded that, this status is very useful for axial force withlarge eccentric. In other words, this status for axial force withlarge eccentric gives little design thickness than the otherstatus that a gap is not considered.
Keywords: circular base plate; compressive bolt; little gap;large bending moment; mathematic formulas
I. INTRODUCTION
Generally steel columns are placed on the foundationwith steel plate which is involved on the one hand withcolumn and on the other hand with concrete. Since the steelcolumn undergo the large stresses due to high resistance andconcrete has no ability to undergo these stresses, thereforebase plate is used for increasing the force transmission levelto foundation and reducing it to allowable limit of foundationmaterials strength. From the types of base plates can bementioned rectangular or circular base plates, which circularbase plates are commonly used for cylindrical columns suchas pylons in cabled-stayed bridges, lighting poles, electricpower line posts, and even buildings. In this paper from thetypes of loading states in columns such as; pure axial force,axial force and small bending moment, and axial force andlarge bending moment, we are going to show a newprocedure for designing of base plate in state of loading withaxial force and large bending moment. Usually to designbase plates in this status, no gap is supposed between plateand foundation. By considering the stress distribution in thisstatus, tensile forces are transferred by anchor bolts andcompressive forces are transferred by base plate tofoundation. Therefore by considering the maximum tolerablecontact stress of concrete foundations according to AISC
code which is equal to cf ′7.0 ( cf ′ is 28 days compressivestrength of cylindrical concrete specimen), the transferablemaximum compressive force value to foundation will belimited [1]. Dajin Liu presents an approximate method fordesign of this status [2]. In this paper to resolve this issue, itis considered a little gap between base plate and foundationand because the allowable compressive stress of anchor boltis equal to yF6.0 ( yF is the yielding stress of the anchorbolt), more compressive force can be transferred tofoundation [1]. In other words the proposed method is usedto design of columns with axial load by large eccentric (axialload and large bending moment). To do this, we suppose thatthe utmost compressive anchor bolt reach to the maximumvalue of compressive force and the compressive zone ofplate reach to the critical status simultaneously.
II. PROPOSED METHOD

in which; T is the tensile forces resultant and F is thecompressive forces resultant.Therefore according to the equations (16) and (17), T andF are the function of x .
In equations (16) and (17), 1T and 1′F are also unknowns.Therefore if equations (14), (15), and (17) insert intoequation (3), the whole equation (3) will be function of xbut be value of 1′F will be unknown. For dispelling thisproblem, we suppose that the anchor bolt of 1′ reach toallowable compressive stress. Therefore:
byb AFAF .6.0.11 == ′′ σ . (18)By determination of 1′F , value of 1T is calculated by
using of mathematic similarity. Now the whole equation (3)will be function of x which solving this equation isaccomplished by using of trial and error iteration fordifferent value of x .

which TF is allowable tensile stress of the anchor bolts.The thickness of the base plate is calculated by

in which; crM is critical bending moment of base plate, Wis the section modulus of base plate, and bF is allowablebending stress of base plate.
We express the critical bending moment of base plate asfollowing:
crM = sum of the compressive anchor bolts moment aroundthe columnTherefore according to the Fig. 4, we have:

Also the section modulus is calculated based on therelevant strip of compressive part of column margent. If thelength of the compressive part of strip is equal to l ,according to the Fig. 5, we have:

III. PRESENTING RESULTS
After analytical computations and concluding functionsof xTF ,, and t , more than 130 lines computer program iswritten in MACRO and some numerical examples is solvedto observe how these parameters change when loading orradius of base plate changes.
To do so a plate is supposed with 12 bolts of 10 squarecentimeters in area which placed to plates edge in 5centimeter.
Three statuses are assumed in which the ratio of aR is 2:
A. tonP 15=
The variation of xF , and t is as Fig. 6 to 8:

IV. CONCLUSIONS
By observing the graphs, it is seen that also the axial loadis very big and its eccentricity is big too, the thickness ofbase plate is not too much. It means that by combination ofplate and bolts for transition of loads to foundation, we canhave much more thin plate to do so or on the other hands,with same thickness; we are able to tolerate bigger forceswith large eccentricity without failure.
By writing a computer program, it is easy to insert axialforce, eccentricity, and other dimensions o plate, column andbolts, and have the value of base plate thickness. What'smore value of axial force in bolts and other parametersmentioned before can be observed too.
