Determine the axial strength of the plates in direct tension, Civil Engineering

Assignment Help:

The two plates shown below are each 10-in. wide by ¾- in. thick. The gage distance, g, and the longitudinal spacing on each member is set at 4-in. Determine the axial strength of the plates in direct tension. Assume grade 36 steel (Fy = 36 ksi, Fu = 58 ksi). The bolts used are ¾-in.

Answer:

Gross Yielding:

φTn= 0.90*36 ksi * 10-in. * 0.75-in. = 243 kip

Net fracture:

There are three possible failure modes for the net section:

For failure mode 1, the net section is:

An = (10-in. - 2*(13/16-in.))*0.75-in = 6.28 in2

For failure mode 2 and 3, the net section is:

An = (10-in. - 3*(13/16-in.)+2*((4-in)2/(4*4-in.))*0.75-in = 9.5625 in2

The smallest area will govern, so failure mode 1 will be the lowest:

φTn = 0.75*58 ksi * 6.28in2 = 273 kip

Thus, the gross section is lower, the answer is 243 kips.
