be calculated as:
P

LRFD & ASD for Tension Members

LRFD: the factored tensile load Pu is compared to


the design strength.

t = 0.9 for yielding


t = 0.75 for fracture

ASD: the total service load Pa is compared to the


allowable strength.

t = 1.67 for yielding


t = 2.00 for fracture
The smaller resistance factor for fracture (t = 0.75 as compared to t = 0.90
for yielding) reflects the more serious nature & consequences of reaching the
fracture limit state.

Effective Net Area, Ae

The connection has a significant influence on the


performance of a tension member. A connection

b & a measure off
its influence is called joint efficiency.

Joint efficiency is a function of:

material ductility
fastener spacing
stress concentration at holes
fabrication procedure
shear lag.

All factors contribute to reducing the effectiveness


but shear lag is the most important.
22

11

2/10/2014

Shear lag occurs when the tension force is not


transferred simultaneously to all elements of the
cross-section. This will occur when some elements
of the cross-section are not connected.
connected
For example, see the figure below, where only one
leg of an angle is bolted to the gusset plate.

23

The connected element becomes overloaded &


the unconnected part is not fully stressed.

Lengthening the connection region will reduce this


effect.

Research indicates that shear lag can be accounted


for by using a reduced or effective net area Ae

Shear lag affects both bolted & welded


connections Therefore
connections.
Therefore, the effective net area
concept applied to both types of connections.

For bolted connection, the effective net area is Ae = U An


For welded connection, the effective net area is Ae = U Ag

24

Area Reduction Factor U

To account for this stress concentration in stress, an


area reduction factor U is used.

There are five categories in determining U:


1. A general category for any type of tension member except plates
and round HSS with l > 1.3D
2. Plates
3. Round HSS with l > 1.3D
4. Alternative values for single
4
g angles
g
5. Alternative values for W, M, S, and HP shapes

25

1. A general category for any type of tension


member except plates and round HSS with l >
1.3D:
The reduction factor U is given by:

U 1
x

the distance from the centroid of the connected area to the


plane of the connection
the length of the connection in the direction of the load

If the member has two symmetrically located planes of connection,


is measured from the centroid of the nearest one half of the area.

If there are weld segments of different length in the direction of


load, L is the length of the longest segment.

2. Plates:
In general, U = 1.0 for plates (cross section has only
one element and it is connected).
Special cases:
a. Connected with longitudinal welds on each
side and no transverse weld.

U = 1.0
4. Alternatives for Single Angles:
a For four or more fasteners in the direction of

loading, U = 0.80.
b. For two or three fasteners in the direction of
loading, U = 0.60.

5. Alternatives for W, M, S, HP, or Tees Cut from

a. Connected through the flange with three or
more fasteners in the direction of loading, with
bf/d > 2/3, U = 0.90.
b. Connected through the flange with three or
more fasteners in the direction of loading, with
bf/d < 2/3, U = 0.85.
c. Connected through the web with four or more
fasteners in the direction of loading,
g, U = 0.70.

For shapes such as angles, double angles, and WT,
the value of U should not be less than 0.60.

Staggered Fasteners

38

19

2/10/2014

For a bolted tension member, the connecting bolts can


be staggered for several reasons:

To get more capacity by increasing the effective net area


To achieve a smaller connection length
g
To fit the geometry of the tension connection itself.

For a tension member with staggered bolt holes (see


example figure above), the relationship f = P/A does not
apply & the stresses are a combination of tensile &
shearing stresses on the inclined portion b-c.

Angles:
When holes are staggered on two legs of an angle, the
gage length (g) for use In the (s2/4g) expression is
obtained by using length between the centers of the
holes measured along the centerline of the angle

Design of Tension Members

LRFD:

The design of a tension member involves finding


the lightest steel section (angle, wide-flange, or
channel section) with design strength (Pn) greater
than or equal to the maximum factored design
tension load (Pu) acting on it.
Pn Pu
Pu is determined by structural analysis for factored load
combinations
Pn is the design strength based on the gross section

The slenderness limitation of tension members is not for

This limitation does not apply to tension rods and cables.
