Two UNP steel profiles are installed against each other.

These profiles are subjected

to tensile loads as shown below. The quality of steel profiles used is A36 with yield
stress and ultimate stress of 250 MPa and 400 MPa respectively. The bolt used is
M16 and mounted alternately. Calculate:

1. The design capacity of tensional member based on the effectiveness of the

tensile member itself!

2. The design capacity of tensional member based on the performance of the

connection system (block-shear)!
