Bolt Connection Design Based on AISC 360-10/16

INPUT DATA & DESIGN SUMMARY

STEEL YIELD STRESS Fy = 50 ksi, (345 MPa)
SIDE PLATE THICKNESS ts = 0.375 in by 1 One Side
( 10 mm )
Ab = 5 in2, (Total Section Area)
( 32.26 cm 2 )
E2 = 3 in, (76 mm)
BASE PLATE THICKNESS tb = 0.5 in, (13 mm)
3 E1 =
in, (76 mm)
TOTAL AXIAL LOAD, ASD 59 T =
kips, (262 kN)
(Single Shear)
e = 1 in, (to bolts center)
( 25 mm )
BOLT DIAMETER f = 1 in ( 1 in) <==(25 mm)
BOLT MATERIAL (A307, A325, A490) ASTM = A325
HOLE TYPE (STD, NSL, OVS, SSL, LSL) => STD
STD = Standard round holes ( d + 1/16 " )
NSL = Long or short-slotted hole normal to load direction
OVS = Oversize round holes
SSL = Short-slotted holes THE DESIGN IS ADEQUATE.
LSL = Long-slotted holes
CONNECTION TYPE (SC, N, X) => N
SC = Slip critical connection
N = Bearing-type connection with threads included in the shear plane
X = Bearing-type connection with threads excluded from the shear plane
BOLTS NUMBER 3 Rows 2 Columns, (Total 6 Bolts)
MINIMUM BOLT SPACING s = 3 in, (76 mm)

ANALYSIS
CHECK DIMENSION LIMITATIONS (AISC 360 J3)
Bolt spacing required = 3.00 in, (Tab J3.3) < 3 in [Satisfactory]
Edge spacing required = 1.75 in, (Tab J3.4) < Min(E 1 ,E 2 ) [Satisfactory]

CHECK BOLT CAPACITY (AISC 360 J3)

Maximum single bolt shear v = (T / 6 ) x 1.67 = 16.4 kips / bolt
< [Satisfactory]
Allowable shear capacity R n / Wv = 18.8 kips / bolt, (AISC Manual Table 7)

CHECK NET TENSION FRACTURE OF SIDE PLATE (AISC 360 J4.1)

F up = 58 ksi ( for plate, AISC Manual page. 2-39)
(F up / W ) [ A b - Col ( f + 1/8 ) t s ] = 126 kips > T [Satisfactory]

CHECK BASE PLATE BLOCK SHEAR (AISC 360 J4)

0.6 A v F up / W + A t F up / W = 135 kips
> 6 v = T x 1.67 = 98 kips
[Satisfactory]
Where Av = 6.1875 in2, (Total Shear Area)
At = 0.94 in2, (End Tension Area)

CHECK SIDE PLATE BLOCK SHEAR (AISC 360 J4)

0.6 A v F up / W + A t F up / W = 101 kips
> 6 v = T x 1.67 = 98 kips
[Satisfactory]
Where Av = 4.64 in2, (Total Shear Area) At = 0.70 in2, (End Tension Area)
