(i) CHECK MOMENT CAPACITY OF PLATE

Max. Tension Force (T) = 14.00 kN

(Leff) = 2m+0.625e+p
m = 40 mm
e = 40 mm
p = 300 mm
Eff.Length (Leff) = 405 mm
Moment (M = T x b) = 2.38 kNm
Thickness = 16.0 mm
Moment Capacity (Mc = Pyp x Leff x tp2/6) = 4.75 kNm > 2.38 kNm
OK

(ii) CHECK BEARING CAPACITY OF STEEL PLATE

Resultant ShearForce Fs = 14.0 kN

Bolt/Screw Diameter d = 16.0 mm
Thk of Connecting Part T = 16.0 mm
Stress of Connecting Part Pbs = 460.0 N/mm2
Edge distance e = 40.0 mm
Bearing Capacity BRF = 117.76 kN > 14.00 kN
BRF = kbs*d*T* Pbs or 0.5*e*T*pbs*kbs OK
