CHECK FOR GLASS FIN SUPPORT
Reaction on top support due to wind load, V = 1.44x2x6.6/2 = 9.504kN
Factored reaction, RWL = 1.5x9.504 = 14.26kN
Factored reaction, RDL = 1.35*(6.56kN + 3.55kN) = 13.65kN

Since the bottom support is the same, the top support governs due to the dead load reaction
STRESS AT THE BOLT LOCATION
The upper bolted area does not have huge stresses as shown in FEM.
