DESIGN STRENGTH fRn PER BOLT FOR THE CONNECTION TO THE WEB OF THE BEAM / GIRDER

(a) Design strengths fRn per bolt for the connection to the web of the Beam/Girder,
the design strength in double shear (m=2)

fRn = fFnvmAb
fRn = 39.761 kips/bolt or 176.86 kN/bolt

Nominal Strength in bearing on the tw of web, for bolt spacing exceeds 3db

fRn = f2.4dtFu
fRn = 21.924 kips/bolt or 97.52281 kN/bolt

Pu (TOTAL CONNECTION FACTORED LOAD Pu CAPACITY BASED ON THE WEB CONNECTION TO THE BEAM)

(b) Pu (Total connection factored load Pu capacity based on the web connection to the beam)

Pu = nfRn Maximum
Pu = 87.70 kips or 390.0912 kN Maximum

If the eccentricity with respect to the fastener line were considered,

vert. S = 3
ex = 2.25
n bolts = 4
C= 4.27 Coefficient C
Pu = CfRn
Pu = 93.61548 kips or 416.42 kN
 DESIGN STRENGTH fRn PER BOLT FOR THE CONNECTION TO THE FLANGE OF THE COLUMN

(c) Design strength fRn per bolt for the connection to the flange of the column. The design strength
in single shear (m=1) is

fRn = fFnvmAb (single shear)

fRn= 19.88 kips/bolt or 88.432 kN
Min t = fRn/f/2.4/d/Fu
ULT = fFntAb
ULT = 37.4414 kips/bolt Upper Limit on Tension
Mint= 0.25 inches (Min t in Angles so that bearing will not govern)

TOTAL CONNECTION FACTTORED LOAD Pu CAPACITY ON THE CONNECTION TO THE FLANGE / END PLATE.

(d) Total connection factored Load Pu capacity based on the connection to the flange/End Plate.
Neglecting Eccentricity.

Pu= 159.04 kips or 707.46 kN

IF THE COMBINED SHEAR AND CONNECTION IS CONSIDERED, AND THE ELASTIC VECTOR METHOD IS USED

(e) If the combined shear & tension effect is considered, and the elastic vector method is used, the
factored Tension Tu at the most heavily loaded bolt
Tu= Mc/I x A
Tu= Puec/I x A
Tu= 0.075 Pu

and the direct shear per bolt is:

Vu= Pu/A x A
Vu= 0.125 Pu

Using AISC-Formulas (J3-2) and (J3-3a), nominal Load F'nt in tension permitted in the presence of shear

/Fnv fv <= Fnt

Eq. 4.14.3
fF'ntAb=f(1.3 Fnt - Fnt/f/Fnv fv)Ab <= Fnt

Let fF'ntAb= 0.075 Pu and 0.075 Pu

fvAb= 0.125 Pu

F'nt= 48.67 0.31 Pu

= 48.67 0.31 Pu
Pu= 125.1613 or 556.745 kN

Upper limit fRn(Tension) not exceeded!

END AND EDGE DISTANCES

(f) End and edge distances

Minimum end distance Le => 1.5 db

Le= 1.125 inches

SHEAR ON THE NET SECTION THROUGH THE ANGLES

(g) Shear on the net section through the angles

Weld throat= 10 mm 8.) Geometry Check:
Electrode Increase beam depth!
