Check for stress in Top plate:

Critical stress in the top plate occurs between the hole and the free edge of the plate
For convenience we can consider this portion of the top plate vas a beam with partially fixed
ends, with a portion of the total anchor bolt load distributed along part of the span,

P Max Bolt uplift load =U/Nb 5761 N 1.30 kips

S Allowable stress 137 MPa 19.8 ksi
c [P/f*S (0.375g-0.22d)]½ = 0.20 inch

Provided Top Plate thickness 8.00 mm

Provided Top Plate Thickness is sufficient

Check for Induced stress in shell at attachment for provided skirt height

Maximum stress at the top of the chairs in vertical direction is a combination of bending plus
direct stress, based on Bjilaard formulas
