Nominal tension rupture strength = Ubs Fu Ant
Nominal shear rupture strength = 0.6 Fu Anv
Shear yielding strength = 0.6 Fy Agv
0.6Fy yield shear strength = τy
0.6Fu ultimate shear strength = τu
Ø = 0.75 (LRFD)
Agv = gross area subjected to shear
Anv = net area in shear

Ubs = tensile rupture strength reduction factor
(subscript ‘bs’ stands for block shear)
= 1.0 when tensile stress is uniform, such
as in all tensile members and gusset
plates and single row beam end
connections
= 0.5 when tensile stress is not uniform
such as for multiple row beam end
connections
