b) Determine the nominal bearing capacity for each plate.
c) Determine the nominal rupture capacity of each plate.
d) What is the nominal capacity of the connection?
e) Using LRFD, is this connection capable of supporting a dead load of 150 kip and a live

A tension connection consists of A36 steel double angles (two L4x4x1/4 shapes, or 2L4x4x1/4)
fastened to a 4x10 No. 2 Red Oak member with a single row of four 0.875 inch A307 bolts.
The connection is subjected to normal temperatures but wet in-service conditions. Assume
the group action factor is C,=0.95 and the geometry factor is Ca=1. The controlling ASD
load combination is D+ L where L is from occupancy.

in Figure e5.20. The steel is A572 Grade 65 and the 7/8 in
diameter A325 bolts are in a bearing-type connection (A325-
X) with no threads in the shear planes. The load is 25% dead
load and 75% live load
