2. A 1/2X5 plate of A36 steel is used as a tension member. It is connected to a gusset plate with four 5/8-inch-diameter bolts as shown in the figure. Assume that the effective net area Ac equals the actual net area An. Find the axial tensile load capacity Pt. (Note: An Ag-Aholes, P-0.5FUA,, Fu=58ksi ) ½ in. Gusset PL PL x5 in. + % in. ¼ in. %-in.-diameter bolts Section
