2. Determine the design strength P of an A992 W18x50 connected by bolts on plates on both flanges as shown in the figure. Bolts are 1/2-inch diameter on standard holes. Use case 2 for the shear lag factor. te: For the shear lag factor, imagine the section as two WT-sections, each with half the nominal depth and half the linear weight of the W-section. The ance of the top most part of the flange of the WT-section from the centroid of the WT-section is the value of x.) 4 in 4 in 1.8 in W18x50
