**Exercise 23: WT8×50 Shear Lag Factor and Effective Net Area Calculation**

---

For a WT8×50 section attached through its flange to a 12×3/4 inch plate with eight 7/8 inch diameter bolts spaced at 3 inches apart and arranged in two rows as depicted in Figure P4.23, compute the shear lag factor. Consider Case 2 and Case 7 for this calculation. Additionally, determine the effective net area of the WT section.

---

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram illustrates a WT8×50 structural section connected to a 12×3/4 inch plate. The plate is secured to the WT section using bolts, visible in two rows on the flange. The schematic representation shows the size specifications and layout necessary to understand the bolted connection for this particular exercise.
