(a) Check if the given connection follows the code provisions on spacing and edge distance limits. (b) Determine the maximum allowable service tensile load that the member is allowed to carry. Consider all applicable limit states for tension member and connection. Consider only block shear and bearing limit state for gusset plate. Use ASD specifications.

Transcribed Image Text:Consider the tension member shown below. The channel is made of ASTM A572 (Fy = 50
ksi; Fy = 65 ksi), and is connected to a 3/8-inch thick gusset plate made of ASTM A36
steel (F, = 36 ksi; Fu = 58 ksi). The bolts are 7/8 inch in diameter, made of ASTM A307
bolts. The bolted connection is bearing-type.
