A double-angle bar shape is used as a tension member. The angle bars are bolted to a wide flange with 25 mm diameter bolts. The wide flange and angle bar are both A36, assuming that the wide flange and the bolts have an adequate capacity to carry the tensile load. Determine the design and allowable strength of the tension member.
