A double-angle tension member, 2L 3 x 2 x 4 LLBB, of A36 steel is subjected to a dead load of 12 kips and a live load of 36 kips. It is connected to a gusset plate with one-line of 3/4-inch-diameter bolts through the long legs. Does this member have enough strength? Assume that Ae = 0.85An. Use LRFD. Use ASD.
