Transcribed Image Text:Problem 1: A butt joint shown in Figure ST – 127 using A325 bolts with a diameter of 16
mm with threads excluded in a shear plane. The plate used is A36 steel with Fy = 400 MPa.
Use LRFD. Hole diameter is 3 mm larger than the bolt diameter.
1. Compute the design strength Pu of the connection based on bearing of the plate. Hint:
The inner plate will govern. No need of checking the outer plate.
2. Compute the design strength Pu of the connection based on bolt shear. Hint: the bolt is
in double shear. As is times 2 for every bolt.
