Please show solutions on how to get the 0.250 value. The circle green in the figure.

Civil engineering- steel design

 

3.5-3
A WT8 x 13 of A992 steel is used as a tension member. The connection is with 7/8-in.

the shear areas are
Agv 0.250(13.5) = 3.375 in.²
and, since there are 4.5 hole diameters,
Anv = 0.250[13.5-4.5(7/8 + 1/8)] = 2.25 in.²
The tension areas are
Agt = 0.25(7.85-4.5) = 0.8375 in.²
Ant = 0.25[7.85-4.5 -0.5(1.0)] = 0.7125 in.²
Fy = 50 ksi, Fu = 65 ksi
Rn = 0.6FuAny + UbsFuAnt = 0.6(65)(2.25) + 1.0(65) (0.7125) = 134 kips
Check upper limit:
0.6FyAgy+UbsFuAnt = 0.6(50) (3.375) + 1.0(65)(0.7125)
= 148 kips > 134 kips
R₁ = 134 kips
