Q-8 The tension member of a roof truss consists of two unequal angles 70 x 45 x 8 with the longer legs connected by 16 mm diameter rivets. If angles are one on either side of gusset plate, then safe tension for the member will be (assuming permissible stress in tension = 150 Mpa and sectional area of angle 858 mm²).
