The figures below show a formed sheet-steel bracket. The total distributed load “W” on the bracket is 20 kN. It is secured to the support with two grade 5.8 bolts. The joint constant is C=0.183, and the bolts are preloaded to 70 percent of the proof load. The dimensions of the top flange are the same as the mounting flange. a) Find the external loads (P1 and P2) carried by upper and bottom bolts respectively if both resist the moment? b) Find the upper bolt diameter by ignoring direct shear load and determine/select a standard metric bolt size with a pitch for a design factor of 1,4. c) Is there any need to enlarge 5 mm dia. holes in the bracket?

Question

The figures below show a formed sheet-steel bracket. The total distributed load “W” on the 
bracket is 20 kN. It is secured to the support with two grade 5.8 bolts. The joint constant is 
C=0.183, and the bolts are preloaded to 70 percent of the proof load. The dimensions of 
the top flange are the same as the mounting flange.
a) Find the external loads (P1 and P2) carried by upper and bottom bolts respectively if both 
resist the moment?
b) Find the upper bolt diameter by ignoring direct shear load and determine/select a 
standard metric bolt size with a pitch for a design factor of 1,4.
c) Is there any need to enlarge 5 mm dia. holes in the bracket?
