Question

The lap connection shown in Figure 3 shows nine 20 mm - diameter A325 bolts spaced as follows:

S1 = 50 mm S3 = 50 mm

S2 = 80 mm

S4= 100 mm

Thickness of plates, t= 25 mm Bolt hole diameter = 23 mm

Tensile strength and stresses:

Yield strength, Fy = 248 MPa

Tensile strength of steel, Fu = 400 MPa

Allowable tensile stress on gross area = 0.6Fy

Allowable tensile stress on net area = 0.5Fu

Allowable bolt shear stress= 120 MPa

Allowable bolt bearing strength = 480 MPa

Calculate the allowable tensile load (kN) based on the following conditions:

Based on bearing strength of bolt.

  2. 2387
  3. 2475
  4. 4320
    Based on shearing strength of bolts.
