Expert Solution
Step 1
Answer
Length of connection (L) is equal to the distance between first and last bolts in the line.
When there are two or more line of bolts then L is the length of the line with maximum number of bolts
In case of staggered bolt pattern, L is the out to out dimension between the extreme bolts in a line.
Maximum L for a line should be choosen when equal number of bolts are present in both the line but different spacing
