Design a welded connection. The given loads are service loads. Use Fy =50 ksi for the angle tension member and Fy=36 ksi for the gusset plate. Show your results on a sketch, complete with dimensions. a. Use LRFD. b. Use ASD.
Design a welded connection for an MC9x23.9 of A572 Grade 50 steel connected to a 3/8-inch-thick gusset plate (Figure 6). The gusset plate is A36 steel. Show your results on a sketch, complete with dimensions. = 3/8" Figure 6 D = 48 k L = 120 k MC9 x 23.9 a. Use LRFD. b. Use ASD.
Problem 7: The load that will be applied to the connection shown has a live load - to - dead load ratio of 3.0. Investigate all limit states. All structural steel is A36, and the weld is a 1/4-inch fillet weld with E70 electrodes. Note that the tension member is a double-angle shape, and both of the angles are welded as shown. Use ASD. Determine the following. 5" 5" 2L5 X 32 X 5/16 LLBB -t = ³/8" Maximum service load that can be applied without exceeding the allowable capacity on yielding on gross area of the tension member (double angle). Maximum service load that can be applied without exceeding the allowable fracture on the net area of the tension member (double angle). Maximum service load that can be applied without exceeding the allowable block shear strength. Considering the weld metal and base metal strength, calculate the maximum service load that can be applied.
