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.
Considering the following steel connection. The plates in Pink are 9mm steel plates. The middle plate (Yellow) is 18mm thick. The width of the plate is 100mm. The maximum allowable tension stresses on any of the plates is 100Mpa in Gross Area Yielding and 150 Mpa for Net Area or Tension Rupture. The bolts used are 8mm in diameter, the holes are 10mm in diameter, no need to add 1.6mm. The bolts allow a maximum of 280 Mpa of shear. Determine the maximum allowable "P" of the connection in kN.
1.A tension member is 25 mm thick plate as shown. The bolts are 20 mm. diameter high-strength bolts. The steel is A36. Compute the following: 130 mm 25 mm 0 0 a) The design strength for LFRD. b) The allowable strength for ASD. 25 mm CIVIL ENGINEERING STEEL DESIGN
