A single plate tension member (200 mm x 10 mm) is made of 300W Steel. The member is connected through welded connection as shown. Calculate the total effective net area for shear lag Ane of the tension member. Gusset Plate 300 mm -Weld Tension Member Tr

See the image. Two steel plates are welded together. The thickness of the bottom plate is 10mm and the thickness of the top plate is 8mm. What is the maximum and minimum sizes of the weld.

Using SMAW process, E70 electrodes and an A572 steel. Determine thelength of the side fillet welds for the full capacity the 125x100x10mm angle tensionmember as shown below. Assume that the member is subjected to repeatedstress variations making any connection eccentricity undesirable. Check theblock shear strength of the member. Assume that the WT chord has sufficientstrength to develop the weld strengths and the thickness of its web is 12mm. UseU = 0.87 for class use and LRFD Method only.

A tension member splice is made with 14-inch E70 fillet welds as shown in Figure 5. Each side of the splice is welded as shown. All steel is A36. Determine the maximum service load, P, that can be applied if the live load to dead load ratio is 1.5. Note: Assume that the base metal shear strength is adequate (check the yielding strength for the gross area, fracture strength for the effective net area, weld strength and block shear strength).
