Bottom chord of truss is composed of two angle bars each having a dimension of 185 mm x 146 mm x 8.7 mm. Between them is a gusset plate, 9.5mm thick. At each end of joints, four 19mm-dia. bolts are fastened along the gage line, having an edge distance of 44 mm and 59mm pitch.

Five M20 8.8/ bolts are used in the connection between a beam and a column. Both sides of the cleat plate are welded to column using fillet weld (Manual metal arc AS4855 B-E43XX) with size of 5 mm. The design force transferred from beam to column is 300 kN. The cleat plate has thickness of 12 mm, fy = 300 MPa, and fü = 360 MPa. Determine the unit stress sustained by the weld
