Question

The upper deck of a football stadium is supported
by braces, each of which transfers a load P = 160 kips to
the base of a column (see figure part a). A cap plate at
the bottom of the brace distributes the load P to four
flange plates (t f =1 in.) through a pin (d p = 2 in.) to
two gusset plates (tg =1.5 in.) (see figure parts b and c).

Determine the following quantities.
(a) The average shear stress τaver in the pin.
(b) The average bearing stress between the flange
plates and the pin (σbf ), and also between the
gusset plates and the pin (σbg ).
Disregard friction between the plates.
