Steel structures miscellaneous

  1. The tension and shear force (both in kN) in each bolt of the joint, as shown below, respectively are
    1. 30.33 and 20.00
    2. 30.33 and 25.00
    3. 33.33 and 20.00
    4. 33.33 and 25.00
Correct Option: D


Horizontal component = Pu cos θ
Tension in each bolt,

Pu cos θ
6

=
250 × 4
= 33.3 kN
5 × 6

Shear in each bolt = Vertical component
=
3 × 250
= 25 kN
5 × 6
