4-18. Determine the axial tension capacity or strength, Pn, of a 5" wide x 3/8" thick plate hanger considering only yielding and fracture failure modes (i.e., neglect block shear). Assume the plate is connected to the gusset plate at the ends with a single row of 7/8 inch diameter bolts. If the hanger in supports a service dead load of 12 kips, what is the service floor live load in psf that can be supported by the hanger if the hanger has a tributary floor area of 300 ft”. Assume the shear lag factor U = 1.0 and use ASTM A992 steel. —
