1. The tension member is a C8x11.5. It is connected to a 12-inch- thick gusset plate with 58- inch-diameter, Group A bolts. Both the tension member and the gusset plate are of A36 steel. What is the total service load that can be supported, based on bolt shear and bearing/tear out, if the ratio of live load to dead load is 1.6? The bolt threads are not in the plane of shear.
