A tension member splice is made with 1/4-inch E70 fillet welds as shown in Figure P7.11-4. Each side of the splice is welded as shown. The inner member is a PL1/2×6, and each outer member is a PL 5/16×3. All steel is A36. Determine the maximum service load, P, that can be applied if the live load to dead load ratio is 1:1. a. Use LRFD. b. Use ASD. FIGURE P7.11-4
