= 0.20 for L h /t ≥ 170<br />
= use linear interpolation for 150 < L h /t < 170<br />
L h = vertical leg dimension of the angle<br />
T = design thickness<br />
For LRFD, the design moment capacity for uplift shall be determined as follows:<br />
M u = ΦM nu<br />
Φ = 0.80<br />
(Eq. B3.1.3-4)<br />
M ng = (2)(0.8564)(33,000) = 56,522 in-lb (for two angles)<br />
L h /t = 8.0/0.0566 = 141.34 ≤ 150, Therefore, R = 0.25<br />
M nu = 0.25(56,522) = 14,130 in-lb<br />
