Sect. J4.] DESIGN RUPTURE STRENGTH 67In the foregoing,R n = nominal bearing strength of the connected material, kips (N)F u = specified minimum tensile strength of the connected material, ksi (MPa)L c = clear distance, in the direction of the force, between the edge of the hole andthe edge of the adjacent hole or edge of the material, in. (mm)d=nominal bolt diameter, in. (mm)t =thickness of connected material, in. (mm)For connections, the bearing resistance shall be taken as the sum of the bearingresistances of the individual bolts.11. Long GripsA307 bolts providing design strength, and for which the grip exceeds five diameters,shall have their number increased one percent for each additional 1 16-in.(2 mm) in the grip.J4. DESIGN RUPTURE STRENGTH1. Shear Rupture StrengthThe design strength for the limit state of rupture along a shear failure path in theaffected elements of connected members shall be taken as R nwhere = 0.75R n = 0.6F u A nv (J4-1)A nv = net area subject to shear, in. 2 (mm 2 )2. Tension Rupture StrengthThe design strength for the limit state of rupture along a tension path in the affectedelements of connected members shall be taken as R nwhere = 0.75R n = F u A nt (J4-2)A nt = net area subject to tension, in. 2 (mm 2 )3. Block Shear Rupture StrengthBlock shear is a limit state in which the resistance is determined by the sum of theshear strength on a failure path(s) and the tensile strength on a perpendicular segment.It shall be checked at beam end connections where the top flange is coped andin similar situations, such as tension members and gusset plates. When ultimaterupture strength on the net section is used to determine the resistance on one segment,yielding on the gross section shall be used on the perpendicular segment. Theblock shear rupture design strength, R n , shall be determined as follows:(a) When F u A nt 0.6F u A nv :R n = [0.6F y A gv + F u A nt ] [0.6F u A nv + F u A nt ](b) When F u A nt < 0.6F u A nv :<strong>LRFD</strong> Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, December 27, 1999AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF STEEL CONSTRUCTION(J4-3a)
