Area for reduced tension capacity 4.6.3.1<br />

a1 = 120 ¥ 10 = 1200 mm 2<br />

Gross area Ag = 1910 mm 2<br />

a2 = Ag - a1 = 1910 - 1200 = 710 mm 2<br />

Tension capacity Pt = py(Ag - 0.3a2) 4.6.3.1<br />

Pt = 355( 1900 - 0. 3 ¥ 710) = 598885 N ª 599 kN > 523 kN \ OK<br />

\ Use 125 ¥ 75 ¥ 10 <strong>Steel</strong> Grade S355<br />

b) Bolted connections<br />

Area for reduced tension capacity 4.6.3.1<br />

a1 = 120 ¥ 10 = 1200 mm 2<br />

Effective net area Ae = sum of effective net areas ae<br />

Here, there is only one element, with net effective area<br />

ae = Kean<br />

For steel grade S355, Ke = 1.1.<br />

an = Gross area - bolt hole = 2160 - 24 ¥ 10 = 1920 mm 2<br />

4.6.1<br />

3.4.3<br />

ae = 1.1 ¥ 1920 = 2112 mm 2 (Check that ae £ ag) 3.4.3<br />

Hence Ae = 2112 mm 2<br />

a2 = Ag - a1 = 2160 - 1200 = 960 mm 2<br />

Tension capacity Pt = py(Ae - 0.5a2) 4.6.3.1<br />

Pt = 355( 2112 - 0. 5 ¥ 960) = 579360 N ª 579 kN > 523 kN \ OK<br />

\ Use 150 ¥ 75 ¥ 10 <strong>Steel</strong> Grade S355
