This is tension failure through a group of bolt holes at a free edge.<br />

This consists of tension failure at the row of bolt holes accompanied<br />

by shear failure along a line from the end bolts to the free edge.<br />

The tension capacity is given by the following expression:<br />

P = 206 ( . p A )+ ( n-1) ( p-D ) t p<br />

t y v h y<br />

where Av is the shear area and is given by 09 . t e<br />

p is the bolt pitch<br />

t is the web thickness<br />

Therefore the local tension capacity of the web is adequate.<br />

Bearing<br />

The basic requirement is that the bearing capacity of the beam web<br />

must be greater than the tie force.<br />

bearing capacity of the beam web ≥ tie force<br />

For a single line of bolts the bearing capacity of the beam web is<br />

given by the smaller of the following expressions:<br />
