2L5x3x1/2LLBB: #N/A #N/A #N/A

The document summarizes the sizing requirements for 8 bolts in a connection based on AISC specifications. It calculates the minimum spacing between bolts, edge distance, required shear and tension areas, and required radius of gyration. It also checks the bearing strength of the bolts against the total required strength of 76 kips.

PROJECT: Spreder Beam 12 T f/ Floating Hose

SUBJECT: Bolted connection SHEET 2 of 3

Number of bolts required = 4.78 bolts


Try = 8 bolts

Minimum spacing : the distance between centers of standard, oversized, or slotted holes, shall
not be less than 3d (from AISC J3.3).
s =3 d= 2.25 in
say, s = 3 in

Minimum edge distance : (from AISC table J3.4)


Le = 1.5 in

Ag req. ³ 2.34568 in2


U= 0.85 (from commentary to the AISC specification)
Ae req. ³ 1.74713 in2
An req. ³ 2.05544 in2

minimum radius of gyration:


r min = 1.532 in

TRY 2L5x3x1/2LLBB
bolts placed in the long leg at the usual gage distance (check LRFD page 10-10)
usual gage = 3 in
Ag = #N/A in2 > 2.35 in2 #N/A
r = #N/A in > 1.53 in #N/A
t = #N/A in
An = #N/A in2 > 2.05544 in2 #N/A
x = 0.736 in
U = 0.96495 < 0.9 use U = 0.9
Ae = #N/A in 2
> 1.74713 in 2
#N/A
Check Bearing strength:

for bearing strength computation use a hole diameter of h = 13/16 in


f Rn = f (1.2 Lc t Fu) if Lc < 2 d
f Rn = f (2.4 d t Fu) if Lc > 2 d

For the hole nearest the edge of the member :


Lc = 1.09 in
2d= 1.50 in f Rn = #N/A kips/bolt
For the other holes:
Lc = 2.19 in
2d= 1.50 in f Rn = #N/A kips/bolt
Total bearing strength of the connection :

f Rn = #N/A kips > 76 kips #N/A
