The document provides information to calculate the net area of a plate with dimensions of 7 inches by 4 inches by 5/8 inches thick. There are 3 bolt holes with a diameter of 0.75 inches. The document calculates the gross area of the plate, the area of each bolt hole, and applies stagger factors to account for the staggered bolt pattern. It then calculates the net area by subtracting the total bolt hole areas and adding the stagger factors.
