AISC Design Example 1

The document summarizes the verification of the strength of two pin-connected tension members - a pin-connected plate and an eyebar tension member - by LRFD and ASD methods. For the pin-connected plate, the available bearing strength governs and satisfies both LRFD and ASD requirements. For the eyebar tension member, the available tensile yield strength at the eyebar body governs and satisfies LRFD and ASD, with a note to also check the pin for shear yielding or bearing strength.

Section D2

The eyebar tension member available strength is governed by the tension yield limit state. Note: The eyebar detailing limitations ensure that the tensile yielding limit state at the eyebar body will control the strength of the eyebar itself. The pin should also be checked for shear yielding, and if the material strength is lower than that of the eyebar, bearing.
