Eccentric Load Acting
Perpendicular to the Axis of Bolts
For supporting the travelling crane in a workshop, the brackets are fixed on steel columns
as shown in Fig.. The maximum load that comes on the bracket is 12 kN acting vertically at
a distance of 400 mm from the face of the column. The vertical face of the bracket is
secured to a column by four bolts, in two rows (two in each row) at a distance of 50 mm
from the lower edge of the bracket. Determine the size of the bolts if the permissible value
of the tensile stress for the bolt material is 84 MPa. Also find the cross-section of the arm of
the bracket which is rectangular.

Eccentric Load Acting in the Plane
Containing the Bolts
Figure shows a solid forged bracket to carry a vertical load of 13.5 kN applied through
the centre of hole. The square flange is secured to the flat side of a vertical stanchion
through four bolts. Calculate suitable diameter D and d for the arms of the bracket, if
the permissible stresses are 110 MPa in tension and 65 MPa in shear. Estimate also the
tensile load on each top bolt and the maximum shearing force on each bolt.
