 3. A bolted connection between a vertical column anda diagonal brace

3. A bolted connection between a vertical column anda diagonal brace is shown in the figure below. The connection consists of three 5/8-in. bolts that jom two 14-in. end plates welded to the brace and a 5/8-in. gusset plate welded to the column. The compressive load P-carried by the brace equals 8.0 k. Determine the following quantities: (a) The average shear stress Tave in the bolts, and (b) the average bearing stress op between the gusset plate and the bolts. (Disregard friction between the plates.) Column - Brace End plates for brace Gusset plate
