Question: A 5 . 1 2 5 x 1 5 DF axial combination 5 glulam is used as the tension member in a large roof truss.

A 5.125 x 15 DF axial combination 5 glulam is used as the tension member in a large roof truss. A single row of 1-in diameter bolts occurs at the net section of the member. Loads are a combination of dead and snow (ASD: D + S; LRFD: 1.2D +1.6S). Joints are assumed to be pin connected. MC =10%. Ct =1.0.Find: a: The maximum axial tension load using ASD. b: Repeat part a except that the MC =18% c: The factored axial tension capacity using LRFD. d: Repeat part c except that the MC =18%
