(d)  Replace he six bolts with the with weld geometry suitable to sustain the applied load.

Please solve it as soon as possible.

Q3: The figure shows a welded fitting which has been tentatively designed to be bolted to a channel so as to transfer the 2500-lbf load into the channel. The 6 holes for in-11 NC bolts channel is made of hot-rolled lowcarbon --in steel having a minimum yield strength of 46 kpsi; the two fitting plates are of hot- rolled stock having a minimum S, of 45.5 kpsi. The fitting is to be bolted using six SAE grade 2 shoulder bolts. Determine the strength of the design by computing the factor of safety for all possible modes F= 2500 Ibf 4 in lin in +5 in 8 in [ 11.5 -8 in- of failure. Replace he six bolts with the with weld geometry suitable to sustain the applied load. (CLO-1) 25 marks
