Check the capacity of a 120 × 35 MGP12 tension member that is to be used as a 3 m long bottom chord in a girder truss in a restaurant in Jindabyne, NSW. It will be subjected to the following nominal (unfactored) tensile loads: Permanent actions Imposed actions - construction loads Snow actions (sub alpine) G = 4 kN Qconst = 2.5 kN S₂ = 20 kN W₁ = 5.1 kN Ws = 2.5 kN Ultimate wind actions (downwards) Wind serviceability (downwards) } 3m permanent estimated medium-term estimated medium-term estimated giving tension in the bottom chord The connection at each end will use 4 M12 bolts in rows of two bolts placed in 13 mm diameter holes.
