Question: Find maximum load ( Q ) ( in tension as well as in compression ) that can be applied to the bracing member

Find maximum load \( Q \)(in tension as well as in compression) that can be applied to the bracing member shown below. Consider all failure modes of the bolts and welds. Steel is A36(Fy=36 ksi and \(\mathrm{Fu}=58\mathrm{ksi}\)). Bolts are \(3/4^{\prime \prime}\) dia A 490 N bolts. All fillet welds are on both sides, which are done using E70 electrodes, and have a size of \(3/16\) inches. Failure modes of the HSS and the gusset plate are not part of this problem.
