Question: The connection shown is bolted with an A 3 2 5 bolts with an allowable shearing stress of 2 0 7 MPa when threads are

The connection shown is bolted with an A325 bolts with an allowable shearing stress of 207MPa when threads are excluded from shear plane. A36 steel is used with Fy=248MPa,Fu=400MPa. Assume bolt hole diameter to be 2mm bigger than bolt diameter. Diameter of bolt is 20mm. Use bearing type connection.
Calculate the ff:
a. Tensile capacity of the connection if shearing stress governs
b. Tensile capacity of the connection if bearing stress governs.
c. Tensile capacity of the connection if tearing of plates governs
The connection shown is bolted with an A 3 2 5
