Question: Use the following for problems [ 1 ] thru [ x ] . A 1 2 ' ' plate is welded to a 1 2

Use the following for problems [1] thru [x].
A 12'' plate is welded to a 12'' thick vertical member using an E6010 electrode as shown. Both members are made of AISI 1020 HR steel (FN=55ksi,Fty=30ksi,E=30Msi ).
[2] For the structural connection shown above, determine (a) the area of the weld, and (b) the centroid of weld relative to point A.
[3] For the structural connection shown above, determine the torsional constant J of the weld.
[4] If the structural connection shown above is subjected to a force P=20 kips as shown, determine the maximum shear stress at (a) the upper rightmost point of the weld pattern, (b) the upper leftmost point of the weld pattern, (c) the lower leftmost point of the weld pattern, and (d) the lower rightmost point of the weld pattern.
[5] Continuing the analysis of Problem [4], determine (a) the maximum stress in the weld pattern & its location, and (b) the minimum margin of safety of the weld pattern if Fsusu of the weld is 12 ksi .
[6] If the structural connection shown above is instead subjected to a force P=20 kips in the positive x-direction as shown, and Fsu of the weld is 12 ksi , determine the maximum shear stress at the maximum stress in the weld pattern & its location.
