$Y(30$ points$)$ The tension member shown is a PL $\frac{1}{2}5\frac{1}{2}$ of $A36$ steel. It is connected to a $\frac{3}{8^{\text{'}\text{'}}}$ thick gusset plate $($also $A36$ steel$)$ with $\frac{3}{4}$ in diameter Group A bolts.

a$.$ Check all spacing and edge$-$distance requirements

b$.$ Compute the strength of the section as per bolt shear.

c$.$ Compute the nominal strength in bearing $($check bearing and tearing as per AISC section J$.3-$ part $10)$

d$.$ State which limit state determines the strength of the connection.
