TENSION
MEMBERS
A single angle tension member is to support a total tensile load of
312 kN. The member has a length of 2.7 m and is to be connected to
one leg only with a 22 mm bolt at least three in a line. Assume that
only one bolt is to be located at any one cross section. Use reduction
factor of U = 0.85. Assume diameter of hole = 25 mm. Design an
angular section to carry the tensile load.

A tension member has a span of 9 m and carries a tensile load of 981
kN. The member is to have two lines of rivets in each flange for 20
mm rivets with standard diameter of 21 mm of dimension with at
least 3 rivets in a line. Use A 36 W section. Neglect the weight of the
member. Consider W 250 x 49; W 250 x 39; W250 x 45
