Question

A double channel shape is used as a tension member. 
The channels are bolted to a gusset plate with 22mm 
diameter bolts.
Fy-channel = 345 MPa, Fu-channel = 450 MPa
Fy-plate = 248 MPa, Fu-plate = 400 MPa
Achannel = 3555 mm^2, tw = 12.18 mm,
Shear lag factor = 0.90
A. Determine the ultimate tensile strength of the tension 
member based on its gross area.
B. Determine the allowable tensile strength of the 
tension member based on its gross area.
C. Determine the ultimate tensile strength of the tension 
member based on its net area.
D. Determine the allowable tensile strength of the 
tension member based on its net area
