Question-03:  The steel tie bar shown in Figure 2 is to be designed to carry a tensile force of magnitude P = 30 kips when bolted between double brackets at A and B. the bar will be fabricated from 0.6inches thick plate. For the grade of steel to be used, the maximum allowable stresses are: Normal stress = σn = 25 ksi, Bearing stress = σb = 55 ksi and Shearing stress = τ = 5.4ksi. Solve for the values of (a) the diameter d of the bolt, (b) the dimension b at each end of the bar and (c) the dimension h of the bar.

Question-03: 
The steel tie bar shown in Figure 2 is to be designed to carry a tensile force of magnitude P = 30 kips when
bolted between double brackets at A and B. the bar will be fabricated from 0.6inches thick plate. For
the grade of steel to be used, the maximum allowable stresses are: Normal stress = σn = 25 ksi, Bearing
stress = σb = 55 ksi and Shearing stress = τ = 5.4ksi. Solve for the values of (a) the diameter d of the
bolt, (b) the dimension b at each end of the bar and (c) the dimension h of the bar.
