Question
obler In Fig. 2, the double angle 2L4x3x3/8 of A36 is subject to tensile load, among which dead load T 100 kips and live load TL- 25 kips. The bolt diameter is 7/8 in. in standard hole. The strength of A36 steel is Fy-36 ksi and Fu-58 ksi. 3" 3/4.. 24g 2.48 (One angle) 2L4x3x3/8 X = 0.782" Fig.2 CIV 360 Steel Structure Design - Mid Term Exam Student Name: Enrollment Number Date: Grade: Problem 3: What is the diameter that is used to calculate the net area of the double angle for determine its capacity?

Explanation / Answer
Gross Area of one angle (Ag') = 2.48 in2
Total gross area (Ag) = 2 x 2.48 = 4.96 in2
Bolt diameter (db) = 7/8 in
Nominal hole diameter (dh) = 7/8 + 1/16 = 15/16 in (Refer AISC LRFD section J3 2)
Hole diameter for calculating net area = 15/16 + 1/16 = 1 in (Refer AISC LRFD section B4 3b)
Net section area (An) = 4.96 - 2 x 3/8 x 1 = 4.21 in2
