Determine the capacity of the shear tab connection considering a) Bolt shear with eccentricity. b) Bolt bearing of web and plate c) Plate gross shear d) Plate net shear e) Block shear of plate (Note: Consider UBS=0.5) f) Plate bending on the net section g) Weld capacity h) Base metal check of plate. Assume the plate is A36 Steel. Make sure you consider eccentricity in the bolts. Use a 1 '2" edge distance for all edge distances (side edge distances missing from sketch). For bearing and tearout, based on the discussion we had in class, the bolt forces can be in several different directions using the instantaneous center of rotation. Therefore, you can even have an edge bolt with respect to the beam web since the direction of some bolt forces will be towards the column. The most conservative approach is to not figure out the exact direction of the bolt forces and assume that you have a spacing of 3 in. between bolts for the web and plate and an edge distance of 1.5 in. for the web and plate. Very conservative for web. Confirm that bolt bearing/tearout will not control over bolt shear (may need to use specs and not tables).
