Connection Design and Bolt Checks

This document summarizes the design checks performed for a connection between structural members using 4 bolts that are 24mm in diameter. It checks the connection for: 1) Shear capacity of the bolts, which is sufficient at 22.62 kN compared to the bolt capacity of 132.4 kN. 2) Bearing capacity of the bolts on the plate, which is sufficient at 22.62 kN compared to the bolt capacity of 165.6 kN. 3) Block shear capacity of the 16mm thick plate, which is sufficient at 22.62 kN compared to the plate capacity of 878.1 kN. 4) Flexure in the plate is sufficient, with
