Formulas: Tensile Strength

Formula 1

\begin{array}{c} P_{n}=F_{u}\left(2 t b_{e}\right) \\ \phi_{t}=0.75 \text { (LRFD) } \\ \Omega_{t}=2.00 \text { (ASD } \end{array}

\begin{aligned} P_{n} & =0.6 C_{r} F_{u} A_{s f} \\ \phi_{s f} & =0.75 \text { (LRFD) } \\ \Omega_{s f} & =2.00 \text { (ASD } \end{aligned}

where

$A_{sf} = 2t(a+d/2)$

= area on the shear failure path, $\text{in.}^2 \,(\text{mm}^2)$

A_{sf} = 2t(a+d/2)

= 1.0 when $d_{h}-d \leq{ }^{1} / 32$ in.

d_{h}-d \leq{ }^{1} / 32

$b_{e}=2 t+0.63$ , in.

b_{e}=2 t+0.63
