ABEF For This Plate - Two ABCD Is A Shorter Route,: Solution. The Critical Section Could Possibly Be ABCD, ABCEF, or ABEF

The document provides three examples of calculating the critical net area of steel plates with bolt holes. In the first example, it determines the critical net area is 2617.2 mm^2 for a plate with multiple bolt holes by calculating the gross area and subtracting the total area of holes. The second example calculates the required pitch between two lines of bolt holes as 64.81mm to achieve a net area equal to the gross area minus one bolt hole. The third example calculates the net areas of different sections of a plate with various bolt hole configurations, finding the largest net area is 2663.6 mm^2.

Example 3-2
Determine the critical net area of the 1/2-in-thick plate shown
in Fig. 3.5, using the
AISC Specification (Section B4.3b). The holes are punched for
3/4-in bolts.

Solution. The critical section could possibly be ABCD, ABCEF, or ABEF.

The reader should note that it is a waste of time to check path
ABEF for this plate.Two
holes need to be subtracted for routes ABCD and ABEF. As
ABCD is a shorter route,
it obviously controls over ABEF.

Example 3-3
For the two lines of bolt holes shown in Fig. 3.6, determine the pitch
that will give a net
area DEFG equal to the one along ABC. The problem may also be stated
as follows:
