In the design of tension members, the design strength due to yielding of gross section is given by _____________
Where
Ag = Gross area
fy = Yield stress
fu = Ultimate stress
The strength of the plate is the minimum of:
(a) Yielding of gross section (Tdg)
(b) Rupture of critical section (Tdn)
(c) The block shear strength (Tdb)
Fy = yield stress of materials
Ag = Gross area of cross-section
γmo = partial safety factor for failure intention by yielding
The minimum density (g/cc) of corrugated and semi-corrugated asbestos cement sheets considered acceptable for construction purposes by the Indian standard is:
