Bearing Angle Bolted into Concrete Connection Design
Bearing Angle Bolted into Concrete Connection Design
(OP)
Hi, i have a Precast stairs which is connected to a landing through Bearing Angle, now i need to make this connection fix so it will be able to take the moment at support for the worst case which is, if my other ends fails and my stair is Cantilever, now what i am looking for is, what should be the bolt tension and shear capacity that i suppose to be considering?? and also if anyone has done such calculation before, could you share it with me? as due to the fact that its cantilever therefore that moment at support is around 50kN-m which is quite big for such connections so i just wanted to be sure about what am doing,
Please suggest how to calculate tension and shear capacities.
Thanks alot in advance.

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

so if you have any calcs referecen u like to share, i will appreciate it alot.
Thanks alot.

Actually, start by investigating flexure on the horizontal angle leg. That will likely fail at any reasonable leg thickness and then you can move on to other concepts.

Why do you need to consider the case of "other end fails"?
Is the 'other-end' a bearing-seat that can be horizontally displaced due to seismic or other lateral loading?
