Working on checking a bolted connection and need get some ideas on how to check these C shapes (C10x15.3) that are connecting two other members together. The load is being transferred from the web to the flange, and I'm unsure of how to calculate the capacity for these C shapes which are essentially acting as L shapes (bolt spacing/working area was such that L shapes could not be used). Let me know if you have ideas, or if you'd like further clarification. Thanks in advance.
