Question about bolt forces due to base moment
Question about bolt forces due to base moment
(OP)
Evaluating the bolt axial load due to a horizontal pin load causing a moment. I attached my napkin sketch. Is this a reasonable, conservative, approach to approximate?

It is not reasonable and overkilling. If we assume the bracket is rigid enough, the faying surface will transfer the compression stress and a NA will develop around 11 in. from the right first bolt row. In this case, the tension developing at the first bolt row should be in the range of T= 576000/14= 41000 lbs.

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Do you feel any better?
