Yield Stress of Tongue Plate Fy 325 MPa
Ultimate Strength Fu 470 MPa
Young's Modulus E 200000 MPa
Strength Ratio
1) Tensile Yielding at Whitmore Section (Eq J4-1)
Partial Safety Factor 1.67
Tensile Strength of gusset Rn/ 374575.1 N 0.585
where Rn=FyxAg
As Tensile Strength is greater than required strength, Hence OK

2)Buckling Strength of Gusset (J4.4/E3)

Partial Safety Factor c 1.67
Area of Gusset Plate Aw/Ag 1924.74 mm2
slenderness ratio Kl1/r 38.49002
As KL/r is greater than 25, use AISC Sec E3

WHEN KL/r > 25 using Sec E3

Fe = 2 x E / (KL/r)2 1331.046 MPa
Fcr 293.4268 MPa
where Fcr = (0.658 ^(Fy/Fe)) x Fy when Fe>0.44Fy or Fcr = 0.877xFe when Fe<0.44Fy
Pn/ = Fcr x Ag/ Pn/ 338185.8 N
Strength Ratio 0.648
As Buckling Strength is greater than the required Strength, Hence OK

WHEN KL/r < 25 using Sec J4.4

Pn/ = Fy x Ag/ Pn/ N/A N
