Load taken by Studs Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Load taken by Studs?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
FStud=(π4)(ds2(nft))
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
FStud=(π4)(15mm2(355N/mm²))
Next Step Substitute values of Constants
FStud=(3.14164)(15mm2(355N/mm²))
Next Step Convert Units
FStud=(3.14164)(0.015m2(35.5E+7Pa))
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
FStud=(3.14164)(0.0152(35.5E+7))
Next Step Evaluate
FStud=29157.9068161303N
LAST Step Rounding Answer
FStud=29157.9068N
