    Statics Brainfart

    Thanks everyone for the responses! I apoligize for the "simplicity" of some of my questions (primarily FS) but I was having trouble digesting the information. As I'm sure you can tell, I'm a recent graduate. The current circulum at my school only taught strength design. Therfore...

    Statics Brainfart

    NEVERMIND. I think I got the statics figured out (finally). For the two bolt procedure I'm just going to use what Ron and AJUK suggested (if the second bolt is in the tension zone). I have three more questions: 1) I'm adding the factor of safety at the end and this is really giving me large...

    Shelf Angle Eccentricity

    1) When suuporting a beam on a shelf angle (seated connection) how do you guys figure the eccentricity of the load on the shelf angle? 2) When the loading capacity of the anchors won't allow a seated connection ONLY, what are some common ways to increase the capacity?? How much load goes to...
