This connection will typically be in compression.
I'm looking at a 2-1/2" pin diameter. Thanks.
In the construction field, we use quite a few single pin connections for our temporary support structures. How should I design the gussets for this single pin load. I'm familiar with the Whitmore section but because I have a single pin transfering the load(compression) into the gusset I'm not...
