Slip Critical Connections AISC 14th edition

[ENGINEER92]

For slip critical connection there is a ns value.

ns=number of slip planes required to permit the connection to slip

Can anyone provide me with an example where there would be TWO slip planes required to permit the connection to slip?

3 ply connection = 2 slip planes

...a gusset plate with a diagonal bracing angle on each face?

Thank you both for responding. So if the bolt is in double shear then it has two slip planes?
