Design steps for Eccentric Bolted Connection
• Find strength of bolts (Bolt Value: BV)
• Direct force (F1)
• Torsional force (F2)
• Resultant force (R)
• If R < BV , Connection is stable & safe

R2 = 0.0676 x (P1)2 …. (Squaring both sides)
R = 0.26 x P1

Design steps for Eccentric Welded Connection
• Find x & yb, yt
• Ip = Ix + Iy
• Find rmax and cos θ
• Direct shear stress (q1) = P/(lw x tt)
• Torsional stress (q2) = P x e x rmax / (Ip)
• Resultant stress (q)
• Find size of weld
