Tension Yielding of the Brace:

Rn/Ω = Capacity from 'Limit State of Tension Yielding of Brace'

= kips > kips (OK)

Tension Rupture of the Brace:

Rn/Ω = Capacity from 'Limit State of Tension Rupture of Brace'

where:L = in (Length of Weld in HSS)

B = in (Width of HSS Section)

H = in (Height of HSS Section)

x = (B² + 2 * B * H) / (4 * (B + H))= in

U = 1 - (x / L)=

An = Ag - 2 * (tp + 0.1250) * thss

= in²

Ae = U * An= in²

Rn/Ω = kips > kips (OK)
