1.

Design a welded connection to connect two angles ISA 75 x 75 x 8mm on either side of a
10mm thick gusset plate to transfer a factored pull of 250 kN. Assume shop welding.
Provide welds on
I) All the three sides
II) Only on two opposite sides

2. Determine the maximum load that could be resisted by the bracket shown in
figure-3 assuming the plate thickness does not affect the result and if 8mm shop
fillet are used.

3. A bracket plate is welded to the flange of a column ISHB200 as shown in figure-

4. Calculate the size of the weld required to support a factored load of 110kN.
