-
Double angle sections on opposite sides of a gusset plate provide better symmetry, load distribution, and stability under tension.
-
They reduce eccentricity and bending effects compared to single angles.
-
Bolted or welded single angles and channel sections are less efficient due to eccentricity and potential twisting.
-
Double angles connected back-to-back with a gusset plate are commonly used as tension members in trusses and bracing.
Additional Information
-
Tension members are structural elements designed to carry axial tensile forces.
-
Important considerations include cross-sectional area, connection type, and load transfer efficiency.
-
IS 800 provides guidelines on design and selection of tension members in steel structures.
