75 d = 525 mm
L = 600 mm

Step 1:
∑ V = 0;

(0.5 x Pmax x B x y ) – pt – 692 x103 = 0

Step 2:
∑ M = 0; (taking moment about neutral axis of column)

(pt x f ) + (pt+pc)(L/2-y/3) – 120 x 106 = 0

Here unknowns are Pmax , pt , y.

By solving this we will get a cubic equation,

Y3 + 3 (e – L/2)Y2 + 6 n As(f + e ) Y/B - 6 n/B As(f + e ) (L/2+ f) = 0(Refer

Substituting the values in the above equation ,

Y3 - 381Y2 + 5.6 x 10 4Y - 29.5 x 106 =0

Y = 417 mm

Sub ‘Y’ in ∑ M = 0,

pt x 225 + (pt +692 x 103) (300 -139) – 120 x 106 =0

pt = 23 kN

Sub ‘pt’ in ∑ V = 0,

0.5 x Pmax x 600 x 417 – 23 x 103 - 692 x 103 =0

Pmax = 5.7 N/mm2

Tensile strength of bolt , Tnb = 0.9 x Anb x fub

Let us provide 20 mm dia bolts of 4.6 grade ,

Tensile strength of the bolt Tdb = Tnb/ γ mb
