What is block shear failure?(a) failure of fasteners occurs along path involving tension on one plane and shear on perpendicular plane along fasteners(b) failure of member occurs along path involving tension on one plane and shear on perpendicular plane along fasteners(c) failure of member occurs along path involving tension on one plane and shear on parallel plane along fasteners(d) failure of fasteners occurs along path involving tension on one plane and shear on parallel plane along fastenersThe question was asked in unit test.Question is from Modes of Failure, Slenderness Ratio and displacement topic in division Design of Tension Members of Design of Steel Structures

Answer» RIGHT choice is (b) FAILURE of member occurs along path involving tension on one PLANE and shear on perpendicular plane along fasteners

The explanation is: Failure of member occurs along path that involves (i) tension on one plane and (ii) shear on perpendicular plane along fasteners in block shear failure MODE.
