Connector Check PDF

This document provides details to check the connection between a mullion and an aluminum C-channel using four M10 stainless steel screws. It lists the design strength, factored loads from structural analysis, and calculates the maximum tensile, horizontal shear, and vertical shear forces per bolt. It then checks the shear and tensile capacities of the stainless steel bolts to verify they are sufficient based on the bolt diameter, number of bolts, and material properties. The calculation shows the connection is safe based on the interaction equation.
