The connection shown in the figure uses 20 mm diameter bolts with threads in the shear plane to connect an ISF 120 × 10 mm with a gusset plate. The net area of the bolt and the ultimate strength of the bolt is 250 mm2 and 500 Mpa respectively. Fe 410 grade of steel is used and permitting slip, find the strength of the connection.
