Design the beam splice shown in Figure. Use Fy = 50 ksi steel for the pair of splice plates and the W24 x 55 beam. The required shear strength of the beam ends is V, = 167 kips. Use l-in.-diameter A325X bolts in a bearing-type connection and ESO electrodes. Determine the required number of bolts, the weld size, and the size of each splice plate.
