Peery has an easy explanation of a bolted fitting example Fig 12.22 attached. The question comes up as to how is this handled if the fitting is attached to 2 parts as in a gusset. Are the loads on either of the parts the same as calculated or are these loads handled differently or separately. I have highlighted perhaps relevant sentence in PDF but not sure how that would effect the loads on the sub structure.
