Path D-G

This is  NOT A VALID PATH!  Note that not all the bolts are "left behind" when the main part of the member is pulled away.  Bolts A and K are in the "torn away" part and the rest are in the "left behind" part that is attached to the main plate.  Since the "torn away" part is also still attached to the main plate, the only way that this fracture can occur is if the main plate also fractures at the same path... not a possible or likely event!

 

The following figure illustrates the fracture area associated with this path.  Note that the area is quite large because it includes all the plates.  Since this area is so large compared to other paths that only include failure of a subset of plates, it will never control.
