Where,
fub = ultimate tensile stress of the bolt
fyb = yield stress of the bolt
An = net tensile stress area. For bolts where the
tensile stress area is not defined, An shall be
taken as the area at the root of the threads
Asb = shank area of the bolt
DESIGN OF BOLTED SHEAR
CONNECTIONS
From Eq. 1, if there are n interfaces, we have:
Where
Shear per bolt = contribution of one bolt to the total
shear strength of the joint
Slip factor = coefficient of friction = 0.45
T = proof load = maximum permissible load in the bolt,
as given in table 1
