  2. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

    When a shear load is applied, the connected parts move and the bolt shank makes contact with the hole walls, which transfers the load from the parts to the bolt. This causes a shear stress in the bolt at the junction of the connected parts, which it resists through its shear strength. As bearing type joints rely on this direct contact, they are ...

  3. Shear strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_strength

    In engineering, shear strength is the strength of a material or component against the type of yield or structural failure when the material or component fails in shear. A shear load is a force that tends to produce a sliding failure on a material along a plane that is parallel to the direction of the force. When a paper is cut with scissors ...

  4. Slip-critical joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip-critical_joint

    Shear (and tension) loads can be transferred between two structural elements by either a bearing-type connection or a slip-critical connection. In a slip-critical connection, loads are transferred from one element to another through friction forces developed between the faying surfaces of the connection. These friction forces are generated by ...

  5. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

    Strength depends upon material properties. The strength of a material depends on its capacity to withstand axial stress, shear stress, bending, and torsion.The strength of a material is measured in force per unit area (newtons per square millimetre or N/mm², or the equivalent megapascals or MPa in the SI system and often pounds per square inch psi in the United States Customary Units system).

  6. Shear force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_force

    A bolt with property class 12.9 has a tensile strength of 1200 MPa (1 MPa = 1 N/mm 2) or 1.2 kN/mm 2 and the yield strength is 0.90 times tensile strength, 1080 MPa in this case. A bolt with property class 4.6 has a tensile strength of 400 MPa (1 MPa = 1 N/mm 2) or 0.4 kN/mm 2 and yield strength is 0.60 times tensile strength, 240 MPa in this case.

  7. Anchor bolt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchor_bolt

    Anchor bolts transfer different types of load: tension forces and shear forces. [3] A connection between structural elements can be represented by steel columns attached to a reinforced concrete foundation. [4] A common case of a non-structural element attached to a structural one is the connection between a facade system and a reinforced ...

  8. Truss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truss

    The truss is rested on the notches and bolted into place. A special plate/bracket may be added to increase connection load transfer capabilities. With mechanically-laminated posts, the truss may rest on a shortened outer-ply or on a shortened inner-ply. The later scenario places the bolts in double shear and is a very effective connection.

  9. Bolt (fastener) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolt_(fastener)

    The American Institute of Steel Construction 13th Edition Steel Design Manual section 16.1 chapter J-3 specifies the requirements for bolted structural connections. [9] Structural bolts replaced rivets due to the decreasing cost and increasing strength of structural bolts in the 20th century.
