  2. 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 ...

  3. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

    The preload target can be achieved by a variety of methods: applying a measured torque to the bolt, measuring bolt extension, heating to expand the bolt then turning the nut down, torquing the bolt to the yield point, testing ultrasonically, or by applying a certain number of degrees of relative rotation of the threaded components. Each method ...

  4. 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).

  5. Junker test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junker_test

    A Junker test is a mechanical test to determine the point at which a bolted joint loses its preload when subjected to shear loading caused by transverse vibration. Design engineers apply the Junker test to determine the point at which fastener securing elements – such as lock nuts , wedges and lock washers – fail when subjected to vibration .

  7. Shear force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_force

    The relevant information is the area of the material being sheared, i.e. the area across which the shearing action takes place, and the shear strength of the material. A round bar of steel is used as an example. The shear strength is calculated from the tensile strength using a factor which relates the two strengths.

  8. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  9. Direct shear test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_shear_test

    A direct shear test machine is required to perform the test. The test using the direct shear machine determines the consolidated drained shear strength of a soil material in direct shear. [4] The advantages of the direct shear test [5] over other shear tests are the simplicity of setup and equipment used, and the ability to test under differing ...
