DESIGN CONDITIONS
Simplifying Assumptions:
- No torsion in welds
- Bolt material is covered by Appendix-2 calculations
- No out-of-plane effects such as buckling or dishing are accounted for here
Calculations:
Ap = 226.98 mm2 Single shear area of pin
M= 244724 Nmm Bending moment in tab
Weld Stress:
Sws = 14.24 N/mm2 Weld shear stress Weld shear stress is acceptable
Swb = 30.21 N/mm 2
Weld bending stress Weld bending stress is acceptable
Tab Stress:
Sts = 20.14 N/mm2 Tab shear stress at support Tab shear stress is acceptable
Stb = 60.43 N/mm2 Tab maximum bending stress Tab bending stress is acceptable
Stbe = 53.32 N/mm2 Tab bearing stress Tab bearing stress is acceptable
