Design I 8-4 Joints: Fastener Stiffness

When a connection is desired that can be disassembled without destructive


methods and that is strong enough to resist external tensile loads, moment
loads, and shear loads, or a combination of these, then the simple bolted joint
using hardened steel washers is a good solution.
 Twisting the nut stretches the bolt to
produce the clamping force. This clamping
force is called the pretention or bolt
preload.
 This force exists in the connection after the
nut has been properly tightened.

Figure 8-13
A bolted connection loaded in tension by the forces P.
Note the use of two washers. Note how the threads
extend into the body of the connection. This is usual and
is desired. LG is the grip of the connection.

Figure 8-14 shows another


tension-loaded connection. This
joint uses cap screws threaded
into one of the members.

Hexagon-head caps crews are used to

Note the use of an O-ring seal. LG’ is
the effective length of the connection

Joints: Fastener Stiffness

 An alternative approach to this problem


(of not using a nut) would be to use studs.

 A stud is a rod threaded on both ends. The


stud is screwed into the lower member
first; then the top member is positioned
and fastened down with hardened washers
and nuts

 Studs are regarded as permanent, and so


the joint can be disassembled merely by
removing the nut and washer.

 Spring Rate : The ratio between the
force applied to the member and the
deflection produced by that force.

 The grip LG of a connection is the total


thickness of the clamped material.

 Total distance between the underside of


the nut to the bearing face of the bolt
head; includes washer, gasket thickness
etc.
The grip LG here is the sum
of the thicknesses of both
members and both washers.

 If one of the members is a soft gasket, its stiffness relative
to the other members is usually so small that for all
practical purposes the others can be neglected and only
gasket stiffness used.
 With no gasket, the stiffness of the members is difficult to
obtain, except by experimentation.
 Compression spreads out between the bolt head and the
nut and area is not uniform.

Joint pressure distribution theoretical models

 Ito used ultrasonic techniques to determine pressure distribution at


the member interface. Results show that pressure stays high out to
about 1.5 bolt radii.
 Ito suggested the use of Rotscher’s pressure cone method for stiffness
calculations with a variable cone angle. This method is quite
complicated.

 Bolt strength is specified by:

1. minimum proof strength Sp


2. or minimum proof load Fp,
3. and minimum tensile strength, Sut

 The proof load is the maximum load (force)


that a bolt can withstand without acquiring
a permanent set.
 The proof strength is the quotient of the
proof load and the tensile-stress area.
 The proof strength is about 90% of the 0.2%
offset yield strength.
