Design of bolted joint :-

CASE I: Load acts perpendicular to bolt axis:

enter image description here

(1) Due to the loading as shown in the fig., bolts are subjected to direct shear (primary effect).

(2) Bolts are also subjected to tensile stress due to turning moment about tilting edge (secondary effect).

  • Design Procedure:

Let, n = no. of bolts.

(I) Primary effect:

(a) Shear force per bolt, $F_{s}$

$F_{s}$ = $\frac{P}{n}$

$\therefore$ $\tau$ = $\frac{F_{s}}{A}$; (A = core area)

(II) Secondary effect:

$\;\;\;$ (a) Tensile force per unit length from tilting edge --

$F = \frac{P . e}{l_{1}^2 + l_{2}^2 + l_{3}^2 + l_{4}^2}$

$\;\;\;$ (b) Maximum tensile force --

$F_{tmax} = F_{3} = F_{4} = F . l_{3} = F . l_{4}$

$\;\;\;$ (c) $\sigma_{t}$ = $\frac{F_{tmax}}{A}$

$\;\;\;$ (d) Maximum tensile stress theory --

$\sigma_{tmax}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$[$\sigma_{t}$ + $\sqrt{\sigma_{t}^2 + 4\;\tau^2}$]

$\;\;\;$ (e) Maximum shear stress theory --

$\tau_{tmax}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$[$\sqrt{\sigma_{t}^2 + 4\;\tau^2}$]


Q.1 A bracket is fixed to a steel column as shown in fig. A vertical load of $12\ kN$ is acting on the bracket. The bracket is fixed by 5 bolts (3 in top row and 2 in bottom row).

Determine 1) size of bolt. 2) size of c/s area of bracket which is rectangular.

Assume allowable stresses in tension and shear for bolt and bracket material to be $85\ N/mm^2$ and $52\ N/mm^2$ respectively.

Soln. Given: $n = 5$

$P = 12\ kN$

$\sigma_{tmax} = 85\ N/mm^2$

$\tau_{tmax} = 52\ N/mm^2$

Soln: (I) Primary effect

(a) $F_{s} = \frac{P}{h} = \frac{12\times 10^{3}}{5} = 2.4 \times 10^3 N$

$\therefore$ $\tau$ = $\frac{F_{s}}{A}$ = $\frac{2.4 \times 10^3}{A}$

(II) Secondary effect

(a) $F = \frac{P . e}{l_{1}^2 + l_{2}^2 + l_{3}^2 + l_{4}^2 + l_{5}^2 }$

$\therefore F = \frac{12 \times 10^3 \times 400}{50^2 + 50^2 + 400^2 + 400^2 + 400^2 }$

$\therefore F = 9.8969\ N/mm$

(b) $F_{tmax} = F_{3} = F_{4} = F_{5} = F . l_{3} = F . l_{4} = F . l_{5}$

$= 9.8969 \times 400$

$= 3.9588 \times 10^3\ N$

(c) $\sigma_{t}$ = $\frac{F_{tmax}}{A}$ = $\frac{3.9588 \times 10^3}{A}$

(d) Max tensile stress theory --

$\sigma_{tmax}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$[$\sigma_{t}$ + $\sqrt{\sigma_{t}^2 + 4\;\tau^2}$]

$\therefore 85 = \frac{1}{2}[\frac{3.9588 \times 10^3}{A} + \sqrt{(\frac{3.9588 \times 10^3}{A}) + 4(\frac{2.4 \times 10^3}{A})^2}]$

$\therefore A = 59.8865\ mm^2$

(e) Max. shear stress theory

$\tau_{tmax}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$[$\sqrt{\sigma_{t}^2 + 4\;\tau^2}$]

$52 = \frac{1}{2}$[$\sqrt{(\frac{3.9588 \times 10^3}{A})^2 + 4\;(\frac{2.4 \times 10^3}{A})^2}$]

$\therefore A = 59.826\ mm^2$

Select, $A = 59.8865\ mm^2$

$\therefore \frac{\pi}{4}d_{i}^2 = 59.8865$

$\therefore d_{i} = 8.7321\ mm$

From PSG 5.42, from coarse series,

select M12.

Design of bracket:-

$\sigma_{t}$ = $\frac{M}{I}$.Y = $\frac{M}{(\frac{I}{Y})}$ = $\frac{M}{Z}$

$Z = \frac{I}{Y}$ = [$\frac{\frac{t(300)^3}{12}}{\frac{300}{2}}$]

$\therefore z = 15000t$

$\therefore 85 = \frac{12 \times 10^3 \times 400}{15000t}$

$\therefore t = 3.7647\ mm \approx 4 mm.$


Q.2 Fig. shows pulley bracket supported to a vertical wall by four bolts to each at location A and B. The pull 'P' on each side of wire rope over the pulley is $22\ kN$. Determine the diameter of bolt if $\tau_{max}$ is $20\ MPa$. Select the bolt from the following table.

enter image description here

Soln: Given: $n = 4$

$P = 22\ kN$

$\tau_{tmax} = 30\ Mpa = 30\ N/mm^2$

Soln: (I) Primary effect

(a) Shear force per bolt,

$F_{s} = \frac{P}{h} = \frac{2 \times 22 \times 10^3}{4} = 11 \times 10^3$

$\therefore$ $\tau$ = $\frac{F_{s}}{A}$ = $\frac{11 \times 10^3}{A}$

(II) Secondary effect

(a) Tensile force per unit length from tilting edge,

$F = \frac{P . e}{l_{1}^2 + l_{2}^2 + l_{3}^2 + l_{4}^2}$ = $\frac{44 \times 10^3 \times 450}{75^2 + 75^2 + 525^2 + 525^2}$

$\therefore F = 35.2\ N/mm$

(b) Maximum tensile force,

$F_{tmax} = F_{3} = F_{4} = F . l_{3} = F . l_{4}$

$= 35.2 \times 525$

$= 18.48 \times 10^3\ N$

(c) $\sigma_{t}$ = $\frac{F_{tmax}}{A}$ = $\frac{18.48 \times 10^3}{A}$

(d) Max shear stress theory --

$\tau_{tmax}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$[$\sqrt{\sigma_{t}^2 + 4\;\tau^2}$]

$30 = \frac{1}{2}[\sqrt{(\frac{18.48 \times 10^3}{A})^2 + 4\;(\frac{11 \times 10^3}{A})^2}]$

$\therefore A = 478.8616\ mm^2$

From table, we select M30

$\therefore A = 561$

$\therefore \frac{\pi}{4}d_{c}^2 = 561$

$\therefore d_{c} = 25.7261\ mm$

CASE II: Load is in the plane of bolt system but away from C.G of bolt system, i.e, when load acts in the plane containing bolt

enter image description here

Due to this kind of loading

(1) Direct shear load or force will be produced in each bolt (primary).

(2) Shear load or force due to turning moment of external load will be produced (secondary shear)

(a) Primary shear force :

$F_{P} = \frac{P}{n}$

(II) Secondary effect :

(a) Shear force per unit length --

$F = \frac{P . e}{r_{1}^2 + r_{2}^2 + r_{3}^2 + r_{4}^2}$

(b) Secondary shear force = F$_{s}$ :

F$_{S_{1}}$ = F . r$_{1}$

F$_{S_{2}}$ = F . r$_{2}$

F$_{S_{3}}$ = F . r$_{3}$

F$_{S_{4}}$ = F . r$_{4}$

(c) F$_{R_{1}}$ = $\sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{1}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{1}} . cos\theta_{1}}$

F$_{R_{2}}$ = $\sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{2}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{2}} . cos\theta_{2}}$

F$_{R_{3}}$ = $\sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{3}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{3}} . cos\theta_{3}}$

F$_{R_{4}}$ = $\sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{4}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{4}} . cos\theta_{4}}$

From above eqns, we get F$_{R_{max}}$.

(d) $\tau_{max}$ = $\frac{F_{R_{max}}}{A}$

Q3] Find diameter of bolt for the configuration as shown in fig. Assume material for bolt -- Sy = $\sigma_{y}$ = 350MPa, FOS = 3.5

enter image description here

Soln. (I) Primary effect :

(a) Primary shear force --

$F_{P} = \frac{P}{n} = \frac{40 \times 10^3}{4} = 10 \times 10^3N$

(II) Secondary effect :

(a) Shear force per unit length --

$F = \frac{P . e}{r_{1}^2 + r_{2}^2 + r_{3}^2 + r_{4}^2}$

$\therefore F = \frac{40 \times 10^3 \times 300}{{4}{(75)^2}}$

$\therefore F = 533.3333\ N/mm$

(b) Secondary shear force :

$F_{S_{1}} = F . r_{1} = 533.3333 \times 75 = 40 \times 10^3\ N$

$F_{S_{2}} = F . r_{2} = 40 \times 10^3N$

$F_{S_{3}} = F . r_{3} = 40 \times 10^3N$

$F_{S_{4}} = F . r_{4} = 40 \times 10^3N$

(c) $F_{R_{1}} = \sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{1}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{1}} . cos\theta_{1}}$

$= \sqrt{(10^4)^2 + (40 \times 10^3)^2 + 2(10^4)(40 \times 10^3) . cos0}$

$= 50 \times 10^3\ N.$

$F_{R_{2}} = \sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{2}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{2}} . cos\theta_{2}}$

$= \sqrt{(10 \times 10^3)^2 + (40 \times 10^3)^2 + 2(10 \times 10^3)(40 \times 10^3) . cos90}$

$= 41.2311 \times 10^3\ N$.

$F_{R_{3}} = \sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{3}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{3}} . cos\theta_{3}}$

$= \sqrt{(10 \times 10^3)^2 + (40 \times 10^3)^2 + 2(10 \times 10^3)(40 \times 10^3) . cos180}$

$= 30 \times 10^3\ N$

$F_{R_{4}} = \sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{4}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{4}} . cos\theta_{4}}$

= $\sqrt{(10 \times 10^3)^2 + (40 \times 10^3)^2 + 2(10 \times 10^3)(40 \times 10^3) . cos90}$

$= 41.2311 \times 10^3N$.

$\therefore F_{R_{max}} = F_{R_{1}} = 50 \times 10^3\ N$.

(d) $\tau_{max}$ = $\frac{F_{R_{max}}}{A}$

$\tau_{max} = \frac{0.5\sigma_{y}}{FOS} = \frac{0.5 \times 350}{3.5} = 50$

$\therefore 50 = \frac{50 \times 10^3}{A}$

$\therefore A = 10^3\ mm^2$

$\therefore \frac{\pi}{4}d_{c}^2 = 10^3$

$\therefore d_{c} = 35.6825\ mm$

From PSG 5.42,

$d_{c} = 35.6825\ mm$ for bolt is not available, therefore using imperical relation,

$d_{c} = 0.84\ d$

$\therefore 35.6825 = 0.84\ d$

$\therefore d = 42.4792\ mm$

(II) Secondary effect --

(a) Shear force per unit length --

$F = \frac{P . e}{r_{1}^2 + r_{2}^2 + r_{3}^2}$

$\therefore F = \frac{5 \times 10^3 \times 305}{75^2 + 0^2 + 75^2}$

$\therefore F = 135.5556\ N/mm$

(b) Secondary shear force --

$F_{S_{1}} = F . r_{1} = 135.5556 \times 75 = 10.1667 \times 10^3N$

$F_{S_{2}} = F . r_{2} = 0\ N$

$F_{S_{3}} = F . r_{3} = 10.1667 \times 10^3\ N$

(c) $F_{R_{1}} = \sqrt{F_{P}^2 + F_{S_{1}}^2 + 2 F_{P} . F_{S_{1}} . cos\theta_{1}}$

$= \sqrt{(1.6667 \times 10^3)^2 + (10.1667 \times 10^3)^2 + 2(1.6667 \times 10^3)(10.1667 \times 10^3) . cos\theta_{1}}$

$= 11.8334 \times 10^3N$.

$\therefore F_{R_{max}} = 11.8334 \times 10^3\ N$.

(d) $\tau_{max}$ = $\frac{F_{R_{max}}}{A}$

$\therefore 63.3333 = \frac{11.8334 \times 10^3}{A}$

$\therefore A = 186.8433\ mm^2$

$\therefore \frac{\pi}{4}d_{c}^2 = 186.8433$

$\therefore d_{c} = 15.4239\ mm$.
