Metric Bolts - Fine Threads - Minimum Ultimate Tensile Loads Thread The design shear resistance of bolts F v,Rd as given in EN1993-1-8 Table 3.4 is only valid when the bolt is used in holes with nominal clearance not exceeding the values given in the standard EN 1090-2 'Requirements for the execution of steel structures', as specified in EN1993-1-8 §3.6.1(4).

A is the appropriate area for shear resistance. When the shear plane passes through the threaded part of the bolt A is equal to the tensile stress area of the bolt A s. When the shear plane passes through the unthreaded part of the bolt A is equal to the gross cross-sectional area of the bolt A g. For typical coarse pitch thread bolts the standard sizes are: M3, M3.5, M4, M5, M6, M7, M8, M10, M12, M14, M16, M18, M20, M22, M24, M27, M30, M33, M36, M39. d m is the mean of the across points and across flats dimensions of the bolt head or the nut, whichever is smaller. The nominal gross area A g corresponds to the cross-sectional area of the unthreaded part of the bolt: The second number corresponds to the ratio of yield strength to ultimate strength e.g. 60% for class 4.6 leading to a yield strength of 0.60 × 400 MPa = 240 MPa.

The design resistance of a group of fasteners may be taken as the sum of the design bearing resistances F b,Rd of the individual fasteners provided that the shear resistance F v,Rd of each individual fastener is greater than or equal to the design bearing resistance F b,Rd. Otherwise the design resistance of a group of fasteners should be taken as the number of fasteners multiplied by the smallest design resistance of any of the individual fasteners as specified in EN1993-1-8 § 3.7(1). For this case elastic linear distribution of internal forces should be used as specified in EN1993-1-8 §3.12. Metric Threads are measured in Millimetres (mm) units and were developed to simplify the imperial systems. Europe moved to this system but the Americans choose Imperial as their default. A coarse thread has less helical coils per mm and a fine one has more. Coarse is used for heavier loads and fine is used for lighter loads prone to vibrations. Ultimate Tensile and Proof loads for metric bolts according ISO 898-1 "Mechanical properties of fasteners made of carbon steel and alloy steel - Part 1: Bolts, screws and studs with specified property classes — Coarse thread and fine pitch thread". The yield strength f yb and the ultimate tensile strength f ub for bolt classes 4.6, 4.8, 5.6, 5.8, 6.8, 8.8, and 10.9 are given in EN1993-1-8 Table 3.1.

Combined shear and tension

The resulting hole diameter d 0 for each type of hole (normal, oversize, short slotted, long slotted) is determined by adding the nominal clearance given in EN 1090-2 Table 11 to the nominal diameter d of the bolt. class- stamp/meter/account (Including Royal Mail Signed For ® sent as 1st class) Online Postage, Articles for the Blind For full table with more Property Classes - rotate the screen!
