The tensile stress area (At ) is obtained from standards
The tension capacity of the bolt is given by:
Pnom = 0.8ptAt Nominal
Pt = ptAt Exact
Where:
pt is the tension strength of the bolt.
The shear capacity of the bolt is given by
PS = ps As
where:
ps is the shear strength of the bolt
As is the shear area of the bolt.
In the table, As has been taken as equal to At .
The shear capacity given in the tables must be reduced for large packings, large grip lengths, kidney shaped slots or long joints when applicable.
