| Description | It is shown that the mechanism of bolt loading for preloaded fasteners can be effectively portrayed through simple spring models and some algebraic manipulations. Understanding schematically what is involved in such joints provides insight into the distribution of loads. The developed equations confirm that for both symmetric and nonsymmetric joints the loading plane factor and the stiffness factor directly affect the load seen in preloaded fasteners. The manner in which an external loading is transferred through the joint can be explained as energy dissipated in the various springs of both the abutment and the bolt itself. |
