For a bolted assembly with six bolts, the stiffness of each bolt is kb=Mlbf/in and the stiffness of the members is km=12Mlbf/in. An external load of 80 kips is applied to the entire joint. Assume the load is equally distributed to all the bolts. It has been determined to use 1/2 in- 13 UNC grade 8 bolts with rolled threads. Assume the bolts are preloaded to 75% of the proof load. Clearly state any assumptions. (a) Determine the yielding factor of safety,
(b) Determine the overload factor of safety,
(c) Determine the factor of safety baserd on joint seperation.

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA

external load applied (p) = 85 kips

bolt stiffness ( Kb ) = 3(10^6) Ibf / in

Member stiffness (Km) = 12(10^6) Ibf / in

Diameter of bolts ( d ) = 1/2 in - 13 UNC grade 8

Number of bolts = 6

assumptions

for unified screw threads UNC and UNF

tensile stress area ( A ) = 0.1419 in^2

SAE specifications for steel bolts for grade 8

we have

Minimum proff strength ( Sp) = 120 kpsi

Minimum tensile strength (St) = 150 Kpsi

Load Bolt (p) = external load / number of bolts = 85 / 6 = 14.17 kips

Given the following values

Fi = 75%* Sp*At = (0.75*120*0.1419 ) = 12.771 kip

Preload stress

αi = 0.75Sp = 0.75 * 120 = 90 kpsi

stiffness constant

C =  = = 0.2

A) yielding factor of safety

nP = =

nP = 77.028 / 15.605 = 4.94 ≈ 4.9

B) Determine the overload factor safety

= ( 120 * 0.1419) - 12.771 / 0.2 * 14.17

= 17.028 - 12.771 / 2.834

= 1.50
