Bolt Shear SF - AISC360-2010

This document discusses the tensile and shear strength of bolts and threaded parts used in structural steel buildings. It provides equations to calculate the design tensile or shear strength based on limits of tension rupture and shear rupture. It also addresses calculating available tensile strength for bolts subjected to combined tension and shear loads using modified nominal tensile stress equations that account for shear stress effects. The strength is limited by the lesser of fastener shear strength or bearing strength at the bolt hole.

Sect. J3.] BOLTS AND THREADED PARTS 16.

1–125

6. Tensile and Shear Strength of Bolts and Threaded Parts


The design tensile or shear strength, φRn, and the allowable tensile or shear
strength, Rn /Ω, of a snug-tightened or pretensioned high-strength bolt or threaded
part shall be determined according to the limit states of tension rupture and shear
rupture as follows:
Rn = Fn Ab (J3-1)
φ = 0.75 (LRFD) Ω = 2.00 (ASD)
where
Ab = nominal unthreaded body area of bolt or threaded part, in.2 (mm2)
Fn = nominal tensile stress, Fnt, or shear stress, Fnv, from Table J3.2, ksi (MPa)
The required tensile strength shall include any tension resulting from prying action
produced by deformation of the connected parts.

User Note: The force that can be resisted by a snug-tightened or pretensioned


high-strength bolt or threaded part may be limited by the bearing strength at the
bolt hole per Section J3.10. The effective strength of an individual fastener may
be taken as the lesser of the fastener shear strength per Section J3.6 or the bear-
ing strength at the bolt hole per Section J3.10. The strength of the bolt group is
taken as the sum of the effective strengths of the individual fasteners.

7. Combined Tension and Shear in Bearing-Type Connections


The available tensile strength of a bolt subjected to combined tension and shear
shall be determined according to the limit states of tension and shear rupture as
follows:
Rn = F′nt Ab (J3-2)
φ = 0.75 (LRFD) Ω = 2.00 (ASD)
where
F′nt = nominal tensile stress modified to include the effects of shear stress,
ksi (MPa)

Fnt
F′nt = 1.3Fnt − frv ≤ Fnt (LRFD) (J3-3a)
φFnv

ΩFnt
F′nt = 1.3Fnt − frv ≤ Fnt (ASD) (J3-3b)
Fnv

Fnt = nominal tensile stress from Table J3.2, ksi (MPa)


Fnv = nominal shear stress from Table J3.2, ksi (MPa)
frv = required shear stress using LRFD or ASD load combinations, ksi (MPa)
The available shear stress of the fastener shall equal or exceed the required shear
stress, frv.
