Pretension needed to prevent separation
Pretension needed to prevent separation
(OP)
Could anyone recommend a reliable resource/text book/software package that would allow me to analyze a bolted joint to determine the amount of pretension required to prevent separation for a given load?

I use most of the times:FED-STD-H28/2B (1994)
"Federal Standard
Screw-thread standards for Federal Services
Section 2"
Appendix B is a Design method of Unified Screw Threads.

You could also try Mike Niu's Airframe Stress Analysis and Sizing
Or the Fokker Stress Handbook TH3.561 might be used (proprietary document).

As far as books go, here are the best ones:
Handbook of Bolts and Bolted Joints edited by Bickford and Nassar
An Introduction to the Design and Behavior of Bolted Joints by Bickford
Both books are published by Dekker/Taylor and Francis:
