bolt head markings ?
bolt head markings ?
(OP)
The flanges on the tower sections in a large horizontal axis wind turbine are joined by a hundred or so large bolts.
The bolt heads are all marked with three things:-
a)makers names (Nedloy and Friedberg)
b) the nos. 10.9
c) and the letters HV
I believe '10.9' is basically the strength but can anyone explain this more acccurately please...
Also, what does the 'HV' mean ?
Any comments would be appreciated.

You describe the how the code is used to determine the "nominal" stress values, but the specification minimum values can be different. boo1 shows the correct values (according to ISO 898-1): 940 MPa minimum yield, 1040 MPa minimum tensile.
