Calculating Bolted Joint Stiffness
Calculating Bolted Joint Stiffness
(OP)
we are modelling some bolted joints using CBUSH elements in FEM. can anybody help what is the difference in using huth method and using AG/L to calculate shear stiffness. Thanks in Advance.

Best approach - fab a two row joint specimen, test it, measure displacement. Then correlate your FEM approach to the test.
