thread177-33175: Calculation of Tensile Stress Area for Fasteners?
The referenced thread was an excellent discussion on the formulas regarding effective tensile area of a screw. In the 29th edition of the Machinery's Handbook, the selection of the two equations to compute At was changed from 100ksi to 180ksi. Does anyone have any background on that change? Typo?
