Clevis "Max D"
Clevis "Max D"
(OP)
AISC 13th Table 15-3
If I require a 1" diameter tension rod, it appears obvious that I require a #3 Clevis. However, I'm concerned that a 1" diameter inside a max 1.38" Clevis will be too loose.
I specify #2.5 clevises frequently for 3/4" rods, but there, the difference is only 1/8".
I'm concerned about the 3/8" difference comparing the 1" rod with the 1.38" clevis.
Is this a concern?
Advice?
Thank you!

RE: Clevis "Max D"
Smaller diameters can be provided for that size.
Look here: http://www.thesteelsupplyco.com/clevis-clevises
for an example site that sells clevises....note their discussion below the table about the value "U".
