Calculate bending moment use Ftu to get your allowable load if its not sufficient use plastic bending if this is not sufficient either then do some engineering test on bolt. But engineering test will give you only one data point not good enough for certification. Try Bruhn D1.14 for bolt bending...
SW Composites,
aud -
what is your specific question(s)?
- do you want to know how to test a tie rod?
Tie rod wont be tested independantly but it will be installed on partition and the partition will be tested.
- do you want to know how to analyze a tie rod?
Yes. I want to make sure it doesnt...
Its just a regular tie rod. With Aluminium Tube and Steel Rod Ends. Although it has X, Y and Z loads acting on it (see very first attachment) beacuse of the nature of tie rod resultant will be always be axial load and it will be reacted as a compression. Therefore, I am assuming failure modes...
Hi,
Thanks for prompt reply. Both Ends of the tie rod are attached using clevis fittings. See attached.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=dcfe6d94-6725-4685-8303-fefa0262b585&file=tie-rod2.pdf
Hi,
I have a tie rod which is installed on attendant partition in compression. Beacuase of the angle at which its installed it has ltaeral load. I was wondering if any of you have some experince in testing of tie rod which is in compression and installed at some angle? What are the possible...
