This is a 4 bollard situation lifting a heavy machine. 7 bolts with a space at the 8th top position. Bollard is loaded with dead load and a cable load off at a variable angle. Moment arm is 4 to 5 inches off the bolt shear plane. No grout but steel to steel contact. Bolts may be pre-loaded. No...
I have a circular pattern of bolts. One bolt in the pattern is missing. Given a single shear load aligned between any two bolts at "x" inches away from the shear plane.....What's a good method of finding bolt shear and tension on each bolt?
