Are there any other design considerations I need to account for since the yield strength is so much lower than the ultimate strength for tensile design?
I have not designed with stainless steel bolts before, but our customer is requiring us to use them in our design instead of going with galvanized bolts. Is there a good design manual to use for SS bolted connections?
That makes sense to me. I will just go with my standard hef value then and it simplifies a lot.
I also have this, a friend of mine went to a conference and got it, but these two parts are what he sent me that applies to my...
I should have specified that the load is from a high moment and little shear, so it is the tensile breakout I am referring to. But, I am not worried about the breakout strength just making sure my anchors fall under the 0.5hef per section D.5.2.9.
Bones,
Look at the example 34-8, they used...
I have a wide flange attaching to the top of a circular pier with a base plate and anchor bolts and am struggling to figure out what to use for my Ca,max value.
The base plate is square and the anchor bolts are layed out in a line with 4 on each side of the wide flange. I would like to lay...
The drawing I posted was just a generic starting point to give the overall concept of what I was doing. The dimensions and loads will vary from project to project and will need to be calculated for each. There is little axial load in the base plate. Most of the load is due to the moment...
I am trying to design my anchor bolt embedment depth per the attached pdf and am having a hard time finding references to do the design.
I found one article from corypad on a circular anchor group going to a circular pier. If I use this same concept, what do you use for the g value...
