    Salary Survey's- middle engineering management?

    sbozy25, Thanks for your comments. This helps give me some type of idea regarding mid-level management pay. What I find funny is they want to promote me from a Design engineer to this new position without ever telling me what the financial impact will be. Their response "more". Just trying...

    Bolt tension as a function of tensile strength

    Screwman, This post is dating back a bit and understand your frustration. I infact am guilty of asking our bolt manufacturer to help determine proper bolt torque tightening for each fastener we purchase from them. Using T=KFD, we should be able to calculate all we need. However how do we...

    creating a bolt torque calculator

    Electricpete, I can see only adding a few more details, like one time assembly or re-tightening considerations. Also what type of material the fastener will be used for instance steel or zinc. ALso additional materials like stainless steel, etc. Did you create your calculator in an Excel...

    creating a bolt torque calculator

    Thanks Electricpete, for your suggestions. I have basic formula's written out and need to put them into Excel or something. I was thinking a pull down menu listing all bolt sizes, K factors, etc., but that seems like a lot of typing.

    We extrude several million pounds of Aluminum channel a year and have been dis-satisfied with our current supplier for sometime now.
