Can anyone point me in the correct code to calculate bolt tension. I've previously used PCC-1 to calculate bolt torque values but have come upon a situation where tensioning is required by the client and I can't find any equations to help. This is for a 300lb 36" Series B flange with 1 5/8" dia bolts.
