    Shear Failure of Bolted Joints - ME 372 Lab: Bolt Data

    Uploaded by

    boo hu
    This document summarizes an experiment on shear failure of bolted joints. It provides details on the bolt properties, joint configuration, and material properties used. Test results showed the failure load of two specimens was 2166 lbs and 2204 lbs, close to the predicted failure force of 1124.66 lbs calculated using standard methods accounting for shear stress area and friction. Calculations were also provided for tensile and torsional load components, greatest shear stress, uniform pressure distribution, and friction torque.
