Cross Sectional Area of Bolt Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Cross Sectional Area of Bolt = Load on Each Bolt/Permissible Stress for Bolt Materials
A_bolt = P_bolt/f_bolt
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Cross Sectional Area of Bolt - (Measured in Square Meter) - Cross Sectional Area of Bolt refers to the area of a dimensional shape or section that is perpendicular to the axis of bolt.
Load on Each Bolt - (Measured in Newton) - Load on Each Bolt in a bolted joint is typically determined by dividing the total load or force being applied to the joint by the number of bolts in the joint.
Permissible Stress for Bolt Materials - (Measured in Pascal) - Permissible Stress for Bolt Materials is the allowable stress in a design.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load on Each Bolt: 2151.921 Newton --> 2151.921 Newton No Conversion Required
Permissible Stress for Bolt Materials: 105.31 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 105310000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A_bolt = P_bolt/f_bolt --> 2151.921/105310000

Evaluating ... ...

A_bolt = 2.04341563004463E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.04341563004463E-05 Square Meter -->20.4341563004463 Square Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

20.4341563004463 ≈ 20.43416 Square Millimeter <-- Cross Sectional Area of Bolt

Maximum Stress in Horizontal Plate fixed at Edges

Go Maximum Stress in Horizontal Plate fixed at Edges = 0.7*Maximum Pressure on Horizontal Plate*((Length of Horizontal Plate)^(2)/(Thickness of Horizontal Plate)^(2))*((Effective Width of Horizontal Plate)^(4)/((Length of Horizontal Plate)^(4)+(Effective Width of Horizontal Plate))^(4))

Wind Pressure acting on Upper Part of Vessel

Go Wind Pressure acting on Upper Part of Vessel = Wind Load acting on Upper Part of Vessel/(Coefficient depending on Shape Factor*Coefficient Period of One Cycle of Vibration*Height of Upper Part of Vessel*Outside Diameter of Vessel)

Wind Pressure acting on Lower Part of Vessel

Go Wind Pressure acting on Lower Part of Vessel = Wind Load acting on Lower Part of Vessel/(Coefficient depending on Shape Factor*Coefficient Period of One Cycle of Vibration*Height of Lower Part of Vessel*Outside Diameter of Vessel)

Height of Lower Part of Vessel

Go Height of Lower Part of Vessel = Wind Load acting on Lower Part of Vessel/(Coefficient depending on Shape Factor*Coefficient Period of One Cycle of Vibration*Wind Pressure acting on Lower Part of Vessel*Outside Diameter of Vessel)
