Diameter of Wood Screw given Allowable Load per Inch of Penetration Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Diameter of Wood Screw = Total Allowable Load/(2850*Specific Gravity of Wood Oven Dry^2)
D_screw = P/(2850*G^2)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Diameter of Wood Screw - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Wood Screw being penetrated into side grain of seasoned wood that remains dry.
Total Allowable Load - (Measured in Newton) - Total Allowable Load is the capacity or can say the maximum load allowed.
Specific Gravity of Wood Oven Dry - Specific gravity of wood oven dry, Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a given reference material.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Allowable Load: 10 Newton --> 10 Newton No Conversion Required
Specific Gravity of Wood Oven Dry: 0.265 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_screw = P/(2850*G^2) --> 10/(2850*0.265^2)

Evaluating ... ...

D_screw = 0.0499647124218521

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0499647124218521 Meter -->49.9647124218521 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

49.9647124218521 ≈ 49.96471 Millimeter <-- Diameter of Wood Screw

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
