Tensile Force on Bolt in Shear

Go Tensile Force in Bolt = pi*Core Diameter of Bolt*Height of Nut*Shear Yield Strength of Bolt/Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint

Thickness of Parts Held Together by Bolt given Stiffness of Bolt

Go Total Thickness of Parts held together by Bolt = (pi*Nominal Bolt Diameter^2*Modulus of Elasticity of Bolt)/(4*Stiffness of Bolt)

Stiffness of Bolt given Thickness of Parts Joined by Bolt

Go Stiffness of Bolt = (pi*Nominal Bolt Diameter^2*Modulus of Elasticity of Bolt)/(4*Total Thickness of Parts held together by Bolt)

Young's Modulus of Bolt given Stiffness of Bolt

Go Modulus of Elasticity of Bolt = (Stiffness of Bolt*Total Thickness of Parts held together by Bolt*4)/(Nominal Bolt Diameter^2*pi)

Tensile Force on Bolt in Tension

Go Tensile Force in Bolt = pi/4*Core Diameter of Bolt^2*Tensile Yield Strength of Bolt/Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint

Tensile Force on Bolt given Maximum Tensile Stress in Bolt

Go Tensile Force in Bolt = Maximum Tensile Stress in Bolt*pi/4*Core Diameter of Bolt^2

Imaginary Force at Center of Gravity of Bolted Joint given Primary Shear Force

Go Imaginary Force on Bolt = Primary Shear Force on Bolt*Number of Bolts in Bolted Joint

Number of Bolts given Primary Shear Force

Go Number of Bolts in Bolted Joint = Imaginary Force on Bolt/Primary Shear Force on Bolt

Pre Load in Bolt given Amount of Compression in Parts Joined by Bolt

Go Pre Load in Bolt = Amount of Compression of Bolted Joint*Combined Stiffness of Bolt

Pre Load in Bolt given Wrench Torque

Go Pre Load in Bolt = Wrench Torque for Bolt Tightening/(0.2*Nominal Bolt Diameter)

Wrench Torque Required to Create Required Pre Load

Go Wrench Torque for Bolt Tightening = 0.2*Pre Load in Bolt*Nominal Bolt Diameter

Resultant Load on Bolt given Pre Load and External Load

Go Resultant Load on Bolt = Pre Load in Bolt+Load due to External Force on Bolt

Pre Load in Bolt given Elongation of Bolt

Go Pre Load in Bolt = Elongation of Bolt*Stiffness of Bolt

Number of Bolts given Primary Shear Force Formula

Number of Bolts in Bolted Joint = Imaginary Force on Bolt/Primary Shear Force on Bolt
n = P/P₁'

Define Imaginary Forces

A fictitious force (also called a pseudo force, d'Alembert force or inertial force) is a force that appears to act on a mass whose motion is described using a non-inertial frame of reference, such as an accelerating or rotating reference frame. An example is seen in a passenger vehicle that is accelerating in the forward direction passengers perceive that they are acted upon by a force in the rearward direction pushing them back into their seats.
