Shear Load per width Formula

Edge Load per Unit Width = (pi*(Diameter^2)*Maximum Shear Stress)/(4*Distance between Rivets)
P = (pi*(D^2)*𝜏_max)/(4*b)

Maximum Shear Stress

The maximum shear stress is the maximum concentrated shear force in a small area. It is essential for a structural engineer to identify and assess a member's maximum shear stress in order to design the member to withstand it.

How to Calculate Shear Load per width?

Shear Load per width calculator uses Edge Load per Unit Width = (pi*(Diameter^2)*Maximum Shear Stress)/(4*Distance between Rivets) to calculate the Edge Load per Unit Width, The shear load per width refers to the amount of shear force applied to a structural member per unit width along its cross-section. Shear force is a type of force that acts parallel to the surface of a material, causing it to deform or fail by sliding or tearing along the plane of the force. Edge Load per Unit Width is denoted by P symbol.
