Transverse pitch Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Transverse Pitch of Rivet = sqrt(((2*Longitudinal Pitch of Rivet Joint+Diameter of Rivet)/3)^2-(Longitudinal Pitch of Rivet Joint/2)^2)
p_t = sqrt(((2*p_l+d)/3)^2-(p_l/2)^2)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Transverse Pitch of Rivet - (Measured in Meter) - Transverse Pitch of Rivet is defined as the distance between two consecutive rows of rivets in the same plate.
Longitudinal Pitch of Rivet Joint - (Measured in Meter) - Longitudinal Pitch of Rivet Joint is defined as the distance from the center of the rivet to the center of the next rivet in the same row measured on the gauge line.
Diameter of Rivet - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Rivet is somewhat equal to diameter of the hole in which rivetting is to be done. It is the diameter of the shank length of a rivet.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Longitudinal Pitch of Rivet Joint: 32.2 Millimeter --> 0.0322 Meter (Check conversion here)
Diameter of Rivet: 18 Millimeter --> 0.018 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

p_t = sqrt(((2*p_l+d)/3)^2-(p_l/2)^2) --> sqrt(((2*0.0322+0.018)/3)^2-(0.0322/2)^2)

Evaluating ... ...

p_t = 0.0222532644296916

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0222532644296916 Meter -->22.2532644296916 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

22.2532644296916 ≈ 22.25326 Millimeter <-- Transverse Pitch of Rivet
