Types of Bolted JointsTypes of Bolted Joints

1. Joints with Bolts in Shear

2. Joints with Bolts in Tension

Bolted hollow section joints can typically be classified

into two groups, depending on how the bolts are loaded:

Bolted Gusset-Plate Joints to RHS

Limitation:

Member widths must be closely matched.

Potential Problem:

Welding contraction tends to pull the gussets inwards. The gussets may need to be spread slightly by jacking after welding.

Wardenier RHS Joints - Oslo Course 2009

Bolted Gusset-Plate to RHS Joints

Design needs to consider potential failure modes:

1. Shear failure of bolts

2. Bolt bearing: On the hollow section and on the gusset plate

3. Yielding or buckling of the gusset plate, using the Whitmore

criterion

4. Tear Out of the gusset plate (tension only) – All possible failure paths

5. Tear Out of the hollow section (Member tension load only)

– Examine all possible failure paths

3. Yielding or buckling of the gusset plate, using the Whitmore

criterion

If load is compression; buckling

capacity is based on a column of

width (g + 1.15 ∑ p), depth of tp ,

a length equal to the minimum of

L1, L2 and L3 and an effective

length factor of 0.65.

PRYING FORCES develop when flange-plates lever against each other.

⇒ Prying forces increase the load in the bolts

⇒ Early failure of the connection

One-Sided Bolting using FlowdrillOne-Sided Bolting using Flowdrill

- The Flowdrill extrudes a precision hole in the hollow section, with 80% of the molten displaced material flowing down and 20% up.

- This forms a boss of 3 times the hollow section thickness, which can then be threaded with a Flowtap.

- Conventional bolts can then be screwed into the holes from one side.

- Less tolerance for field bolting relative to conventional bolt holes.

Design Recommendations

Wardenier RHS Joints - Oslo Course 2009

Design Recommendations

Simulate as standard RHS-RHS T-joint, with outer bolt

centres as the RHS bracing corners, with a reduction for

the bolt holes

Example: Cast steel node for space frames

Nails in Shear

Powder–activated fasteners, or "nails", can be used as structural

connectors for mating circular hollow sections

Ideal for poles – especially in remote locations

Wardenier RHS Joints - Oslo Course 2009

Joint design is based on classic failure modes

for bolted joints:

1. Shear failure

of fasteners

2. Fastener bearing

on the base metal3. Net section fracture of

the tube cross section
