Bolt diameter [in][0.625/0.75/0.875/1/1.1225]: Nominal diameter of the bolt used in design. The design only supports the given options for bolt diameter, and entering a different bolt diameter is not supported.

Diameter of head [in]:

Diameter of the nut [in]:

Thickness of the head [in]:

Thickness of the nut [in]:

Mechanical Properties

ASTM Standard of Bolts[LowStrengthBolt/ASTM_F3125]: The distinction between high strength and low strength bolts determines the shear resistance of each type, as well as the slip resistance of high strength bolts.

Grade of bolt materialGrade of Bolt Material[A325/F1852/A490/F2280/A307_GradeA]: The type of material used for the bolt determines the shear resistance of low strength bolts and the minimum required bolt tension for high strength bolts.

Is Bolt Slip Critical[Yes/No]: Option to specify the mechanism by which bolt force is transferred. This parameter turns automatically into ‘N/A’ (Not Applicable) in case a low strength bolt grade is selected.

Hole typeType[StandardHole / OversizeAndShortSlottedHole / Long Slotted Holes with Perpendicular To Force /Long Slotted Holes With Parallel To Force]: To determine the maximum allowable hole sizes, minimum spacing, and clear distances in the design.

Punched or Drilled Hole?: Affects the reduction factor for bolt holes in determining block shear rupture resistance.

Bolt Thread[Excluded/Included]: The type of bolt is determined by the position of threads relative to the shear plane and impacts the shear resistance of the bolt.
