Shear failure of bolt A bolt may fail due to shearing. The shearing may take place at one section (known as single shear) or two sections (known ais double shear) depending on the type of connection. a an th Inbenring type connections, after bearing contact has taken through slip. the force transferred »p__ !*om one member to the other through shear in bolts in one shear plane or multiple shear planes. t depending on the type of connections. In lap or butt joints, the bolts are subjected to not only shear but also bending action due to the eccentricity of loads on bolts. : D } << EZ —_—Host eyo Aedes aways “| 4002-008 Yad SV SNOLLOSNNOO G31108 HO4 SNOLIVOIsI03dS NDISAG 81'z e241 Jo ssa 2m nO}=9U>4I2 sftoue 3h, ‘Squior payiog jo Auoays sy uy suondwinssy 2"1-2 sumpef pera: ee it 2umpofs0oys pue ima (a) 200i ated peveys 1108 pawiojop 109, Mnyreg wos, “¢ reid ‘500190009 PepIaM PUB panoG TOUBIEED Saimjnig Awose7 pu 79815 jo ubSaqio Find the efficiency of lap joint shown in figure 2.9.
