Where might I find the Mathcad sheet for bolted joint computations, cited in SANDIA National Laboratories Report AND2008-0371, "Guideline for Bolted Joint Design and Analysis: Version 1.0", issued January 2008?
Have you tried contacting SNL or one of the authors?
No, but good point... I figured I'd try querying the PTC user community first, before contacting SNL and authors (if still employed there). Thank you for your response.
Hi Michael,
It is possible that the materials in an attachment to the message will help you.
Thank you for the reference material. I will use it to evaluate bolt stress and resultant safety factors as applied to a modular cooling unit that operates in a high-g environment, and compare against other methods.
Are you looking for a sheet that analyzes bolted joints, or are you looking for THAT sheet? There are several different ways. . .
I am looking for that exact sheet, if available.
