Mechanical Design of Machine Components

Capacity of a Riveted Connection

The standard AISC connection for the W310 × 52 beam consists of two 102 × 102 × 6.4 mm angles, each 215 mm long, 22 mm rivets spaced 75 mm apart are used in 24 mm holes (Figure 15.19). Calculate the maximum load that the connection can carry.

Design Decisions: The allowable stresses are 100 MPa in shear and 335 MPa in bearing of rivets. Tensile failure cannot occur in this connection; only shearing and bearing capacities need to be investigated.
