Interactive Quizzes
Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.
Question 1
What is the main formula for calculating nominal strength in bolts?
- R = F_b A_n
- R = F_b A_g
- R = A_n / F_b
💡 Hint: Look for the relationship between tensile strength and stress area.
Question 2
The tensile stress area is typically larger than the gross area of a bolt. True or False?
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Think about how threads affect the area.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Design a bolted connection requiring a nominal strength of at least 100 ksi. If using A490 bolts, what minimum tensile stress area must be achieved?
💡 Hint: Rearrange the formula R = F_b A_n.
Question 2
If A_g of a bolt is found to be 1 in², but due to threading, A_n is determined as 0.75 in²: What is the ratio of A_n to A_g, and discuss its implications.
💡 Hint: Calculate and consider real-world application in design.
