Bolted Connection
Spacing of Bolts / Nails / Screws
| Spacing Formula $s = \dfrac{RI}{VQ}$ or $s = \dfrac{R}{q}$ |
Shear Flow Formula $q = \dfrac{VQ}{I}$ |
Where
s = spacing of bolts
R = shear capacity of bolts
I = moment of inertia of the section about the neutral axis
V = maximum shear
Q = moment of area
