Strength of rivet in shearing and bearing are calculated and the lesser value among two is known as rivet value.

After calculating rivet value,

No.of rivets = total load/ rivet Value.

(6M/lpR)^1/2.

(6x30x15/2x6x4)^1/2.

7.5 answer.

8 rivet.

A1 - stainless rod 50 feet long how high from the middle will have to rise to have the ends come in 1 F foot.

I do find out the formula for tearing the plate is P1 = S1(P-d)t. Here S1 is the allowable tensile stress, p=pitch, d=dia, t=thickness of plate and for the shearing of the rivet is P2=Ss (area of one rivet=0.785*d^2).

Here Ss is the allowable shear stress of the rivet material. So, from this two formula I don't know the "tensile stress" and "shear stress" and "dia of rivet", how can I determine the strength of rivet? Please suggest me.

Thank you.

The simple method to find no. of rivet is-it is the question of bracket connection so in this connection same no. of rivets are required on each flange to connect the bracket.

So each side required. Rivets are = 15/4 = 3.75 = 4 rivets each side, so total no. of rivets required both side for connection are = 8.

What is the formula for strength in shearing and bearing?

According to me,

Mri/(nri2) + p.
n = 15
