In a zig-zag riveted joint, the rivets in adjacent rows are staggered (not aligned in a straight line).
The back pitch is the perpendicular distance between the centers of rivets in two consecutive rows. It plays a crucial role in determining the joint's strength and resistance to shear and tearing forces.

Other important terms in riveted joints include:

Pitch (P): The distance between the centres of two consecutive rivets in the same row.
Diagonal Pitch (Pd): The distance between the centres of rivets in adjacent rows measured diagonally.
Margin (m): The distance from the edge of the plate to the nearest rivet hole.
