STRESS DISTRIBUTION IN JOINTS OF BOLTED OR RIVETED CONNECTIONS

Many trials have been carried out recently to determine the stress distribution in bolted and riveted joints, and also the joint stiffness, which is of extreme importance in the design of such joints. The problem could not have been till now satisfactorily treated analytically. That forced many designers to handle it experimentally as the known theories do not confirm with the test results.
