Designing Applications For Fasteners

"Fastener Design Manual", written to provide design engineers with single source assisting in choosing appropriate fasteners for their designs. Gives practical information on selection of fastener materials, platings, lubricants, galvanic corrosion, embrittlement by hydrogen, locking methods, inserts, washers, types and classes of threads, fatigue loading, and fastener torque.

Fastener Design Manual

This manual was written for design engineers to enable them to choose appropriate fasteners for their designs. Subject matter includes fastener material selection, platings, lubricants, corrosion, locking methods, washers, inserts, thread types and classes, fatigue loading, and fastener torque. A section on design criteria covers the derivation of torque formulas, loads on a fastener group, combining simultaneous shear and tension loads, pullout load for tapped holes, grip length, head styles, and fastener strengths. The second half of this manual presents general guidelines and selection criteria for rivets and lockbolts.
