Optimization Design of Bolted Connections Based on Contact Stress

Article Preview

Abstract:

In a sling and hoisting structure consists of seamless steel tubes as hoisting column, bolts and connectors, all the weights are supported by bolted joints. For the bolt joint is located near the end of the hollow column, the position of the holes in sling column have important influence on the loading ability of the structure. In order to study the reliability of the sling structure, the contact stresses between bolts and its connectors are calculated theoretically and by using FEM (finite element method), and the optimum position of the holes are determined further.
