1.3.3 Bolt Tension Verification

1) The verification will be made for the most solicited bolt (the top bolt) - the bolt that is the furthest from the center of
rotation (compression).
2) The center of rotation (compression) will be assumed always in the middle of the haunch bottom flange or in the
middle of the secondary beam bottom flange (if haunch is missing).
3) This verification is made only if Ft,Ed > 0 (the bolt row is tensioned).
4) Axial force (entered by user) direction is the same as the beam axis direction.

1.3.7 Design Tension Resistance - Group of Bolt Rows

Fti j,Ed Fti j,Rd
Fti-j,Ed design tension force for group of bolt rows i - j
Fti-j,Rd design tension resistance for group of bolt rows i - j
i the first bolt row number from the bolts group
j the last bolt row number from the bolts group
Fti-j,Ed (F tr,Ed ), where r i...j
(Ftr,Ed ) min(Fti-j,wc,Rd; Fti-j,fc,Rd; Fti-j,ep,Rd; Fti-j,wb,Rd)
Convention:
If NEd is positive - tension axial force; Ftr,Ed Ftr,Ed,M + Ftr,Ed,N
If NEd is negative - compression axial force; Ftr,Ed Ftr,Ed,M - Ftr,Ed,N

MEd sign defines the first bolt row
57
All the bolt rows combinations between two obstacles (stiffeners, flanges) on the analyzed object (column, end plate)
define a bolt group.
58
For this example, the bolt rows are verified according to the next table:
