Scope
This Specification covers the design of bolted joints and the installation and inspection of the assemblies of fastener components listed in Section 1.3, the use of alternative-design fasteners as permitted in Section 2.8 and alternative washer-type indicating devices as permitted in Section 2.6.2, in structural steel joints. This Specification relates only to those aspects of the connected materials that bear upon the performance of the fastener components. The Symbols, Glossary and Appendices are a part of this Specification. Commentary:
This Specification deals principally with two strength grades of high-strength bolts, ASTM A325 and A490, and with their design, installation and inspection in structural steel joints. Equivalent fasteners, however, such as ASTM F1852 (equivalent to ASTM A325) and F2280 (equivalent to ASTM A490) twist-offtype tension-control bolt assemblies, are also covered. These provisions may not be relied upon for high-strength fasteners of other chemical composition, mechanical properties, or size. These provisions do not apply when material other than steel is included in the grip; nor are they applicable to anchor rods. This Specification relates only to the performance of fasteners in structural steel joints and those few aspects of the connected material that affect this performance. Many other aspects of connection design and fabrication are of equal importance and must not be overlooked. For more general information on design and issues relating to high-strength bolting and the connected material, refer to current steel design textbooks and the Guide to Design Criteria for Bolted and Riveted Joints, 2nd Edition (Kulak et al., 1987).
