Shear resistance

Normal bolts

The shear resistance per shear plane and per bolt is given by :

for bolt grade 4.6, 5.6 and 8.8 :

for bolt grade 4.8, 5.8 and 10.9 :

with

As

the tensile stress area of bolt

fub

γM2

the partial safety factor for resistance of bolts

βLf

the reduction factor for long joints

Fv.Rd
