12 Introduction—Concept of Stress The previous bolt is said to be in single shear. Different loading situations may arise, however. For example, if splice plates C and D are used to connect plates A and B (Fig. 1.18), shear will take place in bolt HJ in each of the two planes KK9 and LL9 (and similarly in bolt EG). The bolts are said to be in double shear. To determine the average shearing stress in each plane, draw free-body diagrams of bolt HJ and of the portion of the bolt located between the two planes (Fig. 1.19). Observing that the shear P in each of the sections is P 5 Fy2, the average shearing stress is tave 5 P A 5 Fy2 A 5 F 2A (1.10) Fig. 1.20 Equal and opposite forces between plate and bolt, exerted over bearing surfaces.

K B A L E H G J C D K' L' F' F 1.2C Bearing Stress in Connections Bolts, pins, and rivets create stresses in the members they connect along the bearing surface or surface of contact. For example, consider again the two plates A and B connected by a bolt CD that were discussed in the preceding section (Fig. 1.16). The bolt exerts on plate A a force P equal and opposite to the force F exerted by the plate on the bolt (Fig. 1.20). The force P represents the resultant of elementary forces distributed on the inside surface of a half- cylinder of diameter d and of length t equal to the thickness of the plate. Since the distribution of these forces—and of the corresponding stresses—is quite complicated, in practice one uses an average nominal value sb of the stress, called the bearing stress, which is obtained by dividing the load P by the area of the rectangle representing the projection of the bolt on the plate section (Fig. 1.21). Since this area is equal to td, where t is the plate thickness and d the diameter of the bolt, we have sb 5 P A 5 P td (1.11) 1.2D Application to the Analysis and Design of Simple Structures We are now in a position to determine the stresses in the members and connections of various simple two-dimensional structures and to design such structures.
