Australian Method of Standard Tensioning Remarks AS 1111 Use Snug tightened. Least costly and most commonly available 4.6 Grade bolt. AS 1252 Bolts used are Snug tightened. The high strength structural has a large bolt head and nut because it is designed to withstand full tensioning (see 8.8T category description). However, it can also be used in a snug tight condition. AS 1252 In both applications bolts are fully Tensioned to the requirements of AS4100. Cost of tensioning is an important consideration in the use of these bolting categories.
