General Data:

Diameter of screw = 4 mm thickness of thinner = 1.2 mm

Length of screw = 11 mm part (t)

End and Edge distance = 15 mm

of screw t1 type = CONNECTING ELEMENT
Pitch of screws = 20 mm
t type = CONNECTED ELEMENT
thickness of thicker = 0.7 mm
part (t1)

Material Properties:

Basic yield = 350 N/mm2

strength (fyb)

Ultimate = 420 N/mm2

strength (fu)

Modulus of = 210000 N/mm2

Elasticity( E)

Poisson Ratio (v) = 0.3 N/mm2

Evaluation of Forces in screw:

Max. Axial Force in joint = 2.21 kN ( FROM SCIA ENGINEER RESULTS)

Max.Shear Force in screw in joint in x direc = 0.081 kN
Max.Shear Force in the joint in Y direction = 0 kN
No . Of screws per side = 2

Max. Axial Force per screw = 0.5525 kN ( FROM SCIA ENGINEER RESULTS)
Max.Shear Force in screw Dir. X = 0.02025 kN
Max.Shear Force in screw Dir.Y = 0 kN

Check the range of validity for design Resistance formulas

As per Cl. 8.3 , Table 8.2 of EN 1993-1-3
1… Min. Edge distance , e1 = 15 mm >3d = 12.00 mm
2… Min. Edge distance , e2 = 15 mm >1.5d = 6.00 mm
3… Min. Pitch , p = 20 mm >3d = 12.00 mm

CHECK FOR BEARING RESISTANCE DUE TO SHEAR

As per Cl. 8.3 , Table 8.2 of EN 1993-1-3
Fbrd = α fu d t 5.16 kN ………..(1) >2.2 kN , HENCE SAFE
γm2

α = 3.2 for t1 = t
fu = 420 N / mm2
γm2 = 1.25
