‘What are the merits and demerits of bolted connection over riveted connection?
“Ans, Merits of bolted connection over riveted connection :
1. The erection of the structure can be speeded up.
2. Less skilled persons are required.
3, The overall cost of bolted construction is cheaper than that of rive
because of reduced labour and equipment costs and the smaller number
required resisting the same load.
Demerits of bolted correction are as follows:
1. Costof material is high, about double than that of rivets.

Define the following terms in relation to bolted joints.
Nominal diameter 2. Effective or gross diameter
3. Grossarea 4, Netarea
5. Pitch 6. Gauge
7. Edge distance 8. Proofload
9. Slip factor 10, Property class
‘Ans. 1, Nominal diameter: The diameter of the shank of a rivet before riveting, is called
the nominal diameter. For a bolt, the diameter of the unthreaded portion of the
shank is called its nominal diameter.
2. Effective diameter or gross diameter : The effective or gross diameter ofa rivets
‘equal to the diameter of the hole it fills after riveting, For a bolt the nominal |
diameter is same as the gross diameter. |
Gross area : The gross area of a rivet or bolt i given by its gross diameter.
Net area: The net area of a boltis the area at the root of the thread,
Pitch : The distance between centres of any two adjacent rivet
Diagonal pitch : The distance between centres of any two adjacent rivets in the
diagonal direction is called diagonal pitch.
Staggered pitch : The distance between any two consecutive rivets in a zig-zag
riveting, measured parallel to the direction of stress in the member is called
staggered pitch,
5. Gauge: A row of rivets parallel to the direction of force is called a gauge line. The
normal distance between two adjacent gauge lines is called the gauge distance.

7. Proof load : Initial tension in HSFG bolts is known as proof load of the bolt.
8. Slip factor : Coefficient of friction in friction type joint is known as slip factor.
9. Property Class : Bolts are grounded under different grades or property classes
depending upon their strength. For example, property class 4.6 indicates that tt
‘nominal yield stress is 0.6%400 = 240 MPa .

1. Groove Welds : Groove welds are used to connect structural members that are
aligned in the same plane and often used in butt joints. Groove welds may_
also be used in T-connections. The grooves have a slope of30° 60°. The
Square groove weld is used to connect plates up to 8—mm thickness.
2 Fillet weld : Fillet welds are most widely used due to their economy, ease of
fabrication, and adoptability at site. They are approximately triangular in
‘cross section and a few example of application of fillet weld are shown in Fig.
Unlike groove welds, they require less precision in ‘fitting up’ two sections,
due to the overlapping of pieces. Hence, they are adopted in field as well as

Question 39
What are the types of welded joints?
‘Ans, The five basic types of welded joints are :
1 Buttjoint: A butt joint is used to join the ends of flat plates of nearly equal
thickness. The butt joint obtained from a full penetration groove weld has 1094,
efficiency.

2. Lap joint: Lap joints are most commonly used because they offer eas offing RK Mee eT ee ne :
and ease of jointing, Lap joints utilize fillet welds and hence are well suited 6 | ICSVTU Dex 20181
shop as well s field welding. ‘Ans. The transverse fillet welds will be subjected to more uniform stress distribution and
amped therefore are more efficient, which is shown in figure.
