    Cambering Steel Decks

    Do you think this would be a good method for approximating it though? I just want a ballpark value and would like to avoid sending it out for testing. I am not expecting to camber it a massive amount.

    Cambering Steel Decks

    Hi all, I'm looking to make a steel deck cambering jig so right now I'm trying to calculate the force required to permanently camber it a prescribed amount. What I've done so far is calculate the plastic force using [Plastic moment] = [Section Modulus]*[Yield Stress] and [Plastic Force] =...

    Sliding Bolt Grip Clearance

    That makes sense. I wasn't sure if the clearance was too much or too little and wanted to know if there was a standard table or equations to determine what was necessary. Although, it makes more sense just to consider the tolerance of the machine that will be making it so that all bolts will...

    Sliding Bolt Grip Clearance

    Hi all, I'm working on two plates that will be bolted together by a 3/4" bolt. The top plate has a slotted counterbore so that it can slide against the other (this is for thermal expansion purposes). What clearance should the grip slot have? Picture attached. Currently I have a clearance of 1/8".

    Slotted Counterbore

    Do you think this note would make sense? I'm using the counterbore format for a hole but swapping radii with slot dimensions. The smaller part of the slot being the upper dimension and the counterbore being the bottom dimension. Would this be clear on an engineering drawing? Thanks for the help.

    Slotted Counterbore

    So I've done this on a separate slot already (ignore how messy it is) but how do I indicate the counterbore information? I was trying to work it into the 2XR as I don't see how else to include it in a clean way.

    Slotted Counterbore

    Does anyone know if there is a correct way to denote a slotted counterbore? I've made these drawings based on what I think is the correct notation for slots and counterbore. I also added a cross section of what I'm trying to convey. Don't mind my rounding. I know I should just use the cross...
