| Abstract: |
A simple model for evaluating prying forces in T - hanger connection with snug tightened bolts is proposed. The model includes the flexural stiffness of the flanges and the axial stiffness of the bolts. It is valid as far as the connection behaves in an elastic manner. Prying forces' values were obtained from this analysis and compared to those obtained from the proposed model. The obtained results show good agreement and verify the adequacy of the proposed model. A parametric study was carried out. The effects of the different geometrical properties of the connection on prying force values have been presented and discussed. Design procedure is proposed. |
