Abstract

The article discusses a calculation procedure for determining the load and stress conditions in stud joints. There are considered two based types of stud fixing: with a circular rim and with an abutting end. There are given the equations for calculation of tightening torques for both types of studs. It is shown the load distribution in joined parts and by help of experimental research is shown that studs with the circular rim are a bit stronger that the studs with the abutting end.
