Where did the 30x10^3 come from? Regardless, your method is wrong. In determining Q for bolt shear, either you use the top right board full area, or the top left board full area, or the middle and 2 bottom areas divided by 2 ( this last method not recommended, but may help conceptually with your understanding).fonseh said:
Shear stress is the force applied parallel to the surface of an object, causing it to deform or shear.
A bolt can resist shear stress by transferring the force between two or more objects through its body and into the surrounding material.
The shear stress resisted by a bolt is affected by factors such as the material properties of the bolt and the surrounding material, the size and diameter of the bolt, and the type of loading applied.
The shear stress resisted by a bolt can be calculated by dividing the force applied by the cross-sectional area of the bolt.
Considering shear stress in bolt design is important because it ensures that the bolt is strong enough to withstand the forces and prevent failure, ensuring the structural integrity and safety of the connected objects.
