Calculating the stiffness of the clamped parts is more complex. VDI 2230 uses a "conical frustum" model to simplify the stress distribution within the plates. 2. Preload and Tightening Factors ( αAalpha sub cap A Applying the correct assembly preload ( FMcap F sub cap M
VDI 2230 is a German engineering standard that provides detailed guidelines for the systematic calculation and design of bolted joints. The standard is applicable to a wide range of industries, including mechanical engineering, plant engineering, and construction. It offers a comprehensive approach to ensure that bolted joints are designed to withstand various loads and stresses, thereby guaranteeing the safety and reliability of the overall system. vdi 2230

VDI 2230 provides a detailed framework for the design and calculation of bolted joints. Some of the key aspects covered by the standard include: Preload and Tightening Factors ( αAalpha sub cap
The standard introduces the concept of Verspannungskegel (the deformation cone) and Tragbild (the bearing surface pattern). Suddenly, the bolt isn't just a rod with threads; it is a tension spring. The clamped plates are compression springs. The standard forces you to calculate the load introduction factor ($n$)—specifically, where the external force enters the joint. If the force enters under the bolt head, the joint behaves differently than if the force enters mid-thread.
