Disadvantages of bolted connection
Bolts :- A bolt is defined as metal pin with a head at one end and a shank threaded at the other end in order to receive a nut .
uses of bolts
| SI.NO. | Direct shear test | Triaxial shear test |
| 1. | Direct shear test is the simplest and oldest test. | Triaxial test is much more complicated. |
| 2. | It is difficult to control the drainage condition. | Drainage condition during the test can be controlled. |
| 3. | Pore water pressure cannot be measured. | Pore water pressure can be measured. |
| 4. | The shear failure is predetermined | shear failure is not predetermined |
| 5. | Only total stresses are known. | Effective stress can also be determined. |
| 6. | Stress distribution on the failure plane is non-uniform | Stress distribution on the failure plane is uniform. |
