BOLTGRP13

"BOLTGRP13" --- BOLT GROUP and BOLT STRESS ANALYSIS PROGRAM
Program Description:
"BOLTGRP13" is a spreadsheet program written in MS-Excel for the purpose of analysis of bolt groups using
either the ultimate strength method (also known as "instantaneous center of rotation" method) or the "elastic"
(vector) method, described on pages 7-8 through 7-9 of the AISC Manual. There is also a worksheet for bolt
stress analysis, and a separate worksheet that contains data tables for bolts.
This program is a workbook consisting of thirteen (13) worksheets, described as follows:
Worksheet Name Description

Bolt Group (<=75) Bolt group elastic analysis for up to 75 total bolts and 8 load points
Bolt Stress Bolt Stress Analysis for H.S. Bolts subject to tension and/or shear
Bolt Data Bolt Data Tables
Program Assumptions and Limitations:
1. The AISC eccentric loads on bolt groups worksheets (Tables 7-7 through 7-14, pages 7-32 through 7-79) are
applicable for only in-plane shear loads and torques (moments) on the bolt group.
2. The elastic method worksheets, "Bolt Group(<=25)" and "Bolt Group(<=75)", can be used for all cases of
in-plane and out-of-plane loads on the bolt group, or where geometry limitations of the AISC Tables 7-7
through 7-14 are ecceeded. The "elastic" method described on pages 7-8 through 7-9 of the AISC Manual
will always give conservative results when compared to using the AISC Tables.
3. The elastic method worksheets, "Bolt Group(<=25)" and "Bolt Group(<=75)", assume a minimum of 2 bolts
and a maximum of either 25 or 75 bolts for a bolt group.
4. The elastic method worksheets, "Bolt Group(<=25)" and "Bolt Group(<=75)", assume that all the bolts
contribute to the moment of inertia of the group, and the applied loads are linearly distributed among the bolts
based on the location of the bolts from the centroidal axes.
5. The elastic method worksheets, "Bolt Group(<=25)" and "Bolt Group(<=75)", assume an orthogonal X-Y-Z
coordinate system. All bolts and loads points MUST BE located in the "positive" (1st) quadrant. "Negative"
bolt or load point location coordinates are NOT permitted. "Right-Hand-Rule" sign convention is used for all
applied forces and moments at load point locations.
6. In the elastic method worksheets, "Bolt Group(<=25)" and "Bolt Group(<=75)", the bolts and load points can be
numbered in any desired order. However, the user should make sure to either clear the contents of all
spreadsheet cells that are not used for input or those cell values should be input = 0. All bolts and load points
MUST BE input in proper numerical sequence with no "breaks" in the numerical order of input data.
7. The "Bolt Stress" analysis worksheet checks allowable bolt tension and bolt shear against the applied values.
High strength bolts from 3/4" up through 1-1/2" diameter are assumed. Effects of fatigue are considered if
required. Bolts can be in either single or double shear. AISC 13th Edition Manual (ASD) is used.
8. Bolts designed using Slip-Critical are designed using slip as a "Strength Limit-State".
9. This program contains numerous “comment boxes” which contain a wide variety of information including
explanations of input or output items, equations used, data tables, etc. (Note: presence of a “comment box”
is denoted by a “red triangle” in the upper right-hand corner of a cell. Merely move the mouse pointer to the
desired cell to view the contents of that particular "comment box".)
10. The Bolt Data worksheet contains 2 pages of data tables for bolt allowable tension and shear forces, bolt
length determination, bolt hole dimensions, and minimum edge distances. All data is per AISC13th Edition
Manual (ASD).

2. Edge distance for rolled edge (etc.) may be reduced by 1/8" at a point where actual stress
is <= 25% of allowable stress.
3. For 7/8" and 1" dia. bolts at sheared edges, may use 1-1/4" at ends of beam conn. angles.

Notes: 1. Distance from center of oversize or slotted hole to edge of connected part shall not be less
than that for standard hole plus applicable increment, 'C2', from table.

difference between the maximum and actual slot lengths.
