Variables Used
Core Diameter of Bolt - (Measured in Meter) - Core Diameter of Bolt is defined as the smallest diameter of the thread of the bolt. The term “minor diameter” replaces the term “core diameter” as applied to the thread.
Tensile Force in Bolt - (Measured in Newton) - Tensile Force in Bolt is the stretching force acting on the bolt and generally results in tensile stress and tensile strain in the specimen.
Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint - Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint expresses how much stronger a bolted joint system is than it needs to be for an intended load.
Shear Yield Strength of Bolt - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear Yield Strength of Bolt is the strength of the bolt against the type of yield or structural failure when the material or component fails in shear.
Height of Nut - (Measured in Meter) - Height of Nut is defined as the height of the nut that is used in fitting to the bolt.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Tensile Force in Bolt: 9990 Newton --> 9990 Newton No Conversion Required
Factor of Safety of Bolted Joint: 3 --> No Conversion Required
Shear Yield Strength of Bolt: 132.6 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 132600000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Height of Nut: 6 Millimeter --> 0.006 Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
dc = Ptb*fs/(pi*Ssy*h) --> 9990*3/(pi*132600000*0.006)
Evaluating ... ...
dc = 0.0119906325904075
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.0119906325904075 Meter -->11.9906325904075 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
11.9906325904075 11.99063 Millimeter <-- Core Diameter of Bolt
