6-576 CSC SPECIFICATION FOR STRUCTURAL JOINTS (6/8/88) than one inch from the edge of any hole and all areas within the bolt pattern. (2) Joints specified to have painted faying surfaces shall be blast cleaned and coated with a paint which has been qualified as Class A or B in accordance with the requirements of paracraph 2(g), except as provided in 3(b)3. (3) Subject to the approval of the Engineer of Record, coatings pro- viding a slip coefficient less than 0.33 may be used provided the ‘mean slip coefficient is established by test in accordance with the requirements of paragraph 2(g), and the design slip resistance, 9R,, calculated in accordance with the formula in Section 5(b) or 5(6), (4) Coated joints shall not be assembled before the coatings have cured for the minimum time used in the qualifying test. (5) Faying surfaces specified to be galvanized shall be hot-dip gal- vanized in accordance with American Society for Testing and Mate- rials’ “Specification for Zinc (Hot-Galvanized) Coatings on Prod- ucts Fabricated from Rolled, Pressed, and Forged Stee! Shapes, Plates, Bars, and Strip,” ASTM A123 and shall subsequently be roughened by means of hand wire brushing. Power wire brushing is not permitted. (©) Hole ‘Types. Hole types recognized under this specification are standard holes, oversize holes, short slotted holes and long slotted holes. The nomi- nal dimensions for each type hole shall be not greater than those shown in Table 1, Hofes not more than ¥: inch larger in diameter than the true decimal equivalent of the nominal diameter that may result from a drill or reamer of the nominal diameter are considered acceptable. The slightly con- ical hole that naturally results from punching operations is considered accept- able. The width of slotted holes which are produced by flame cutting or combination of drilling or punching and flame cutting shall generally be not more than "4 inch greater than the nominal width except that gouges rections the flame Cut surface need not be ground: Por dynamically loaded ——— 4. Design of Bolted Connections Expressions for design strengths, Ry, of bolts subject to axial tension, shear and combined shear and tension are given in 4(a) and 4(b). They are to be compared to the effect of the factored loads. The design resistances of bolts subject to cyclic application of axial tension ate given in 4(e). They are to be compared to effect of cyclically applied nominal (service) loads. (a) Tension and Shear Strength Limit States, The design strength in axial tener tension specified in Table 4 is OR,. The design strength in shear for A325 and A490 bolts, independent of the installed bolt pretension, is 4X, where: R= Fav (LRFD 4.1) Antenicay INSTITUTI‘OF STEEL CoRSTRUCTION
