Design Check for Slip Resistance (a) Slip-Critical Joints. Joints in which, in the judgment of the Engineer of Record, slip would be detrimental to the behavior of the joint, are defined as slip-critical. As discussed in the Commentary, these include but are not necessarily limited to joints subject to fatigue or significant load reversal, joints with bolts in oversize holes or slotted holes with the applied force approximately in the direction of the long dimension of the slots and joints in which welds and bolts share in transmitting shear loads at a common faying surface. Slip-critical joints shall be checked for slip resistance, At the option of the Engineer of Record, the required check may be based upon either nominal loads or factored loads. When serviceability at the nominal (service) load is the design criterion, the design slip resistance specified in Section 5(b) shall be compared with the effects of the nominal loads. When slip of the joint at the factored load level would affect the ability of the structure to support the factored load, the design slip resistance speci- fied in Section 5(c) shall be compared to the effects of the factored loads. Slip-crtical joints shall also be checked to ensure that the ultimate strength of the joint as a bearing joint is equal to or greater than the effect of the factored loads. Slip-critical joints must be designated on the contract plans and in the specifications. Bolts used in slip-critical joints shall be installed in accor dance with the provisions of Seotion 80). ‘Stip-Critical Jomnts Designed ar the Nom bi i Joints for which nominal loads are the design eriterion shall, in addition {o meeting the requirements of Section 4, be proportioned so that the force due to nominal (service) loads does not exceed the design slip resistance for use at nominal loads (service) loads, $R,, where: R= Duh, NoN, (LRED 5.1) Where: R, = nominal slip resistance of a bolt for use at nominal loads, kips ‘minimum fastener tension given in Table 4, Kips pieons jumber of slip planes lip probability factor* = 0.81 for 1 equal to 0.33 .86 for 1s equal to 0.40 Awrericaw Lystrruvs of Sma.
