DNVGL RP C203 Bolt Fatigue Stress

Calculate DNVGL-RP-C203 allowable number of fatigue cycles for bolts in tension, bolts in shear, and flange bolts.

Bolts are assumed to be in tension. Compressive bolt loads should not be included in the load amplitude. Shear loads should not include reversible loads. The mean stress is not included in the calculation.

CALCULATOR : DNVGL RP C203 Bolt Tensile Stress Amplitude And Allowable Cycles [PLUS]   ±

Calculate DNVGL RP C203 bolt tensile stress amplitude and allowable cycles from tensile load amplitude.

The bolt is assumed to be in tension (the mean stress is ignored). The tension load amplitude is the difference in tension load (compression is ignored). The bolt tensile area can be calculated for either ANSI threads, or ISO threads.

CALCULATOR : DNVGL RP C203 Bolt Shear Stress Amplitude And Allowable Cycles [PLUS]   ±

Calculate DNVGL RP C203 bolt shear stress amplitude and allowable cycles from shear load amplitude.

The shear load is assumed to act on the shank of the bolt, and not on the thread area. The calculation is not valid for reversing shear loads.
