Eccentric Shear Connections Spreadsheet
I built a spreadsheet to provide an easy way to assess eccentric bolt loadings. The user inputs a few parameters and the C coefficient is calculated for a full range of bolt pattern (1 to 4 columns of bolts, 1 to 12 rows of bolts).
- Eccentrically loaded bolt group
- Ultimate Strength (Plastic Analysis)
- Uses Instantaneous Center of Rotation (I.C.)
