1. Preloaded assembly subjected to an external force carried by the bolt axis
1.1 Pre-stressing
Consider an assembly (Figure 1 ) consisting of two simple plates clamped together by a bolt (with or without a washer). The clamping force Q obtained by applying the tightening torque C acts on the bolt shank as a tensile force.
