Field Manager for Structural Bolting 8 Introduction and Purpose The purpose of this Field Manual for Structural Bolting is to summarize basic definitions, concepts and procedures for bolted connections. The Manual addresses general considerations for bolting, installation preparation, in-stallation techniques and inspection procedures. The in- Structural bolts are specifically designed for use with heavy hex nuts in the connection of structural members (as opposed to tapped holes). The nuts for structural connections shall conform to ASTM A563 or ASTM A194. The following chart will assist in proper structural nut selection.

These drawings are in addition to the erection tensioning of structural bolting. Bolt torque values are not shown in AS4100. TORQUE: The energy taken to twist the nut up the thread of the bolt (Measured in Nm). TENSION: The force generated in the bolt to clamp the steel plies together (Measured in kN).
