ASSIGNMENT NO : 1 1. a) Explain in briefly the different types of failures of riveted joints with suitable sketches. b) A double riveted double cover butt joint is used to connect plates 12mm thick. Determine the diameters of the rivet, rivet value,pitch and efficiency of the joint. Adopt the permissible stress in plate for axial tension may be taken as 0.6 f y , f y =250N/mm 2 and power driven shop rivets. 2. a) State the assumptions in the theory of riveted joints. b) The truss members meeting at a bottom joint as shown in figure. Design the riveted Joint connection by 10mm thick gusset plate. Sketch also the joint details.Using t...
