Determine the joint clamp force (N) for a hot-dip galvanized M50 stud and hex nut combination that has been tightened to a torque value of 12,511 N-m.

What will be an ideal response?


The reference torque value may be calculated using: T = KDF
T = 12,511 N-m, K for hot-dip galvanizing = 0.25, Nominal D = 50mm or 0.05m, and F =? Some manipulation of the equation will yield T/(KD) = F; 12,511 N-m/(0.25 x 0.05m) = 1,000,849 N
