‘This practice is comparable to that for
high-strength carbon steel structural
bos. However, itis slightly more liberal
bbacause of the generally shorter joint
lengths in cold-formed stainless steel
‘construction. For bolts nat sted in Table
6, the allowable shear stress can be
eterinad in the same manna.
‘ToRQUE - Another consideration in a
properly fastened jont is the twisting
force applied to a fastener, Table 7 offers
some suggested maximum torque values
for stainless stoel fasteners. This table is a
guide based on industry tests that pro-
vide maximum clamsing values with mii
‘mum risk of soizing, Tho values are based
fn fasteners that are dry of ary
lubricant—and wiped clean of chips and
foreign matter,
Most production lines are equipped
with assembly took that can be adjusted
