For calculation purposes external force (Po) is always

positive and rotates boltgroup contrclockwise about it's
center (Xc,Yc). Eccentricity (e) is always positive as well. The
distance (lo) from boltgroup center to instantenious center
(Xo,Yo) can be negative but not less than -e.

 ECCENTRICALLY LOADED BOLT GROUP
ULTIMATE STRENGTH METHOD

This spreadsheet is using the

Y Instantenious Center of Rotation
Pu Py Method to determine shear capacity of
Input bolt group. This method is described in
Details LRFD Code (2nd Edition, Volume II, p.
(Xi,Yi)
8-28). In theory, the bolt group rotates
b
around IC, and the displacements of
CG (Xc,Yc) e each bolt is proportional to the
Px distance to IC. The load deformation
relationship of the bolt:
lo qi R=Rult(1-exp(-10D)0.55), where
ey Rult = fRn bolt ultimate shear strength.
mo di D = total deformation of the bolt
Ri
(inches), experementally determined
ex
IC (Xo,Yo) X Dmax = 0.34 inches.
Solving the system of three equilibrium
equations we can find location of IC
and ultimate shear force of bolt group.
Input Data: Spreadsheet Formulas: Please, be aware of possibly wrong
solution when instantenious center is
Shear force application: Px Py ex ey Xc = AVERAGE(Xi) too far from bolt group center.
Bolt locations: Xi Yi Yc = AVERAGE(Yi)
Single bolt shear capacity: fRn Xo = -losin(b) - mocos(b) + Xc
Yo = locos(b) - mosin(b) + Yc
Equlibrium equations: e = - (ey-Yc)cos(b) + (ex-Xc)sin(b)
qi = atan((Yi-Yo)/(Xi-Xo)) - p/2
(1) SRisin(qi) + Pusin(b) = 0 di = sqrt((Yi-Yo)^2+(Xi-Xo)2)
(2) SRicos(qi) + Pucos(b) = 0 dmax = max(di)
(3) SRidi + Pu(e+lo) = 0 Dmax = 0.34 inches
Di = Dmax(di/dmax)
Equations variables: Pu lo and mo Ri = fRn(1-exp(-10Di))0.55
