To ensure standard coarse-threaded nuts possess equal shear failure resistance compared to bolt tensile strength, the nut height (h) should roughly equal________________?
Show answer Hide answer
Answer: A. 0.4 times
Explanation
To match shear failure resistance to bolt tensile strength, standard coarse-threaded nut height is typically designed around 0.8 times the bolt diameter.
