| These values are suitable for
design to BS 5950-1 and can be used without further reduction for
comparison to factored loads. Bearing resistances for different
plate thicknesses can be calculated by scaling the values in
proportion to the thickness, but should only be used where the
distance from the centre line of the hole to the end of the plate
is greater than 2d. Combined tension and shear should satisfy the following equation:  |

These are design values for use with BS EN 1993-1-8, and a partial safety factor of γM2 = 1.25 has already been applied. Bearing resistances should be calculated from BS EN 1993-1-8, Table 3.4, taking d as the nominal diameter of the bolt. These design resistances are suitable for design to BS EN 1993 and can be compared directly with design loads. The quoted bearing resistances assume k1 = 2.5 and αb = 1.0. For different arrangements the bearing resistance should be calculated using the expression in Table 3.4 of BS EN 1993-1-8, with d as the nominal diameter of the blind bolt. Combined tension and shear should satisfy the following equation:  |

These capacities are suitable for design to BS 5950-1 and can be compared directly with factored loads. Bearing resistances for different thicknesses can be calculated by scaling the values given in proportion to the thickness, but should only be used when the end distance is greater than 2d. Bolts subject to combined tension and shear should satisfy the following expression:  |
