The single Shear Strength values listed within the Machinery's book are from the American National Standard Hardened Ground Machine Dowel Pins table that are designed within ANSI/ASME B18.8.2-1995: According to the notes, prior versions of ANSI/ASME B18.8.2-1995 had listed double shear load minimum values and had specified minimum single shear strength of 130,000 psi. Moreover the notes say that one should see ANSI/ASME B18.8.2-1995, Appendix B for a description of the double shear test. I would suggest you look at ANSI/ASME B18.8.2-1995 to verify where and how they are coming up with their calculations for determining the maximum single shear and force numbers. Now, to calculate simple shear: Stress = Force/Area Stress = 130,000 psi (given in the notes) Circle Area = 3.14157 x R^2 (Dowel Pin) Where R = radius or .5 (for a 1" diameter pin) Rearrange the equation. 130,000 x (3.14157 x .5^2) = 102,101.025 or 102,000 lbs Modified by Kelly Bramble at Sun, Jan 13, 2008, 08:37:40
