loads on flange bolt patterns

[ Home ][ Forum Archive ] [ Active Engineering Forum ]

I am looking for help in determining the loads on bolts
anchoring various jib cranes to the floor. Each crane
bolts to the floor with, say, 6 or 8 or 10 bolts on
a bolt circle, and with the loaded crane there is a
net force and torque/moment on the bolt pattern.
This is statically indeterminate.
Are there any shortcut methods for determining the
load on each bolt, and particularly the worst case
bolt load?
