ASTM International released ASTM STP 1487 - Structural Integrity of Fasteners Including the Effects of Environmental and Stress Corrosion Cracking: 3rd Volume.

ASTM STP 1487 contains 11 peer-reviewed papers that provide information on the structural integrity of fasteners including the effects of environmental and stress corrosion cracking.

The four sections cover:

  • Fatigue and Crack Growth Experimental Techniques - Three papers cover the development of a fastener structural element test for certifying navy fasteners material; experimental crack growth behavior for aerospace application; and influence of cold rolling threads before and after heat treatment on the fatigue resistance of high strength coarse thread bolts for multiple preload conditions.

  • Design/Environmental Effects - Two papers examine the relationship between the tightening speed with friction and clamped-load; and the optimum thread rolling process that improves stress corrosion cracking (SCC) resistance to improve quality of design.

  • Fatigue and Crack Growth Analytical Techniques - Three papers describe current analytical techniques for fatigue and crack growth evaluations of fasteners; a numerical crack growth model using the finite element analysis generated stress field; and the resistance of high strength, fine thread bolts for multiple preload conditions.

  • Design Consideration - Focuses on the comprehensive, nonlinear three-dimensional (3-D) finite element model to simulate a displacement controlled for riveted structure; state-of-the-art fatigue crack growth analysis techniques that are used in various industries to damage tolerance evaluation of structures; the material stress state within the thread of the bolt; and on each parameter affecting the structural integrity of a bolted joint.
