Diameter of rivet given safe tensile load that plate can withstand Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Rivet Diameter = Pitch of Rivet-(Tensile Load/(Tensile Stress*Thickness of Plate))
D_rivet = p-(P_load/(σ_t*t_plate))
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Rivet Diameter - (Measured in Meter) - Rivet Diameter is offered from 1/16-inch (1.6 mm) to 3/8-inch (9.5 mm) in diameter (other sizes are considered highly special) and can be up to 8 inches (203 mm) long.
Pitch of Rivet - (Measured in Meter) - Pitch of Rivet is defined as the distance between the centers of adjacent rivets that hold together the parts of a built member.
Tensile Load - (Measured in Newton) - Tensile Load is the stretching force acting on the material and generally results in tensile stress and tensile strain in the specimen.
Tensile Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile stress can be defined as the magnitude of force applied along an elastic rod, which is divided by the cross-sectional area of the rod in a direction perpendicular to the applied force.
Thickness of Plate - (Measured in Meter) - The thickness of plate is the state or quality of being thick. The measure of the smallest dimension of a solid figure: a board of two-inch thickness.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Pitch of Rivet: 20 Millimeter --> 0.02 Meter (Check conversion here)
Tensile Load: 0.012 Kilonewton --> 12 Newton (Check conversion here)
Tensile Stress: 0.173 Megapascal --> 173000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Thickness of Plate: 12 Millimeter --> 0.012 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

D_rivet = p-(P_load/(σ_t*t_plate)) --> 0.02-(12/(173000*0.012))

Evaluating ... ...

D_rivet = 0.0142196531791908

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0142196531791908 Meter -->14.2196531791908 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

14.2196531791908 ≈ 14.21965 Millimeter <-- Rivet Diameter

What are rivets used for?

Rivets are ideal for supporting shear and tensile loads, as well as watertight applications. A rivet is a mechanical fastener consisting of a smooth, cylindrical shaft with a head. Upon installation, the end of the shaft expands, creating a “shop head” and fastening objects in place.

How to Calculate Diameter of rivet given safe tensile load that plate can withstand?

Diameter of rivet given safe tensile load that plate can withstand calculator uses Rivet Diameter = Pitch of Rivet-(Tensile Load/(Tensile Stress*Thickness of Plate)) to calculate the Rivet Diameter, The Diameter of rivet given safe tensile load that plate can withstand formula is defined as a chord that runs through the center point of the rivet. It is the longest possible chord of any rivet. The center of a rivet is the midpoint of its diameter. Rivet Diameter is denoted by D_rivet symbol.
