Bolt Calculations 1 Year, 2 Months ago Karma: 470  
I have been looking through the SimpleBoltCalc.xls in the Repository. The calculation incorporates a co-efficient of friction of 0.2 (this is the usual steel on steel value I guess). I have also been reading Steel Designer's Manual (UK Version) (US Version)
In here the coefficient of friction used is 0.45 'the permitted value for untreated surfaces', apparently. I am often dealing with bolt slip issues but I am intrigued as to how such a high value can be justified. Have anyone got any suggestions?
