Multiple choice

Rivets and bolts subjected to both shear stress $\tau_{vf_{cal}}$ and axial tensile stress $\tau_{tf_{cal}}$shall be so proportioned that the stresses do not exceed the respective allowable stresses $\tau_{vf}$and $\sigma_{tf}$and the value of $\left( \dfrac{\tau_{vf_{cal}}}{\tau_{vf}} + \dfrac{\sigma_{vf_{cal}}}{\sigma_{vf}} \right)$does not exceed

  1. 1.0

C Correct answer
Explanation

 As per IS : 800 - 1984 $\left( \dfrac{\tau_{vf_{cal}}}{\tau_{vf}} + \dfrac{\sigma_{vf_{cal}}}{\sigma_{vf}} \right) \le 1.4$
