Fatigue behaviour of bolted joints for rack structures
Abstract
Racking systems applied in logistics warehouses are built with thin steel sections that are joined by bolted connections. In fully automatic systems, these structures are loaded 7/7 days and 24/24 hours raising fatigue issues due to the cyclic nature of the resulting stresses. According to the current industrial practice, those bolted joints are tight with no torque control, leading to the concept of snug tight bolts, which behaves similarly to non-preloaded bolted joints. Eurocode 3 has no reference about fatigue rules of bolted connections between thin-walled cold formed steels. This paper aims at analyzing the fatigue behaviour of bolted (snug tight vs. preloaded) joints in order to provide fatigue design rules for possible update of Eurocode 3 existing rules. A significant fatigue testing program was performed to investigate the influence of different bolts arrangements, stress R-Ratios and bolt preloads, including snug tight, on fatigue life. The obtained results were analyzed under ASTM E739 procedure in order to obtain S-N curves. This work revealed an average fatigue strength of 114 MPa at 2E6 cycles for the snug tight bolted joints. Preloaded bolt joints presented an average fatigue strength of 108 MPa at 2E6 cycles. Discrepancies between S-N curves suggested by Eurocode 3 and fatigue data obtained experimentally were verified.
