bolt
• The bolts are fully pretensioned to create a clamping force between the connected parts.
• This clamping force develops frictional resistance between the connected parts.
• The frictional resistance allows the joint to withstand loading without slipping into bearing against
the body of the bolt, but the bolts must still be designed for bearing.

• The faying surfaces (planes of friction) require special preparation.

1. Slip-critical connections.
2. Connections where the bolts are subject to direct tension loading
(bolts need to be pretensioned but surfaces do not need to be treated,
i.e. need not be slip-resistant).

• The tension control bolts are pretensioned with a tension-control bolt installation wrench that has two
coaxial chucks.
• The inner chuck engages the splined end of the bolt.
• The outer chuck envelopes the nut.
• The two chucks turn opposite to one another to tighten the bolt.
• The splined end of the tension control bolt shears off at a specified tension. Splined end of bolt

DTI
Feeler Gage
Another way to pretension a bolt is through the use of direct tension indicators (DTIs).
These washers have protrusions that must bear against the unturned element.
As the bolt is tightened the clamping force flattens the protrusions and reduces the gap.
The gap is measured with a feeler gage.
When the gap reaches the specified size, the bolt is properly pretensioned.
It is important to note that DTI washers can only indicate the minimum tension required to close the gap.
