Jim,
Your response addresses the reason I posted above. I'm looking for "specific" applications for which the data is not readily available.
My intention is to test the shear strength with the bolt in tension, as would be normal with a shear bolt under "most" circumstances.
As far as the 2 point shear of which you refer too, my past tests indicate this will equate to an approximate increase of 105% of a single point shear, provided the shear bolt is the same diameter at both shear points.
Jim and All,
Anything else we could take into consideration with either this test or a subsequent test to help someone out?
