Basic types of joints with the use of considered previously connecting elements are connection by a bolt, screw, stud, and also pipe joints. These types of joints (except of a pipe) have the three depictions: structural, simplified and conventional.

The structuraldepiction suits all structural elements of the parts of a joint.

The simplifieddepiction is used for details without chamfers, a thread is represented along the length of a bar of a thread part, a clearance between a bar and an opening is not shown.

A conventionaldepiction is used in those cases, when the diameter of a bar on a drawing less than 2 mm. State Standard 2.315:2008 is used for simplified joints.

Pipe joints are done only structurally.

A bolt joint consists of a bolt – 3, a nut –5 and a washer –3 (fig.4.21, а). There are two parts in the bolt joint also (d₁ and d₂ – their thickness).

At the structural drawing of a thread connection opening diameter equals 1.1×d_n (where d_n is a nominal diameter of a bolt thread). Actual working length of a bolt is found as a sum of the followings parameters: L=d₁+ d₂ +H_n +S_w + 0.25×d_n,

where d₁ and d₂ – the thickness of connecting parts, H_n– the thickness of a nut, S_w – the thickness of a washer, d_n – the nominal diameter of a thread. The received sum is rounded to the nearest from the resulted standard row of workings lengths – L at table 4.9.

Table 4.9

At the simplified drawing of a bolt joint for the calculation of working length of a bolt - L the dependence is used:

L=d₁ + d₂ +1,3×d_n,

where d₁ and d₂ – the thickness of connecting parts, d_n – the nominal diameter of a thread.

The parameter 1,3×d_n approximately takes into account the structural sizes of the thickness of a washer, the height of a nut and stocked on length of a bolt. For the implementation of the simplified drawing of a bolt joint the followings correlations are used:

D=2´ d_n; D_w=2,2´ d_n; H=0,8´ d_n; S_w=0,15 ´ d_n; h=0,7´ d_n.

The structural drawing of a bolt joint is presented in figure 4.21, a and it is simplified – in figure 4.21, b.
