    This document discusses riveted joints, which are permanent fastenings commonly used to join steel sheets in boilers and storage tanks. It describes different types of riveted heads and several common riveted joint configurations, including single and double riveted lap joints and single and double riveted butt joints. Key terms used in riveted joints like pitch, row pitch, and diagonal pitch are also defined. The advantages of riveted joints include low cost and durability, while disadvantages comprise reduced strength due to holes and higher labor costs compared to welded joints.

    RIVETED JOINTS

    Sub Topics:

    • Different types of riveted heads.


    • Single riveted lap joint.
    • Double riveted chain lap joint.
    • Double riveted Zig-Zag lap joint.
    • Single riveted single strap Butt joint.
    • Single riveted double strap Butt joint.
    • Double riveted double strap Butt joint.
    • Double riveted double strap Zig-Zag Butt joint.
    Introduction of Riveted Joints:
    • Riveted joints are permanent fastenings and
    riveting is one of the commonly used method of
    producing rigid and permanent joints.

    • Manufacture of Boilers, storage tanks etc…


    involve joining of steel sheets, by means of
    riveted joints.
    Rivets as permanentjoints:
    • Often small machine components are joined together to form a larger
    machine part. Design of joints is as important as that of machine
    components because a weak joint may spoil the utility of a carefully
    designed machine part.
    • Mechanical joints are broadly classified into two classes viz., non-
    permanent joints and permanent joints.
    • Non-permanent joints can be assembled and dissembled without damaging
    the components. Examples of such joints are threaded fasteners (like
    screw-joints), keys and couplings etc.
    • Permanent joints cannot be dissembled without damaging the components.
    These joints can be of two kinds depending upon the nature of force that
    holds the two parts. The force can be of mechanical origin, for example,
    riveted joints, joints formed by press or interference fit etc, where two
    components are joined by applying mechanical force. The components can
    also be joined by molecular force, for example, welded joints, brazed
    joints, joints with adhesives etc.
    Rivet:
    A rivet is a round rod of circular
    cross -section. It consists of two
    parts…Head & Shank
    Riveting:
    • Riveting is the process of forming a riveted
    joint.
    • For this, a rivet is first placed in the hole drilled
    through the two parts to be joined. Then the
    shank end is made into a rivet head by applying
    pressure, when it is either in cold or hot
    condition.
    Different types of Riveted Heads:
    • Various forms of rivet heads, used in general engineering
    works and boiler construction and as recommended by
    Bureau of Indian Standards, are shown in Fig…
    • The standard proportions are also indicated in the figure.
    • Snap head
    • High button head
    • Pan head
    • Cone head
    • Round top countersunk head
    • Flush countersunk head
    • Flat head
    • Truss head
    Important terms used in riveted joints:
    • Few parameters, which are required to specify arrangement of
    rivets in a riveted joint are as follows:
    Pitch: It is the distance between the centers of the adjacent rivets
    in the same row. It is denoted by ‘p’ and usually taken as 3d,
    where d is the rivet diameter.
    Row Pitch: It is the distance between two adjacent rows of rivets.
    It is denoted by ‘pr’ and is given by, pr = 0.8p, for chain
    riveting pr = 0.6p, for Zig-zag riveting.
    Diagonal pitch: This term is usually associated with zig-zag
    riveting and is denoted by ‘pd’. It is the distance between the
    centre of a rivet in a row to the next rivet in the adjacent row.
    Margin or marginal pitch: It is the distance from the edge of the
    plate to the centre of the nearest rivet. It is usually taken as
    1.5d, where d is the rivet diameter. It is denoted by ‘m’.
    Back Pitch: This is the shortest distance between two successive
    rows in a multiple riveted joint. (usual symbol pt or pb )
    Types of riveted joints and joint efficiency:
    • Riveted joints are mainly of two types
    1. Lap joints
    2. Butt joints
    • Lap joints: The plates that are to be joined are brought face to
    face such that an overlap exists, as shown in fig. Rivets are
    inserted on the overlapping portion. Single or multiple rows
    of rivets are used to give strength to the joint. Depending
    upon the number of rows the riveted joints may be classified
    as single riveted lap joint, double or triple riveted lap joint
    etc. When multiple joints are used, the arrangement of rivets
    between two neighboring rows may be of two kinds.
    Single Riveted Lap joint:
    Double Riveted chain Lap joint:
    Double Riveted Zig-Zag Lap joint:
    • Butt Joint: In this type of joint, the plates are
    brought to each other without forming any overlap.
    Riveted joints are formed between each of the plates
    and one or two cover plates. Depending upon the
    number of cover plates the butt joints may be single
    strap or double strap butt joints.
    Single Riveted single strap Butt joint:
    Single Riveted double strap Butt joint:
    Double Riveted double strap Butt joint:
    ADVANTAGES

    -Rivets are a cheap alternative to welding and metal adhesives

    -Rivets are manufactured in different shapes and structures according to the needs of
    construction. They are available in different materials that are chosen by the engineers
    for their steel construction design.

    -Solid steel rivets are highly durable. They are resistant to corrosion, moisture and even
    chemicals.

    -Inspecting and maintaining welded structures takes a longer time than rivets. Welded
    joints need a closer look to find out the wear and figure out the life of the joints
    DISADVANTAGES

    -Due to holes plates become weak.

    -Labor cost is more.

    -Overall cost of riveted joints is more.

    -They have more weight than welded joints.

    -Riveting process creates more noise.

    -Stress concentration near holes.
