    Damaging: Permanent Joints

    Uploaded by

    Krishna Murthy
    Joints can be either permanent or temporary. Permanent joints like welded or riveted joints cannot be disassembled without damaging the components, while temporary joints like bolted joints can be disassembled without damage. Rivets are commonly used in ships, airplanes, and other structures and vehicles. Riveted joints have advantages like strength and ability to join dissimilar metals, but disadvantages like weakened material around rivet holes. There are different types of riveted joints classified by purpose, placement of joining members, type of rivets, and number of rivet rows. Design considerations for riveted joints include pitch, margins, number of rivets, and zigzag patterns.

    JOINTS

    Joints are classified into two groups:


    1. Permanent fastenings, and
    2. Temporary or detachable fastenings.
    Permanent joints are those fasteners, where the components can be
    disassembled only by damaging those components.

    Eg: Soldered, Brazed, Welded and Riveted Joints.


    Temporary or detachable joints are those joints which can be disassembled
    Without damaging the connecting components.

    Eg: Screwed (Bolted Joints), Keys, Cotters

    Applications
    Airplane

    Ships

    Buses
    INTRODUCTION
     Riveted joints have been widely employed in various engineering
    structures, such as ships, boilers, bridges, etc.
     The use of riveted joints has considerably been reduced due to the
    rapid development of welding techniques
     Rivets are the main kind of fasteners in light frames and thin sheet
    shells made of light metals and alloys such as aluminium
     Light alloys are difficult to weld
     The material of the rivets must be tough and ductile
     Usually made of steel, brass, aluminium or copper
     When strength and a fluid tight joint is the main consideration, steel
    rivets are used
    Advantages of Riveted Joints
     Riveted joints have high resistance against vibrational loads.
     Can join difficult to weld parts:

     Dissimilar metals
     Thin plates
     Joints that cannot be subjected to heating

     Riveted joints can be dismantled by cutting off the rivet heads.


     Quality control is easier
    Disadvantages of Riveted Joints
     Rivet holes weaken the working cross section of the joint.
     More metal is required for the joint due to the necessity of
    overlapping the joined plates
    RIVETED JOINTS
    Rivet is a short cylindrical bar with a head integral to it
    METHODS OF RIVETING

    COLD RIVETING Cold riveting process is used for structural joints


    Riveting is done at ambient temperature
    HOT RIVETING Hot riveting is used to make leak proof joints.
    Rivets are initially heated before applying force
    Riveting may be done by hand or by a riveting machine.
    TYPES OF RIVETED JOINTS
    Riveted joints may be classified according to:
     The purpose for which it is used

     Strong joints – strength is the prime requirement


     Tight strong joints – strength & leak proof
     Method of placing joining member (eg. Lap and Butt)
     The type of rivets employed (eg. Solid and tubular)
     The number of rows of rivets used (eg. Single, double, triple)
    TYPES OF RIVETED JOINTS
    Depending upon the way in which the plates are Connected
    1. Lap joint, and
    2. Butt joint
    Lap Joint
    A lap joint is that in which one plate overlaps the other and the two
    plates are then riveted together.
    Butt Joint
    Cont…
    A butt joint is that in which the main plates are kept in alignment
    butting (i.e. touching) each other and a cover plate (i.e. strap) is placed
    either on one side or on both sides of the main plates. The cover plate is
    then riveted together with the main plates.
    Butt joints are
    1. Single strap butt joint, and
    2. Double strap butt joint.

    IMPORTANT TERMS USED IN RIVETED JOINTS
    Pitch: This is the distance between two
    centers of the consecutive rivets in a single
    row. (usual symbol p)

    Back Pitch: This is the shortest distance


    between two successive rows in a multiple
    riveted joint. (usual symbol pt or pb)

    Diagonal Pitch: This is the distance


    between the centers of rivets in adjacent
    rows of zigzag riveted joint. (usual symbol
    pd)

    Margin Or Marginal Pitch: This is the


    distance between the centre of the rivet
    hole to the nearest edge of the plate. (usual
    symbol m)
    CAULKING AND FULLERING
    •Caulking and fullering are used to make tight contact between metal parts
    •Both are operations used in riveting to ensure complete tightness of parts
    •Caulking is done with the help of a caulking tool which is a blunt chisel
    •In fullering flat chisel is used.

    Surface finish obtained is less compared to It is gives clean surface finish.
    Less risk of damaging the plates.
    fullering. Thickness of tool is equal to the
    More risk of damaging the plates. thickness of the plate
    thickness of Tool is about 5mm

    Joints Efficiencies (in %)
    Single Riveted 50-60
    Lap
    Double Riveted 60-72
    Triple Riveted 72-80
    Single Riveted 55-60
    Butt (Double Strap)
    Double Riveted 76-84
    Triple Riveted 80-88

    IMPORTANT TERMS USED IN RIVETED JOINTS


    DESIGN TIPS
    • At least two rivets should be used for each joint to avoid
    relative turning motion
    • Arrange rivets in Zig-zag pattern when using 2 or more rows
    of rivets
    • Use equal diameter rivets in a particular joint
    FAILURE OF RIVETED
    A rivet joint may fail in the following ways:
    1. Shear of the rivets
    2. Crushing of the rivets and plates 3. Rupture of the plate in the section
    weakened by the holes

    Tearing of plate at edge

    Tearing of plate across the rows of rivets
