Q: Design of a riveted joint, is based on the assumption
  • A. Load is uniformly distributed among all the rivets
  • B. Shear stress on a rivet is uniformly distributed over its gross area
  • C. Bearing stress is uniform between the contact surfaces of the plate and the rivet
  • D. All option are correct
Correct Answer: Option D - Design of riveted joint, is based on the assumptions– (i) The load is carried equally by the rivets. (ii) The bearing stress of rivet and plate is distributed equally over the projected area of the rivets. (iii) Shear stress across a cross-section of a rivet is uniform. (iv) The friction among the plate is neglected.
