What is bolted High-Strength Friction Grip Joints? Explain in details of bolted High-Strength Friction Grip Joints with step by step procedure and example of application

Bolted high-strength friction grip (HSFG) joints, also known as preloaded bolted joints or tension control (TC) bolted joints, are a type of connection used in steel structures where the bolts are tightened to a specified preload to create friction between the connected members. The joint relies on the friction generated between the mating surfaces to transfer the applied loads. Here […]
