Shear Behavior of Self Drilllng Screws Used in Low Ductility Steel
Abstract
The results of 264 shear tests conducted on self drilling screws are presented. The tests conducted include single screws in single shear, two screws in single shear, and single screws in double shear. The performance and behavior of self drilling screws in low ductility steel are compared to the performance and behavior of screws in normal ductility steel. Results are compared to the 1986 AISI specification with 1989 addenda, and the recently approved AISI specification for self drilling screws which will be included in the next edition of the AISI code. Also, new equations are presented for the tilting/bearing limit state for screws in single shear, and the bearing limit state for screws in double shear.
