    Problem:

    How to check for bolt load calculations for longitudinal saddle load generated during bundle pullout?

    Solution:

    This can be done by specifying an external load equal to the bundle pullout load.
    See example below:

    Case 1: Without considering bundle pullout load 

    The friction factor = 0.3 is mentioned for a right anchored saddle.

    In the calculation report, the longitudinal saddle load for right saddle is computed as follows:

    Horizontal Longitudinal Load = friction factor x (total vertical load on saddle 2)

    = - 0.3 x (reaction due to weight of equipment for the loading case on saddle 2 + weight of saddle 2)
    = - 0.3 x (817.3 + 159.8) = - 293.1 daN, negative sign as the reaction is acting to the left

    So the bolt shear load is calculated as below:

    Max. shear = RaHL/Sb/nb = 293.1/324.3/4 = 0.226 daN/mm2 = 2.26 N/mm2 = 2.26 MPa.

    Case 2: Considering bundle pullout load

    In the same model above, now an equivalent bundle pullout load = 1000 daN is applied axially towards
    right at the left tangent line:

    This extra load is now seen in the design report:

    Horizontal Longitudinal Reaction = -(293.1+1000) = -1293.1 daN 

    In the bolt calculation this is taken into account:

    Max. shear = RaHL/Sb/nb = 1293.1/324.3/4 = 0.997 daN/mm2 = 9.97 N/mm2 = 9.97 MPa.
