STD = Standard Hole

SSLT = Short-Slotted Hole oriented transverse to the line of force
SSLP = Short-Slotted Hole oriented parallel to the line of force
OVS = Oversize Hole
LSLP = Long-Slotted Hole oriented parallel to the line of force
LSLT = Long-Slotted Hole oriented transverse to the line of force

CONNECTION TYPE (SC-1, SC-2, N, X)

D
SC-1

SC-1 = Slip-Critical Connection, slip is a serviceability limit-state

SC-2 = Slip-Critical Connection, slip is a strength limit-state

N = Bearing-Type Connection with threads included in the shear plane
X = Bearing-type connection with threads excluded from the shear plane
