What are the design parameters for the Eye Bolt? ‘With the many experiments and testing done by engineers, Engineers have standardized the dimensional relation for the eye bolt design Al of these dimensions are depended on the Nominal diameter ofthe bot, which can be identited from the Standard Design cimensions ofthe screw threads chart mentioned below. Following isthe schematic diagram for the eye bolt design dimensions, 36d + bose u 44 032d d i i aE From the above dimensions, we can design an Eye Bolt based on the glven load need tobe ited. also, we need 10 have the permissible tensile stress ofthe eye bolt material,Now let us take an example of how we can solve an example prablem on the eye bolt diameter calculation and the ‘other parameters of the eye bolt Example Problem on for finding Eye Bold size and Eye Bold design parameters Problem Statement: An eye bolts to be used for lifting load of 60 KN. Find the nominal diameter of the bot, if the tensile stress Is not to exceed 100 MPa, Assume coarse threads, Answer: Given Date A static Lifting Load P = 604 = 60*10°N Permissible Tensile stress 0;= 100 N/mm? ‘Where dois the core diameter ofthe bolt size. now we can get the nominal diameter of the bolt from the standard ‘design screw threads table below. For the value of 27.6mrm, the next closest d value rom the table I 28,706, The respective nominal diameter for thls core dlameter dis 33 and the bolt size Is M33 bo Now we have 3, From this, we can calculate the remaining parameters ofthe Eye Bolt. The following image shows all the calculated standard design parameters for the eye bolt. ~~ i Red
