The contact surfaces shall be prepared to produce the required slip factor which shall generally be determined
by test as specified in Annex .
The following precautions shall be taken prior to assembly:
a) the contact surfaces shall be free from all contaminants, such as oil, dirt or paint. Burrs that would
prevent solid seating of the connecting parts shall be removed;
b) uncoated surfaces shall be freed from all films of rust and other loose material. Care shall be taken not to
damage or smooth the roughened surface. Untreated areas around the perimeter of the tightened
connection shall be left untreated until any inspection of the connection has been completed.
Surface treatment that may be assumed to provide the minimum slip factor according to the specified class of
friction surface without test are given in Table 18.

8.5 Tightening of preloaded bolts
851 General
Unless otherwise specified the nominal minimum preloading force Fic shall be taken as:
Fy0=0,7 fxs where fy is the nominal ultimate strength of the bolt material and A, is the stress area of the
bolt
as defined in EN 1993-1-8 and specified in Table 19. This level of preload shall be used for all slip resistant
preloaded connections and for all other preloaded connections unless a lower level of preload is specified. In
the latter case, the bolt assemblies, the tightening method, the tightening parameters and the inspection
requirements shall also be specified.
NOTE reload may be used for slip resistance, for seismic connections, for fatigue resistance, for execution
purposes, or as a quality measure (e.g. for durability).
