Question 4. [15 marks] Do this question or Question 5. Consider the following full face gasketed, flanged joint whose bolts have been pre-tensioned several days before fluid pressure is applied. The fluid is non corrosive. (a) [12] Calculate the required bolt forces according to AS1210 for an operating condition of 100°C and 0.86 MPa, and assess the adequacy of the selected bolts for this condition. (b) [3] Calculate the required thickness of the cover plate according to AS1210 for an operating condition of 100°C and 0.86 MPa. 76.0 mm 699 casket material is elastomer with fabric insertion. 11 6 bolts // M27 Grade 5.8 Core area for each: 415 mm² Design Shength: 100MPa at ambient 100 MPa at operating condition. S60 mm
