The bolts in Fig. 1 are 20 mm in diameter, pilch 1.5 mm, made from cold-drawn 8740 steel. Machined threads; K = 3.85. The steel cylinder is 100 mm ID. Fluid pressure varies continuously from 0 to 14 MPa. Assume the end plates are rigid. Find the value of initial force Fo if the bolts are to have an Fs equal to 4.
