What is Impact of Burrs on Bolted Connections about?

1) Small burrs around bolt holes are common and do not negatively impact the shear capacity of bolted connections that are not slip critical as long as bolts are tightened to the snug tight condition. 2) For slip critical connections, research showed that small burrs can actually increase slip capacity when bolts are fully tensioned, but large burrs make achieving proper tension difficult. 3) Proper tensioning of bolts in connections with burrs requires a systematic, incremental tightening approach to c
