MDESIGN Seminar

Force determination in
Bolt fields
in accordance with VDI 2230 Sheet 2

With this online seminar, you will learn how to significantly improve the reliability and efficiency
of your multi-bolt connections in accordance with VDI2230 Sheet 2, while at the same time
at the same time taking costs and safety requirements into account.
The training teaches you everything you need to know about the design and calculation of
of highly loaded bolt arrays.

 

 

These topics await you...

Multi-bolt connections
according to guideline VDI 2230 sheet 2

Learn how to calculate and safely design multi-bolt connections methodically and in accordance with the guidelines.

Safely evaluate loads on bolt fields

How do different types of load affect the overall connection? Find out more about the latest findings and solutions.

Tightening and assembly methods

In this seminar you will learn about assembly situations and the influence of tightening methods on bolted joints.

Securing multi-bolt connections

Securing methods and their importance for the reliability and safety of your multi-bolt connections.

The seminar deals specifically with the VDI 2230 Sheet 2 guideline.
You will gain an insight into the guideline-compliant design
and determination of forces in bolt fields. Through practice-oriented examples
you will learn the special features of the determination of forces and the
the relationship between VDI 2230 Part 1 and Part 2.
