The strength of standard ISO metric steel bolts is readily identified by means of a numerical code.

The code is comprised of two numbers separated by a dot. This dot is not a decimal marker but is merely a means of separating the two parts of the code. The number to the left of the dot when multiplied by 100 provides an indication of the Ultimate Tensile Strength (in MPa) while the number to the right when multiplied by 10 times the preceeding number gives the Yield Strength (in MPa)

Example: 8.8
Tensile Strength
8 x100 = 800MPa

Yield Strength
8 x 8 x 10 = 640 MPa

Forces in clamping levers with eccentrical clamps

Forces in clamping levers with eccentrical clamps

The calculator provide the force in manual clamping levers. A friction value will be assumed for the axis of rotation and the circumference of the eccentric. This friction values will have an important impact at the result of the clamping force.

Dew point calculator

Dew point calculator

The dew point can be defined as the temperature from which the water vapor in the air begins to condense, producing dew, fog or, if the temperature is below 0 ° C, frost. For a given mass of air, with a certain amount of water vapor (absolute humidity), the relative humidity is the proportion of vapor contained in relation to the necessary to reach the saturation point, expressed as a percentage.

Dry bulb (Tdb) temperature (chart bottom or “x” axis) is just the measured indoor temperature measured using a standard thermometer.

Relative humidity (RH) is the amount of water in the air. We use the term “relative” humidity because the amount of water that a given volume of air can hold decreases as temperatures drop. (Think of it as cold air being more dense, squeezing water molecules out of suspension in the air.) So RH is the ratio of the actual water vapor pressure in the air to the water vapor pressure in air that is fully saturated (can’t hold any more water) at that same temperature.

Wet bulb temperature (Twb) measures the amount of water that can be taken out of the air (by evaporation) – the old “sling psychrometer” used a simple mercury thermometer with a wet cloth over the sensing bulb to measure Twb by swinging the thermometer around at the end of a string – or properly: a sling psychrometer. Really.

See the left-most curve, the 100% relative humidity line for a simple case – that’s air that is 100% saturated. So on the chart above, notice that on the left-most curve, the wet bulb temperature equals the dry bulb temperature – that is, when the air is fully saturated at 100% RH, no more air water can be evaporated out of the air.

Define Dew Point: Now the good part: the dew point (Tdp) is the temperature at which water vapor just starts to condense out of air that is cooling – for example when warm moisture-laden air contacts a cool surface inside of a wall cavity. Above the dew point the moisture stays in the air. At or below the dew point moisture leaves the air and in buildings, condenses on the cooler surface that the air is contacting. This also means that if you are measuring the relative humidity in a room, the RH number only has meaning if you measure the room temperature at the same time and location.

That’s why, for example, when measuring basement humidity we will get different RH measurements in the center of the room than we will find right against a cool foundation wall.

Dew Point Example: in the chart below, if the room temperature (Tdb) is 43 degC and the relative humidity (RH) is 20% (the curved line reading up from 43 degC) then the dew point is 15 degC (reading horizontally across to the left-most curved line and noting the dew point temperature scale set along that curve).

Dew Point Example 2: in the psychrometric chart given above, read up from 50 degC dry bulb temperature to the 20% RH curve, then follow the horizontal line from that point to the left to the outermost curve on the chart. 

To convert temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius use: Tc = (5/9)*(Tf-32) where Tc= the Celsius temperature and Tf= the Fahrenheit temperature.

Linear thermal expansion calculator

Linear thermal expansion calculator

The calculator uses the formula:

ΔL=L·α·ΔT

If is needed to calculate another material that is not included in the table, the calculator has a row (Other material) where the user can introduce the new linear temperature expansion coefficient (α).

Specific heat coefficient

Specific heat coefficient

The specific heat coefficient of a substance is the heat capacity divided by the mass. It is the amount of energy that must be added, in the form of heat, to one unit of mass of the substance in order to cause an increase of one unit in its temperature. The SI unit of specific heat is joule per kelvin and kilogram, J/(K kg).For example, at a temperature of 25 °C (the specific heat capacity can vary with the temperature), the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1 K (equivalent to 1 °C) is 4.179,6 joules, meaning that the specific heat of water is 4.179,6 J·kg−1·K−1.

Power Screw

Power screw calculator

The calculator provides the torque necessary in a power screw for raising or lowering a load. The collar torque friction is also calculated and it is included in the torque for raising and lowering. Self-locking and efficiency for raising are calculated. A self-locking screw will hold the load F in place without any application of torque.

Conversion from one hardness scale to another is only an approximate process. Differents types of hardness tests do not all measure the same combination of material properties. Because of the wide range of variation among different materials, it is not possible to state confidence limits for the errors in using a conversion chart.

Recommended radius and flap in sheet bending

Recommended radius and flap in sheet bending

The table shows the minimum, optimus and maximum recommended punch widht (V), radius (R) and flap (B) for bending a steel sheet. This values could be different depending on the bending machine used for bending the sheet, but we can take them as reference values.
