Minimum pitch |
2.5 times of nominal diameter of the rivet |
Maximum pitch for |
|
(i) any two adjacent rivets (including tacking rivets) |
32t or 300 mm, whichever is less |
(ii) rivets lying in a line parallel to the force in the member. (a) in tension (b) in compression |
16t or 200 mm, whichever is less 12t or 200 mm, whichever less |
Where t = thickness of thinner outside plate.
Minimum pitch = 2.5φ
