Bearing stress in a fastened joint is calculated as the load divided by

  • A.The fastener's cross-sectional area
  • B.The sheet's full width times its thickness
  • C.The fastener's circumference
  • D.The fastener diameter times the sheet thickness

Answer: D

The projected area of the hole is used rather than the true contact area, which makes bearing stress a nominal quantity compared against empirically derived allowables. It frequently governs a thin-sheet joint rather than fastener shear.
