This reference book is designed to serve the needs of engineers, technicians, designers, and technologists concerned with standards, materials, and elementary formulas for the selection, procurement, and quality control of fasteners. The intent is to dispel some of the puzzles and to minimize distinct frustration over the bewildering maze of fastener options. No special knowledge of mechanics or metallurgy is required since the material consists of basic definitions, properties, and examples of calculation suitable for design, manufacturing, or sales office. In addition, this book should be of use to students and teachers in technical schools establishing design and industry.
