    AS 1252: 2016 Part 1 & Part 2. A very brief overviewFrom the desk of Peter Hobson

    Part 1

    This 2016 issue of AS 1252 significantly raises the Quality bar over the 1983/1996 standards, and when product is supplied that adheres to it, will result in higher quality structural assemblies.

    Our technical team has a number of technical bulletins available and are also available to answer in depth questions, however this article is purely to give a simple overview of key matters.

    The most significant aspect of the 2016 standard is the addition of a mandatory assembly test. The assembly test requires all components of a structural assembly (bolt, nut and washer) to be tested together. Where the nut is on the actual bolt (and not a mandrel) and the rotation is made. Test results of the assembly test give the truest indication of how that batch/

    lot/heat number of fasteners will perform in the field. It is a gruelling test that is designed to test many quality aspects of the structural assembly to provide a statistical indication that the batch is fit for purpose. Five samples are required to be tested from each diam x length x batch. Most product seen in the Australian market supplied to the 1983/1996 standard will not consistently be able to pass this test.

    The assembly test is time consuming and specialised calibrated equipment is required to carry out the test to the standard and therefore adds extra cost to the product. Testing must be done at an ILAC accredited laboratory. In fact, a lot of the increased cost of supplying product to the 2016 issue is in the QA testing and subsequent test reports that are mandatory. Hobson Product conforms completely to Part 1.

    Part 2: Independent Verification Testing

    Unfortunately, Part 2 does require a number of tests that are not practical or commercially sensible. It was envisaged an amendment would be issued to rectify these issues,

    however this has not occurred to date. Hobson Engineering introduced an expectation of independent testing on 1983/1996 product and is again leading the industry with the 2016 standard. We have adopted the sensible anticipated amendments to Part 2 which we refer to as mandatory tests or fit for purpose. Our position is backed by AEFAC and Swinburne University (documents can be provided). In brief, we carry out all current testing requirements of Part 2 with the following exceptions:

    Dimensional Testing

    This has already been done in Part 1, and the assembly test ensures product is fit for purpose and ensures major dimensions such as AF are correct via the socket test.

    We do however measure the washer dimensions, as these are not confirmed with the assembly test and are very important for the assembly to perform correctly.

    Surface Integrity Testing

    An extremely expensive test on HDG items. The coating has to be

    removed by either acid or sand blasting, both of which alters the dimensions of the item. If there are critical surface discontinuities in the product, the assembly test will expose them.

    Hardness Testing eight samples of washers and nuts

    We test three pieces, as eight pieces is illogical when we are testing only three of the bolts. Again, any issues are highlighted in the assembly test. Remember that these items are sold as assemblies, so eight assemblies would need to be sent to the ILAC lab instead of three. Considering the volume AS 1252 product is sold, this is a significant cost and offers no improvement in quality confidence.

    Hobson Test Reports Anti Fake feature and improved traceability over the requirements of the standard

    Every AS 1252: 2016 bolt product we sell has a unique trace code to ensure full traceability once the product leaves the carton. This trace code can be entered into our website at ANY time in the future to recall all the supporting documentation. This is a Hobson initiative leading the way in supporting market confidence in Structural Bolting.

    To ensure that the correct product is tested (very easy to fake), we show a photo of every bolt head on each Part 2 verification report. See below.

    Product may be ordered to part 1, but it is HIGHLY recommended by Hobson Engineering, AEFAC and ASI that all product be ordered to Part 1 & Part 2 (mandatory, fit for purpose).

    Engineering

    Steel construction washers (SC-washers)Based on the leading Nord-Lock wedge-locking technology, the Nord-Lock SC-washers are specially designed for steel construction applications and to fit EN 14399: 2005 K2 8.8 HR Structural Assemblies.

    Nord-Lock SC-washers are designed to directly replace standard washers according to EN 14399. The torque requirements have to be adjusted accordingly to specific torque guidelines for HR bolts.

    MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

    1 Bumax Ultra is a grade that is tailor made to solve customer needs in regards of strength, ductility, fatigue and wear resistance. Values in the table are typical strength values, but even higher strength levels can be achieved on some designs and dimension, up to tensile strength levels of 2500 MPa.

    The data shown in the table are typical and are representative for the majority of standard fasteners. May be subject to alterations, depending on size and design.

    It is important to understand what happens with the fastener material when operating at elevated temperatures for prolonged times. Properties such as thermal expansion, strength, ductility, corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance are affected by high temperatures and its effect on the jointed application must be considered from case to case. The diagram to the right shows typical yield strength losses that instantly occur in the material when exposed to high temperatures. Property changes during prolonged service at elevated temperature must also be considered. Gas corrosion at high temperature is totally different compared to wet corrosion at lower temperatures. Furthermore, changes in mechanical properties might gradually change over time due to ageing and creep deformation. Ageing that occurs in all stainless steel material over time is enhanced by high stresses in the material in combination with high temperature or temperature fluctuations, and can lead to ductility losses in the material. Creep deformation is a slow plastic deformation under the influence of mechanical stresses. It can occur as a result of long-term exposure to stresses that are still under the yield strength of the material and the effect increases at higher temperatures.Bumax HE and Bumax HEP are high temperature resistant grades optimized for high temperature conditions and are much more stable against ageing, gas oxidation, creeping and strength losses compared to regular stainless steels.

    An increased brittleness at subzero and especially cryogenic temperatures is characteristic of all steels and metals in general. Some steel grades become more brittle than others at cryogenic temperatures below -150C. This depends mainly on microstructure, chemical composition and internal stress. Austenitc stainless steels has generally better impact strength at very low temperatures than Duplex, Ferritic and Martensitic stainless steel.

    To understand the environment and application requirements is therefore crucial. Your local Bumax sales representative will help you selecting the right material.

    PRELOAD AND TIGHTENING TORQUEPreload is needed to keep the jointed part together and function correctly for long periods of time, resisting both static and dynamic loads.The combined stresses in the joint should normally not exceed the yield strength of the fastener. In practical use the recommended pretension vary between 50-80% of the yield strength Rp0.2. Tightening torque is needed to achieve the necessary preload. The recommended tightening torque depends on many parameters such as friction, fastener strength, thread diameter, screw type and tightening procedure. The recommendation use for Bumax products are based on a targeted preload of about 65-70% of the yield load and a friction coefficient of 0.14-0.16, which can only be obtained by a burr-free surface using high quality lubrication. Recommended preload and tightening torque data can be found at www.bumax.se.
