This project will investigate analytically and experimentally the               failure mode of a tension member connection when the bolts are                  closely concentrated on the end of the connecting members.                                                                                                      Recent structural failures have indicated that the conventional                 method of analysis and design does not always provide sufficient                safety.  This project will investigate the behavior of the                      tension member connection taking into account all possible                      variations of the parameters involved, in order to arrive at the                best analytical method to predict the behavior of the bolted                    connection.
