with threads included in the shear plane.

B. Slip – critical (friction type) connections are to be provided at braces vertical connection
as noted in the design drawings. For slip-critical connections tighten bolts by the direct
tension indicating device method. Use the indicating devices as directed by the
manufacturer and in accordance with Paragraph 8.d.4, Direct Tension Indicator
Tightening, of the Specification for Structural Joints using ASTM A325 or A490 Bolts in
accordance with ASTM F959. Inspect connections to check tension as well as snug-
tightness of plies.

C. When assembled, all joint surfaces, including those adjacent to the bolt heads, nuts, or
washers, shall be free of burrs, dirt, and other foreign materials that would prevent solid
seating of parts.
