The f3125 specification is a consolidation and replacement of six astm standards including.
A325 f1852 a490 and f2280.
The research council on structural connections is a non profit volunteer organization whose research projects serve to provide safety.
If you are working with a325 structural bolts on a regular basis we strongly recommend purchasing a copy of the astm a325 specification from astm international.
This specification contains 4 inch series bolting grades.

The bolt is stressed up to the proofload value and if there is no deformation elongation or fracture then the bolt is deemed to have passed.
1 proofload is the published number that full size headed bolts are tested to.
The bolt torque table below provides information such as tension torque tpi for the heavy structured bolts against its corresponding bolt sizes ranging from 1 2 to 1 1 2.
