Axial Load on Screw given Unit Bearing Pressure Formula Elements

Variables
Constants
Axial load on screw
Axial load on screw is the instantaneous load applied to the screw along its axis.
Symbol: Wa
Measurement: ForceUnit: N
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Number of Engaged Threads
A number of Engaged Threads of a screw/bolt are the count of threads of the screw/bolt that are currently in engagement with the nut.
Symbol: z
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Unit bearing pressure for nut
Unit bearing pressure for nut is the average pressure acting on the contact surface of the thread in a Screw-Nut pair.
Symbol: Sb
