Longitudinal pitch Formula Elements

Variables
Longitudinal Pitch of Rivet Joint
Longitudinal Pitch of Rivet Joint is defined as the distance from the center of the rivet to the center of the next rivet in the same row measured on the gauge line.
Symbol: pl
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Diagonal Pitch of Rivet Joint
Diagonal Pitch of Rivet Joint is the distance between the center of a rivet in one row and that of the nearest rivet in the next row in riveted joints having two or more rows of staggered rivets.
Symbol: pd
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Diameter of Rivet
Diameter of Rivet is somewhat equal to diameter of the hole in which rivetting is to be done. It is the diameter of the shank length of a rivet.
Symbol: d
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
