Transverse pitch Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Transverse pitch?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
pt=(2pl+d3)2-(pl2)2
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
pt=(232.2mm+18mm3)2-(32.2mm2)2
Next Step Convert Units
pt=(20.0322m+0.018m3)2-(0.0322m2)2
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
pt=(20.0322+0.0183)2-(0.03222)2
Next Step Evaluate
pt=0.0222532644296916m
Next Step Convert to Output's Unit
pt=22.2532644296916mm
LAST Step Rounding Answer
pt=22.2533mm

Transverse pitch Formula Elements

Variables
Functions
Transverse Pitch of Rivet
Transverse Pitch of Rivet is defined as the distance between two consecutive rows of rivets in the same plate.
Symbol: pt
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
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.
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.
sqrt
A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number.
Syntax: sqrt(Number)
