Table 2: high-strength bolts
Table 1: shop fabrication and assemblyTolerances for cutting, edge preparation and assembly in the shop. Consult it to check the accuracy of the cut face and the misalignment of members.Appendix 2 High-strength boltsTolerances for high-strength bolted joints. Consult it to check the gap at the faying surface and the offset of the bolt holes.Appendix 3 WeldingTolerances for welds. Consult it to check the fillet size and throat thickness, the reinforcement height and the undercut.Appendix 4 Columns and beamsTolerances on the fabrication accuracy of columns and beams. Consult it to check the length, the section dimensions and the bow of a member.Appendix 5 Site workTolerances on the accuracy of erection on site. Consult it to check the lean of the building, the storey height and the level of the beams.
