Bolted connections are one of the most common points of root‑cause failure in steel structures. Although the overall strength and reliability of a steel structure depend heavily on the performance of its connections, these critical details are often treated as secondary and may receive limited attention during design.
In this webinar, Civil Engineer Patrick Walsh will examine the most frequent design and installation errors in bolted connections that can lead to unexpected failures. The session will highlight how issues such as improper bolt pre‑tensioning, incorrect surface preparation, and misunderstandings of bolt behaviour can all significantly increase the risk of structural failure.
