Popis: The authors focused on the high strength bolted friction grip joints with countersunk head bolts which can finish the surface of the connection plate flat smoothly and prevent from functional depression due to corrosion. Firstly we carried out Finite Element Analysis in order to evaluate the contact pressure of double shear connected friction joints with countersunk heads varying the angle of countersunk head. Secondly, we have compared the slip strength of the joints which has the optimum countersunk head angle with that of the joint with the normal high strength bolt through the standard slippage test considering variation of plate thickness and the yield strength of the base and splice plates. As a result, it was concluded that the slip strength of the joints with countersunk heads exceeds the required design slip strength which has specified in JSHB and that its slip coefficients is about 10% lower than that with normal head bolts.
