Back to bolts...
My point was that an super strong bolt can overtress the attached
structure without any indication that it has happened - until a
fitting breaks or something like that.
This fellow comes to a different conclusion than I usually do.
THe last line "When in doubt make it stout" will appeal to those
who think an airplane can be built so strong that it can not be
broken.
But I trust that you, of all people, will know better than that.
Very informative article on bolts - grad 5 vs grade 8.
