Abstract
The paper presents comparative analysis of experimental and numerical investigation of sliding bolt connections on the freight wagon for the transport petroleum products. In order to show comparative results all tested load cases is in accordance with to TSI standard and norm EN 12663: 2010 standard. The aim of this analysis is to show that results of stresses obtained by measuring with strain gauges placed on a wagon prototype and stresses obtained by FEM calculation gives good agreement. According to comparative analysis of obtained and measured stress values, it has been concluded that modelled bolted connections in the manner shown in the paper really transfer loads to other parts of the wagon construction and can be used to analyse complex structures exposed to different types of loads.
