1. The document summarizes the design calculations for a screwed connection between two steel parts using 4mm diameter screws that are 11mm long.
2. Key calculations checked include bearing resistance due to shear, net section resistance due to shear, pull-through resistance to axial tension, and pull-out resistance to axial tension.
3. All calculated resistances were found to exceed the maximum calculated forces from a structural analysis model, therefore the screw connection design is deemed safe.
