EN 14399 Specification
HIGH-STRENGTH STRUCTURAL BOLTING ASSEMBLIES FOR PRELOADING
Structural bolting in Europe comprises two technical solutions to achieve the necessary ductility of bolt/nut/washer assemblies. These solutions utilize different systems (HR and HV) of bolt/nut/washer assemblies, see table below. Both systems are well proved and it is up to the experts responsible for structural bolting whether they use the one or the other system.
