        "note": "The rivets a joint needs = the design load ÷ the allowable load per rivet (rivet area × allowable shear × shear planes), rounded up to a whole rivet — always use the allowable (working) shear, the strength divided by the safety factor, not the raw strength. Add rivets for an even, symmetric pattern and respect the minimum pitch and edge distances; this count is the shear minimum, so still confirm bearing and tear-out for the plate.",
