        "note": "A rivet group carries load by shear across its cross-section: capacity = the rivet area (π/4·d²) × the shear strength × the number of rivets × the shear planes. A rivet in single shear is cut on one plane; in double shear (the centre plate of a lap-and-cover joint) it is cut on two, so it carries twice. This is the shank-shear limit only — compare it with the bearing limit (see /v1/bearing-capacity); the joint is governed by whichever is smaller.",
