Abstract
Both the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction (CISC) Handbook of Steel Construction and the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) Manual of Steel Construction discuss prying action in tee-type and angle-type connections subjected to tensile force, but no guidance is provided for determining the prying force in bolted steel circular flange connections. However, such connections are very common in leg members of guyed lattice communication towers. To determine the magnitude of the prying forces in such connections, an experimental investigation was conducted on 10 bolted steel circular flange connections. On the basis of the test data, it is proposed that for use with equations in the CISC handbook and AISC manual, the length of the flange tributary to each bolt (bolt pitch) be taken as the circumference of the bolt circle divided by the number of bolts.Key words: bolt pitch, bolted connections, circular flange, prying action, tensile force.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
