Lengths
For screws of nominal lengths longer than those for which L
GH
and L
BH
values tabulated in this table and for screws
over 1 inch in diameter, the miximum grip gaging length L
GH
and the minimum body length L
BH
of the screws shall be
determined as follows:
L
GH
= L - L
T
L
BH
= L - L
TT
where L = nominal length, L
T
= minimum thread length, and L
TT
= maximum total thread length.
