In contrast to raised head point fittings the countersunk alternatives enable a flat and even surface. But there is an uncertainty amongst many engineers regarding the correct structural design of those systems. Present paper collects and arrays design influencing parameters. A lot of them are incorporated in an automated calculation tool using the programming interface of a multipurpose FEA software. Extensive calculations enable an estimation of sensitivity to respective parameters. Further material behavior of synthetic intermediate layers is described with remarks on hyperelasticity and viscoelasticity. Finally effects of the bolting torque are presented.
