A NEW FASTENING STRATEGY IS DESCRIBED FOR SIMULTANEOUS CONTROL OF TORQUE AND ANGLE WITHIN LIMITS DERIVED FROM BASIC JOINT DATA. THE STRATEGY CONTAINS NUMEROUS PROVISIONS FOR AVOIDANCE OF NEEDLESS REJECTS. FURTHERMORE, DYNAMIC GAGING OF THE TORQUE-ANGLE PATH PRIOR TO EXECUTING THE FINAL ADVANCE ALLOWS FOR DETERMINATION OF OPTIMAL TARGETS THAT MAY VARY FROM RUN TO RUN. THIS ELIMINATES THE LOW-TENSION BIAS ASSOCIATED WITH PRIOR TECHNIQUES. USING EXPERIMENTAL DATA, AN EXAMPLE IS FULLY WORKED IN FORMING TORQUE-ANGLE WINDOWS. IMPLEMENTATION DATA IS ALSO PRESENTED WITH NORMAL AS WELL AS ABNORMAL PARTS, EMPLOYING ELECTRIC AS WELL AS AIR TOOLS.
