Modern instruments are of two types: the more usual pivoted blades have a rivet or screw connection between the cutting ends and the handle ends; spring shears have a C-shaped spring connection at the handle ends.
In addition, a simplified design equation is proposed to evaluate the ultimate shear strength of CFSSWP based on the strength of the screw connection obtained from a sub assemblage shear strength test.

The FE model considers the non-linear geometrical effects and boundary conditions by including the adjacent screw connection and in some surfaces meshed with contact elements.
Generally the screw connection between the board and CFS skeleton frame, which experience shear, dictates the behaviour and strength of such panels.
These specimens were specifically designed to reach the strength as governed by the strength of the screw connection between the board and the CFS framing and avoid all other modes of failure, ahead of this.
The screw connection configuration was selected to facilitate yielding along the length of the brace, i.e., to avoid net section fracture of the strap through the screw holes.
Anesthetized rats were fixed in a stereotaxic apparatus (Stoelting, Wood Dale, IL, USA), with the head flat, the skin was gently removed, and holes were drilled in the skull for implantation of electrodes and for reference/ground screw connection.
Grip the back of the stud flange near the screw connection point with your fingers in order to give it support and then drive the screw.
An additional test with a screw-glued connection was made for comparison.
Medially, the screw engaged with the most distal hole of the reconstruction plate similarly to a screw-nut connection.
