The 0.2 % proof stress of the bolt Rp0.2,min for the strength grades is specified in the DIN EN ISO 898-1 and DIN EN ISO 3506-1 standards.

For example, the nominal value of the 0.2 % proof stress is calculated for strength grade 10.9 as
Rp0.2,min = 10 x 9 (both numbers of the strength grade multiplied) x 10 N/mm2 = 900 N/mm2.
However, the minimum value of the 0.2 % proof stress, which is Rp0.2,min = 940 N/mm2, is used in the VDI 2230 calculation.
