General | Force needed to deform rivets?
Here's the practical part: The force to squeze a rivet for an actual riveted joint: run some samples. The rivet hardens as it deforms and spreads so the force could go up a little out of proportion. I'd think the actual heading force would range 2 to 4 times the initial deforming force. 6 tons? Sounds fishy.
