    Why do bolts work loose?

    I agree with the post above. Torque specifications must be adhered to. Over-tightening can strip the bolt and cause issues. I'd use a locking compound on the bolt thread and Nordlock washers and/or locking nuts.

    Looking for a Engineering Design Firm (Scotland)

    You could search for design engineers in Glasgow on Linkedin? It comes up with people and companies. I think you need to connect with the engineers before you can send them a message.

    Thread Galling Issues

    We sometimes use Duplex with 316. You can get fixings with a pre-applied low strength thread locking compound.
