    Meaning of forces extracted from "bolt" element

    NRP99: that's what i would think but havent been able to verify. the stress would have to show the resultant but i am not sure the force components would. All my design cases are slip critical so both ends of the beam element are fully constrained (by an MPC) to their side of the joint. I am...

    Meaning of forces extracted from "bolt" element

    Hi All, Apologies if this has been answered before but I could not find it anywhere on the forum (or outside). Hope someone more experienced can help or send me in the right direction. When modelling a bolted connection in FEA it is common to use a very stiff beam element, then connect to the...

    Internal Curved Corners in BS 8888

    was that taken from somewhere in specific? I know for some standards you note TSC (theoretical sharp corner) but i havent been able to find an equivalent for BS8888. I think the image you posted looks clear as a detail but might be difficult to spot in a larger drawing.

    Internal Curved Corners in BS 8888

    Hi! I am having trouble figuring out how to dimension to where lines would intersect but a radius has been introduced. I drew extension lines, created an intersection point and used that to create the dimension. I am not sure what the correct way to indicate this dimension in BS 8888. Anyone...
