In steel construction, bolted connections are a sort of structural joint that is used to link two or more structural elements. A type of threaded fastener known as a bolt has a male thread and a preformed, complementary female thread, similar to nuts. To build a bolted connection, it is crucial to understand the bolt value and joint strength concepts, which are further explored.
Step-1: Hide Bolts from your CAD geometry
Below are the steps used in Hide:
Note: Generally, Triple CONS will form if the Edge is shared with more than two surfaces in the model.
As you check the geometry you can observe that the folding of the part is happening in the bolt areas of the sheet metal. (Refer to the area marked in the circle in the image given below)
Now we will see how to convert Triple Cons into two Double Cons.
Step-2: Releasing the Triple Cons
Release the triple con using the Release tool in CONS. (As shown in the below image)
In order to select the region by box selection perform: Shift + left click + Mouse drag-
In order to deselect the region by box selection perform: Shift + Right click + Mouse drag-
