Hello,

In HyperMesh constraint means that the component's degree of freedom are constrained. It can be assumed as constrained with ground.

 

For bolting you can use 'rigids' panel or 'connectors' panel in '1D' page.

 

You can aslo refer to this document regarding this https://altairuniversity.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Student_Guide_251-278.pdf 

 

Also please refer to this document regarding connectors https://altairuniversity.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/HM_1D_Extract.pdf

 

Thank you
