How to extract reaction force on a rbe2 of a bolt if the SPC is applied on other rbe2 fixing point?

I want the reaction forces on the rbe2 of the fixing point between beige part and grey part. The assembly is constrained on the yellow SPC on the grey part.

Thanks for the help.

    i don't remember if ELFORCE will work for RBE2. But you could just request SPCFORCE and get the reaction forces in the SPC directly.

     

    Additionally you could request ELFORCE for the bar element, if any exists in your bolt representation.
