Hello,
I want to find the reaction force in bolt.

You can request Gridpoint forces.
Reactions forces are available when there are constraints.
Hi @Prakash Pagadala
I am working on project in which i need to find stress generated in bolt. Bolt is between the cover and housing. When bolting torque is applied I want to find stress generated in bolt.
How to solve this problem
Thanks in advance.
Hi Teja,
You can either do a pretension analysis and output Pretension bolt force. The PRETBOLT command can be used in the I/O Options or Subcase Information sections to request output of pretension force/adjustment values in the pretension bolts for all pretensioning and pretensioned subcases.
Or
use GPFORCE to output if you are just running a linear static analysis.
hello @Prakash Pagadala
I have requested PRETBOLT but how to check reaction force. File format is .pret how to check results
Teja,
You can open the file in any text editor to get the forces.
