Single Bolt Table

Bolt List (BLIST) elements are administrative elements used to group together Standard Bolt Elements (SBOLT). Use the Single Bolting tab of the Bolt Table Utilities window to add or delete an administrative BLIST element. The Bolt Name field is populated by default with the Unset.

Note: The Single Bolt Name cannot contain spaces.

A new BLIST element is created in the database hierarchy and the entry is displayed in the Bolt Name pane. Further entries can be added to the Available Bolt List as required. If a bolt list is to be deleted, a Warning window is displayed:

Click Add Bolt to add the single bolt list to the bolt elements part of the Bolt Table Utilities window. With an entry highlighted, populate the Single Bolt List part of the Bolt Table Utilities window to set attributes values for the SBOLT element.

The caption above Single Bolt Elements states "Available Sbolt’s in ..". The caption changes depending on the selected entry in the list.

Number of bolts are used when calculating bolt length, extra length caters for extra threads beyond the end of the nuts and non std bolt length.

Additional attributes or Bolt Items can be added to the SBOL element, for example for washers, nuts and so on. To add additional attributes or bolt items, click Add Item to add a row to the Bolt Items list. By default, the Item Length is set to 0mm and the Item Name is Unset.
