Applied Loads
Define the external forces and moments applied to the system. You can specify multiple load cases or components.
Load Definition
Each load consists of a point of application (X, Y, Z), force components (FX, FY, FZ), and moment components (MX, MY, MZ).
- Point of Application: Forces applied away from the group centroid will induce moments on the bolt group. The tool automatically handles the coordinate transformation.
- Forces: Axial and shear loads applied at the specified point.
- Moments: Pure couples or torques applied at the specified point.
