      @@NistaDGB not these specifically, most beams use TC bolts, they are tightened until the tip of the bolt breaks at a certain tension. I’ve heard basically it tightens the steel together so tight it’s almost like it’s welded. But usually the ones that get welded are connected to the columns, those are usually full pins

    I don't mean to nit-pick. This is just some friendly advise but try flipping your wrench over. It looked like you pinched your finger a little bit in the beginning and that's because your holding your spud upside down.
