How to Find Shear Force on a Bolted Connection | FEA for beginners | SolidWorks Simulation

On this video we will go over bolts connection set up for simulation and find the shear resultant force on each bolt.
Hope you enjoy it!
Learning Outcomes from this video:
• Setup assembly for bolted connection simulation
• FEA (Finite Element Analysis)
• Shear Force
• Resultant Force
• Stress and safety factor
• Read and modify results
• Presenting FEA results in a desired format
Thank you for watching! Enjoy!

Glad to hear it!

Please give me some advice
I have a problem with the simulation of screws, more precisely with one data that I need to enter, it is the PRE-LOAD data.
I know what the bolt preload is and I have a table for these values.
example
for M10 8.8
Suggested Bolt Load 28.1 KN
Approximate Torque 56.3 Nm
But when I enter the bolt preload value, it gets unrealistic results.
Can you tell me from which table to use for the metric thread.
WHERE AM I GOING WRONG?
thank you

Dont you need to set a pre load for the bolts? Whenever I try doing the same as you, my software crashes when visualizing the bolts resistance result
