Here are a couple of simulation examples created using Solidworks, this time it was a cantilever beam. I initially simulated a force of 50000 Nm. on the beam to see the displacement , I then tested the bolts to see if they would fail. With a force 50000Nm. all the bolts failed.


50000Nm. force was added to the end of the beam


Displacement results/visual


Bolt check - all 4 bolts fail


Simulation run again this time 10000Nm. force was added to the end of the beam


Displacement results/visual


Bolt check - all 4 bolts OK
