Hello Peers,
I am wroking on a project, where I am using a bar element as a reprsentation of bolt shank which connects the two CNRB's of bolt head and holes respectively. Even I have created a circular pattern of nul beam elements. Can anyone guide me which contacs shall I use between the beam element and the null beam elements to simulate a bolt joint. Thanks in advance. 🙂

Hi @kein_roboter,
You can probably use a wide range of contacts for this. *contact_automatic_beam_to_surface, *contact_general etc.
