Force on beam node

Force on beam node

Force on beam node

(OP)
Hello to all forum,
I use a beam to simulate a pretension of bolt.
In particular I made the nut and bolt head with rigid body and connect the two control node with a beam.
After I give a temperature variation on beam and I can simulate the pretension.
After I try to evaluete the contact force supervising the node beam.
I try to use RF function but in the preload force direction the rf are 0 the same for TF.
How Can see the force on node of a Beam?

RE: Force on beam node
