Fastener connection

(OP)
Hi, Mates

I'm new for the mechanica so far, I'm using the Fastener connection, by the basic feature, we dont have the advanced license. i got the question about the pre load, in the real life the friction will stop the lug moving, so i dont know how well is the fastener connection defined under Mechanica, is there any preload applied based on the bolt size,?? should i apply by myself, and add on the friction as well??

thanks for taking look
