Shall bolting for permanent covers(manhole cover, handhole cover)be hydro test together with vessel?. If reply is "YES", how we identified bolts and nuts?.

As for identification, pick up one of the items in your hand and say aloud "Hey, are you a bolt?" If you get no response, you are holding a nut.

Once you have proven that, you can renew the bolting every time you open the cover if you wish and it might not be a bad policy.
