Hi everybody,


This is my first message in the forum. I've been using proe for a few months now and promechanica only for a few weeks. I'm having a problem to simulate the following situation:


I'm trying to simulate an assambly composed by 3 parts. You can think of them as three extruded parts with quite the same size. They all three will be joined by two bolts, both of them passing through all three parts. The one in the middle just fills the gap between the two others.


I've tried to use bolts in Mechanica, but it seems you can only join two parts with it, not three. How could I do it? I just want to make sure that the loads close to the bolt holes are quite realistic.


Thanks in advance,





Guillermo
