I am currently modeling bolted connection in steel beams. I am using ABAQUS 6.4. When I try to write me input file I get the following error message.

"Some normals of the bolt section surface for the following bolt loads do not form an acute angle with the bolt axis."

What does this mean and how do I fix it. Thanks.
