Can you please tell how to model double shear connection???

[@bimdrcongo]

thank you so much for sharing, insightful content

[@ideastatica_en]

Glad it was helpful!

Good day if the consultant insist that the forces should be applied on the Node so that a momentdue to eccentricity is generated what is the proper way Should it be on Node or on the Bolt thank you 🙏

[@ideastatica_en]

If you design a connection with a hinge (pinned connection) = in your global structural model, there is no moment in the node, only a shear force, then in IDEA StatiCa you set the position of the shear force to bolts (center of rotation in the hinge).

If in the global model you have bending moment in the node (semiridig or rigid connection) then you dont move the shear force position in IDEA StatiCa and leave it in the node.
In other cases when you want to elaborate and achieve a perfect alignment, you can use the manual set of position of shear force and thus moment diagram shift.
