I'd love the module to have a general cleat sketch with the dimension notation as per the green book, it will make this more user friendly. Any chance of a two column bolt option in the future?
Yes you are correct, thanks for pointing this out. What we probably should have said is that typically this is 20mm + at least the minimum edge distance being 1.5*bolt dia. However, this module as default uses the recommended edge distance values from Table 2.2.4 of the design of structural steel hollow section connections (Blue) book. For M20 bolts this is 35mm, which means 20+35=55mm.
It's been a long 4 months, great work Greg

Hi Kahuna, thanks for your response. We'll look into the possibility of these.
5:36 1.5*20 + 20=50mm not 55
