  Please take a look at the Cornell MOOC: A Hands-on Introduction to Engineering Simulations.
  
  There's an excellent workshop/example of a bolted flange within.Also, here's a tech tip from our Youtube channel about how to simulate bolted assemblies:

  For welded structures here's some good material for you:
  - Weld Stress Seminar by Peter Barrett
  - Our documentation on Spot Welds .
  Hope that all helps?
