SubscriberHello.
I would like to use the symmetry tool in my model in the following way:
In this case, If I use the ‘Bolt Pretension’ function and my model is symmetrical, does the force I apply have to be divided by 2?
if my effort on a complete model is 11000N, in my case of symmetry and even if I use the "Bolt Pretension" I have to divide my effort by two. Is that correct?
Â
Thank in advance for your reply.

In Symmetry Analysis, there is need for dividing the applied load.
Thanks

Forces should be halved. So for half sym. half the force.
