Additional Bolting Items
Each type of bolt can have further material associated with it, such as washers, nuts, locking nuts and isolation tubes. The BLTREFs of the bolt SPCOMs point to SBOLT elements. SBOLTs have the attribute BITEMS, which is a word array with up to 25 elements. Each word represents a BTYP selector for a further bolt SPCOM in the Bolt Specification, such as NUT, LNUT, WASH or ISOL. This generates a further selection of material from the Bolt Specification.
Consider the following example extracted for a single bolt diameter in a Bolt Specification.
