&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;text-decoration:underline;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Problem:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:60px;"&gt;Why the calculation of bolts is set by default on the dialog and then imposed by the code to calculate the section in the background thread ? Are there regulatory elements that warrant to leave the choice to the user for the calculation of the nuts and bolts of the brackets?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:90px;"&gt;&lt;img alt=" " src="/resized-image.ashx/__size/490x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-41/3632.5.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;text-decoration:underline;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Solution:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;The default option in AutoPIPE Vessel is to consider the section at &amp;quot;Tensile stress&amp;quot; area.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;There is also nothing specified in the code for the use of a pitch of 3 mm for a bolt diameter greater than 24 mm (recommended Good Practice).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="padding-left:60px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;A new feature has been logged TFS-D103129:&amp;nbsp;Bolting area used in ASME for flange calculation. This feature will print out a message when a calculation in ASME used the bolting area option &amp;quot;Tensile stress&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
