Problem Description

After running the collision test the number of faults in the command line is higher than the number in the collision dialog.

Reason

Modeller errors regarding bolts.
The Autocad Modeller is a simplified display with arcs shown as faceted lines.

Steps to Resolve

Option 1 Using Solid Kernel

Set all bolts in the ProSteel Properties to solid kernel

Please note: the collision test will take longer

Option 2 Collision test without bolts

Collision test tab Values - untick box -Get al collisions
Tab Options - untick box - Bolts

Option 3 Ignore Modeller errors

We checked a lot of modells with such modeller errors regarding bolts
These collisons are smaller than 0.0001 mm and can be ignored
