Bolt Model Assumption in FEM Modeling

Hi,

I have a query regarding FEM modelling.

I attached a connection detail as well as my modeling method (assumption), modeled as Finite Elements.

So my question is how to assume in modelling that there are bolts located at certain nodes between the bottom end plate and bottom beam flange.

If you have any suggestion regarding my modelling, please do advise.

This is my first time modeling FEM on connections.

Please see attached file for details.

Thank you in advance.
