  Is it possible to create more than 1 load step in Discovery Live Refine?
  
  Example: 1st LS bolt preload, 2nd LS locking the bolt and adding pressure.
  
  Thanks

  Hi Michele Camposaragna
  
  Multistep loading is not yet possible in Discovery, Discovery automatically runs a two-load step solution when pretension bolts are included in the model. The first load step applies the pretension, the second load step locks the bolt and applies the other structural loads.
  
  Regards.
