Course details

Nut and Bolt Design in Fusion 360 is a practical, hands-on course focused on creating accurate, standards-based fasteners using AutoDesk Fusion 360. Learners will explore thread types, dimensions, and tolerances while modelling nuts and bolts from scratch using parametric design tools. The course covers sketching, revolved and extruded features, thread creation, and best practices for realistic and manufacturer designs. By the end, participants will be able to confidently design customisation nuts and bolts, apply them in assemblies, and prepare models suitable for 3D printing or manufacturing.

Questions and Answers

Q: You're modelling a suspension bracket joint and searching "Fusion 360 nut and bolt selection for shear vs tension load" because the joint sees combined clamp load and lateral shear. Space is tight, access is from one side only. Which fastener strategy best aligns with that duty?

Q: You're checking a library part and googling "ISO 898 bolt property class meaning for Fusion 360" to confirm material strength. Why does ISO 898 define both a minimum tensile strength and a yield ratio for metric bolts?

Q: During a late-night check you're searching "calculate bolt preload torque Fusion 360 steel bolt". An M10 property class 10.9 bolt needs 70% of proof load. Proof load is 830 MPa, tensile stress area is 58 mm², nut factor K = 0.2. What tightening torque are you aiming for?

Q: You're updating a model and searching "Fusion 360 bolt hole tolerance effect on clamp load" after the supplier drills holes at the upper limit of tolerance. What happens first when clearance increases but torque stays the same?
