A wizard of some sort to be able to define a solid modeled bolt to have a preload. Basically the wizard does all the work behind the scene to change the material model to temperature dependent orthotropic with the thermal contraction primarily in the axial direction, apply the thermal load that would yield the intended preload. Basically similar to what is done with current bolt wizard for beams.
