Change grade of A325 bolts from 10.9 to ASTM A325

[joseph_hermogenes_042016]

Hi,

I'm trying to change the bolt grade of A325 from grade 10.9 to ASTM A325.

I had tried changing the 10.9 under material column in AS management tools/Table editor/AstorBase/SetBolts. But this do not work.

Your help is much appreciated.

Regards,

Joseph

A related question, I have created new bolts with the new ASTM F3125 designation with a grade of A325.

Everything works fine except when I review the joint design of the connections the bolts always fail with 0 kips. Is there a step I missed in the data base for this?
