FEA - Results Understanding Help and Bolt Calculation

Hello everyone,

I'm running a FEA Static simulation and i need some help for understanding the results that came up:

 

1) At part FR-2759805 , from the one face of the sheet metal i get a small Factory of Safety, whereas at the opposite side is much bigger. Can this be true?

For contacts I have Separation between the surfaces of these parts that come in contact.

Bolts,washers and nuts have bonded contacts between them and between the parts.

 

2) How can i see if the bolts can afford the load? And therefore to be able to choose bigger or smaller ones.

 

 

I'm looking forward to hearing from you and waiting for your replies!

Andreas

 

PS. Attached you can find the assembly and 2 images of the stress analysis.
