Bolt calculations can get very involved and complicated so this calculation offers a great quick check on allowable loads on a bolted steel joint.

Yes it a great quick check on a bolted joint. Not sure where all the tightening torques come from they seem a little on the high side to me. Well Done Billy!

Simple and easy way to check the bolt calculations. Good job. Just a little curious where the bolt shear values come from, is there perhaps a reference?

Good running check and nice to see in Metric!
