9 Bolt clearances are a major detailing issue with this connection because of the need to

get either a hand wrench and socket or impact wrench into the connection in order to
tension the bolls for 8.8/TB category.
Section 7.7 of DESIGN GUIDE 1 (Ref. 12) provides the relevant dimensions of wrenches
for installing bolts. The worst case scenario is that impact wrenches are to be used in
which case the clearance required is a maximum. In general, dimension A in Figure 6
should be 65 mm to accommodate all wrench options for M24 bolls, 55 mm for M20 bolts
(Ref. 12).'
