Creating an U-shaped clip connection
Wonder how to create advanced connection topologies and connection types? Here you will find a tip for how to model a one-bolt connecting plate made of a U-shaped clip (bent plate).
In such cases, the best practice is to use a stiffening member operation and find a suitable cross-section that can be edited to a proper shape.
Then you have to change the cross-section according to the following pictures. This type of cross-section can be then easily transformed into a bent plate.
The following video shows how to place the element and connect it to other joint parts.
Other possibilities are importing it from a 3D CAD drawing or composing it using stiffening plate operations.
