In connection design, geometry control is done with hole diameter, bolt spacing, bolt edge distance, and weld thickness values. Geometry control of steel connections is carried out accordingto the Design, Calculation and Construction Principles of Steel Structures CYTHYE 2016 (GKT and & YDKT) and , AISC 360-16 (ASD and & LRFD) regulationsor EN 1993-1-1 codes.
Minimum horizontal and vertical bolt distance spacing control
Minimum distance control to element edge
Horizontal and vertical edge distance control with maximum bolt spacing
Weld thickness control
There are deficiencies in geometry controls within the connection design report. Necessary precautions can be taken for plates and bolts with these deficiencies.

Solutions:
The distance spacing between the relevant bolts can be increased.
The corresponding plate size can be increased.
The relevant bolt diameter can be reduced.
The connecton plate thickness can be increased.
The corresponding weld thickness can be increased.
