The distance between the centers of standard, large, and slot holes, s, is not less than 2²/3 times the nominal diameter, d, of the fastener. According to AISC 360-16, the distance between centers of standard, oversized, or slotted holes of 3D is preferred. (s ≥ 3d)
This control is done automatically and reported in bolted connections.

...

The distance from the standard hole diameter center to the edge of the element, in any direction, cannot exceed the values given in AISC 360-16 Table J3.4.
The distance from the center of the large or slotted hole to the connected part edge cannot be less than that required for a standard hole to an edge of a connected part plus the applicable increment, C₂, from AISC 360-16 Table J3.5.
This control is done automatically and reported in bolted connections.
