When does PDMS use Length attribute to get the bolt length?

  • It needs to use nstdblength, because it takes half the length from the boltref of each flange and they are not neccessarily identical.
    So if the length of flange 1 sbol is 3" and the length for flange 2 sbol is 3.1/2" then the bolt length for the joint should be 3.1/4".
    Just taking length of Sbol 3" would be too short and 3.1/2"  too long
