Conceptual Stress analysis question
At work we are designing a spacer for a wall mount shroud. The shroud is attached to the structure by 4X bolts. The bolts go through the spacer holes and the back plate holes of the shroud (both holes are identical in size). The shroud is a two piece nylon split at the middle. When working on my checks I did check for bearing stress on the spacer holes but the senior stress lead told me to not having to check for it because its not in the load path. Can someone settle that debate?
