The Load path for the given problem is from the point of
application of load to the points of supports(bolted region of the
bracket)
The topology also doesn’t cater for the space required for
attachment of bolts on the base plate.
‘Inspire’ aids us to visualize the load path for any given structural
problem and helps us take modeling decisions based on that.
