This article gives the minimal table-lookup method for bolt pre-selection: knowing only the maximum working load a single bolt carries — axial static load, axial dynamic load or transverse shear force — you can read the recommended nominal diameter (M4 and up) and the minimum property-class combination straight from the load-range table, a result in seconds, good for quick estimates on the shop floor and in technical discussion; for a precise calculation switch to the Kübler equation or the full VDI 2230 method.
