What is the recommended wrench clearance according to TEMA Table D5?

[minoroctave]

I am trying to obtain minimum recommended wrench and nut clearances from TEMA Table D5, but I don't really know what quantity from this table I should be using.

That table is directed more at minimum dimensions for bolts spacing designs with a standard box end wrench rather than for wrench clearance determination. A good general reference for wrench clearances for all styles of standard wrenches is the "Machinery Handbook" published by the Industrial Press, if you can locate one. This book is a basic reference requirement in the US for any Mechanical Engineer.

thanks, I found the handbook. I just want to make sure if C is the wrench clearance.
