Design Example of Single Strong-Bolt Anchor in Tension and Shear Near an Edge

Information on this page has been updated since the printing of the 2007 Anchor Systems Catalog (C-SAS-2007).
To view the specific changes made to this page in detail, visit Product Information Updates.

Determine if a single 1/2 inch diameter Strong-Bolt torque-controlled expansion anchor with a minimum 5 inch embedment (hef = 4 1/2 inches) installed 4 inches from the edge of a 12 inch deep spandrel beam is adequate for a service tension load of 1,000 lb for wind and a reversible service shear load of 350 lb for wind. The anchor will be in the tension zone, away from other anchors in f'c = 3,000 psi normal-weight concrete.

 

Reference the appropriate tables in this catalog for Strong-Bolt performance values as determined from testing in accordance with ACI 355.2 and ICC-ES AC193.
