Strong-Bolt Characteristic Tension and Shear Design Values for Normal-Weight or Lightweight Concrete over Metal Deck
  1. The information presented in this table is to be used in conjunction with the design criteria of ACI 318 Appendix D, except as modified below.
  2. Concrete compressive strength shall be 3,000 psi minimum.
  3. For anchors installed in the soffit of sand-lightweight or normal-weight concrete over metal deck floor and roof assemblies, as shown in Figure A, calculation of the concrete breakout strength may be omitted.
  4. In accordance with ACI 318 Section D.5.3.2, the nominal pullout strength in cracked concrete for anchors installed in the soffit of sand-lightweight or normal-weight-concrete-over-metal-deck floor and roof assemblies Npn,deck,cr shall be substituted for Npn,cr . Where analysis indicates no cracking at service loads, the normal pullout strength in uncracked concrete Npn,deck,uncr shall be substituted for Npn,uncr.
  5. In accordance with ACI 318 Section D.6.1.2 (c), the shear strength for anchors installed in the soffit of sand-lightweight or normal-weight concrete over metal deck floor and roof assemblies Vst,deck shall be substituted for Vsa.
  6. Values applicable to both the lower and the upper flute, see Figure A.
  7. Minimum distance to edge of panel is 2hef.
