1 Linear interpolation not permitted
2 When combining multiple load adjustment factors (e.g. for a 4 anchor pattern in a corner with thin concrete member) the design can become very conservative.
To optimize the design, use Hilti PROFIS Engineering Design software or perform anchor calculation using design equations from ACI 318 Ch. 17 or CSA A23.3 Annex D.
3 Spacing factor reduction in shear, f
AV
, is applicable when edge distance c < 3h
ef
. If c ≥ 3h
ef
then f
AV
= f
AN
.
4 Concrete thickness reduction factor in shear, f
HV
, is applicable when edge distance c < 3h
ef
. If c ≥ 3h
ef
then f
HV
= 1.0.
If a reduction factor value is in a shaded cell, this indicates that this specific edge distance may not be permitted with a certain spacing (or vice versa). Check with Figure 2 and Table 5
(carbon steel) or Figure 3 and Table 19 (stainless steel) to calculate permissible edge distance, spacing and concrete thickness combinations.
