Design information for the Hilti Heavy Duty Sleeve Anchor HSL-3 in
Accordance with ACI 349-01 Appendix B.
1.0 SCOPE
This guide is intended to provide guidance on the design of anchorages with Hilti Sleeve
Anchors HSL-3 in accordance with ACI 349-01 Appendix B. Note this design varies from

The Hilti HSL-3 Sleeve Anchor is used to resist static, wind, and seismic tension and shear
loads in cracked and uncracked normal-weight concrete having a specified compressive
strength 2,500 psi ≤ f ′
c
≤ 8,500 psi (17.2 MPa ≤ f ′
c
≤ 58.6 MPa). The values of f ′
c
used for
calculations in this guide shall not exceed 8000 psi (55.2 MPa).
3.0 INSTALLATION
Installation shall be in accordance with Hilti’s printed installation instructions as included in the
anchor packaging.
4.0 DESIGN
The design shall be in accordance with this document and ACI 349-01 Appendix B. See Figure
4 for a worked example for static tension loading.
