Step 4: Steel strength Anchor and connection between anchor and channel profile.
ESR-3520 section
4.1.3.6
Combined tension and shear loads (Interaction)
Anchor and connection between anchor and channel (Anchor a3) The interaction
check for steel failure of the channel requires the ratio (factored load acting on the
anchor element/anchor element or anchor-channel connection design strength) to be
checked using Equation (44) in ESR-3520. V

Step 5: Steel strength local flexure channel lip and flexure of channel
ESR-3520
section 4.1.3.2.2
Channel lip strength in tension: ESR-3520 Section 4.1.3.2.2 requires a check to made
to determine if the clear distance between two T-bolts (s
chb
) is > the parameter 2(b
ch
),
where bch corresponds to the channel width. Values for bch are given in Table 8-1 of
ESR- 3520.
If schb is < 2(b
ch
), the value for N
sl
given in ESR-3520 Table 8-3 must be reduced by
the parameter calculated using Equation (5) in ESR- 3520. Calculate nominal tension
strengths (N
