Installing Kit A and Kit B anchor plates
The following tools are required to install the anchors and the anchor plates:
•KitA
— setting tool (Hilti HST 3/4 in., manufacturer part#329821)
— 28 mm (1 1/8 in.) open-end wrench
•KitB
— 24.5 mm (1 in.) open-end wrench
Procedure 65
Installing Kit A
1 Insert the anchors into the holes. Use the manufacturer’s setting tool to
install each anchor flush with the surface of the concrete. The setting tool
is required for the Hilti anchor.
2 Locate the two mounting plates for each column over the anchors. Place
an adapter bushing into each of the plate holes and insert a 19 mm (3/
4 in.) diameter bolt and flat washer as shown in Figure 118 on page 350.
3 Level the plates with shims. Leave the stack of shims exposed until all
leveling has been completed (this will allow the addition or removal of
shims if necessary).
4 If the installation must meet CALIFORNIA OSHPD, tension proof load
testing is required on 50% of the anchor bolts. These anchors must be
tested to 24 020 N (5400 lb) tension and 122 J (90 ft-lb) torque. Any
failure requires testing of all remaining anchors.
