PROFIS Engineering Suite

PROFIS Engineering Suite is an intuitive cloud-based software that makes the design and analysis of structural connections faster and easier than ever before.

PROFIS not only designs anchors, but calculates and analyses different types of fasteners, including steel-to-concrete, concrete-to-concrete, and steel-to-masonry connections, as well as complete solutions for railings and base plates that are more reliable, more optimised, and compliant with regulations.

The software also includes application-specific technical training to help you get the most out of PROFIS.

How cracked concrete can influence anchor design.
How cracked concrete can influence anchor design.
This webinar is designed to build a shared understanding of cracked concrete and its role in anchor design. It explains what cracked concrete is, why it matters for safety and performance, and the assessment methods defined in both EU and ACI code frameworks. The content also outlines key design provisions for anchors in cracked concrete and demonstrates how these principles are applied within PROFIS Engineering.

How soon after casting an R.C base can drilling and setting of resin anchors take place.
Hi I am working on a project involving pipe supports on new R.C pads. The anchors in the attached designed are to be cast in a new recently poured pad. Our client needs to drill and fix them as soon after casting as possible. What is the minimum time after pouring is drilling and setting permissible please?
