Anchor System Design (Can you allow for installation of M20 anchors to work at an embedment depth of 500mm or 600mm?)
My design for an anchor system is limited to using M20 anchors. Using your PROFIS software I have found that the anchor system will work for M20 anchors at 500 or 600mm embedment depths. However, your software only allows for embedment depths between 90mm and 400mm. My question is can you allow for the installation of M20 anchors at embedment depths of 500 or 600mm?

Thank you for your enquiry, Profis Engineering software follows EC2 Part 4 as the design code with the limitation of the embedment depth of 20xd for post installed bonded anchors coming from EC2 Part 4 Section 1.3 Fastener dimensions and materials
