Which Anchors to use?

Hi, I have a timber running along Masonry solid wall of 7.5N strength. The timber run is supporting floor joists. I need Anchor bolts to connect the timber runs to the masonry wall. The bolts are required to resists shear of 6kn and tension of 2kn per bolt. Please advice which bolts can be used and what should be the embedment length?

Masonry,Timber Joist,Anchor Bolts

Thanks for your question, please find attached the technical data sheet for the HY270 resin injection mortar which is the most widely tested product of ours into masonry. If you can match your unit against one we have tested then you can simply read off the Design Resistance values from the table. Note the data also provides the minimum spacing and edge distances based upon fixing into the face of the unit. If you are not able to match your unit then you would need to test onsite in accordance with your local codes to establish the allowable resistances.
