Hello, What are the pullout capacities in kN of the HILTI HDA-P M10 undercut anchors in both tensile and shear loading in different concrete strengths. I want to make sure I'm looking at the right tables, particularly with respect to cone failure. Also, has there been any research done in defining the load capacities where ...

I'm trying to design an anchor but I'm getting the error in the title: It is not possible to calculate the example you created, due to an error in finite element analysis (analysis: Singularity) Can you please help me understand how to solve this issue

I ma looking for some rock anchors for a design to connect some meshing to some piles on an excavation to minimise rock fall. Max. loading would be about 6kN on the anchors and the offset would be about 70mm from the surface of the concrete. I have used the software but there were a number of potential options which passed in ...

We have a project that had specified M24 x 575mm holding down bolts to be cast in to the plinth for a replacement column. However, the contractor has indicated they have insufficient clearance to the existing structure to install the two columns at GL A & E (pads 1 & 6 on attached 000400_P02 drg) columns with the bolt protrus...

I am trying to calculate a stick on a plate with a bolt connection, but the calculation gives me this error. could you please let me know how can I overcome this?

Hello, I am working on the project where we are using chemical anchors Hilti HY 200A + HAS-U. These anchors connect the secondary steelwork (supporting cladding panels ) to RC structure. The steelwork and connection need to have 60 & 120 minutes fire resistance. Could you please advise if one of the following method would be...

1/2 and 5/8 dia. Kwik Bolt TZ2 SS316 anchors were specified for securing equipment to the top of a concrete slab for seismic resistance for a wastewater treatment plant in North Carolina (Building Category III w/ SDC C). The contractor used, HST2-R anchors that came with the equipment by accident. The HST2-R anchors have an eq...

Hello, our client wants to fix a balustrade bracket into a 100mm wide 10N concrete block wall (440x215x100mm blocks) using a pair of countersunk M8 HUS type anchors. Have you got any solution that would be suitable for this scenario? The loads are 0.75kN vertical and horixontal shear and 0.55kNm bending both ways.

Do you have an anchor that can be installed and re-installed, hundreds of times, in the same spot?

I am currently looking at the capacity of an anchor into an existing masonry wall. However, I am receiving a brick edge failure and I can't seem to get it to work with the anchors available. Could you provide any assistance with this?
