Concrete edge break out, why is this failing

I cannot believe that there would be concrete break out using M24 anchors in this situation. There is over 1m of edge distance on both sides. Also surely edge distance is irrelevant when no loading in the other direction. It seems to have large influence on anchor resistance. Based on this calcualtion I would need to have 3m s...

Which type of masonry do you suggest selecting in PROFIS when fixing to the outer leaf (assumed single brick, non-load bearing) cavity wall?

Looking to fix a steel angle to the face of an assumed 102mm thick brick outer skin which likely forms part of an cavity wall. The strength of the brick is likely to be 30 N/mm2.

HUS4-H Minimum concrete grade

Would the HUS4-H anchors be suitable for use in C8/10 concrete? PROFIS seems to suggest that C12/15 is the lowest that will work. The utlisation is low when running the assessment for C12/15 grade concrete.

Hilti Baseplate check - Concrete edge breakout assumption on a return corner

I am completing a check on a baseplate fixing with uplift and a shear load. The baseplate is close to a return corener of the concrete base material when reviewed on plan. When using hilti profis anchor it is not possible to create a base material with the same kind of profile and the use of a straight edge seems overly conser...

maximum torque moment Tmax (Nm) for M24 using HIT-RE 500 V3 injection mortar

Dear Sir/Ms, In Technical Datasheet for HIT-RE 500 V3 injection mortar, Tmax for M24 = 200Nm, where hef, min = 96 and hdf, max=480. Is 200Nm for hef, min or hef, max? we use HIT-RE 500 V3 injection mortar to install rail clips, the rail clips - gantrail requires at least 240Nm, is this applicable to anchor installed with HIT...

M30 HAS-U (8.8) HDG - Available lengths and possible substitute

Hello, we have a project where we need to use an M30 (8.8) HAS-U HDG resin anchor with 600mm embedment depth and the overall length required for the anchor would need to be ~900mm. Maximum length available for an M30 on the website is 400mm. Can you please advise if you can provide longer resin anchors on request? If this is...
