Adhesive rebar anchorage capacity at concrete over metal deck
I have a project that requires a concrete housekeeping pad to be anchorage to the roof concrete over metal deck diaphragm. It is a 2.5" concrete over 3" metal deck (5.5" total). The profis engineering metal deck tool does not have a rebar adhesive option to choose. What is the best way to determine the capacity of the rebar anchorage to the concrete over metal deck.

Hi Maya,
This is currently outside of the scope of Hilti's testing. The engineer of record could consider using engineering judgement and/or on-site testing to account for variability in performance.
