Axial Force in Anchor Bolts
I cannot input an axial force in the anchor rods. I cannot input any value in N row.

Hi Omkar,
It may be because you are designing with a ledger angle. Currently, shear loads (vertical and in plane) are the only loads that are able to be added to ledger angle designs in PROFIS Engineering. This is the reason why the tension and moment load boxes are greyed out and unable to be edited. The most common use case is to have shear loads on ledger angles that are on walls.
Best,
Emily

Emily,
Just commenting to Emily's response. Hopefully Hilti is looking into adding this feature in the future because most of those ledger angles we use at our office are for out of plane wall loads at the roof as well as in plane loads. You'll also have some moment from gravity, uplift, and out of plane loads due to the eccentricity of the load.
Regards
Laura
