I've been using Profis for a very long time. It has been a while since I used it; I just purchased a stand alone license so I can check the base plate too. As I print out the report, it goes through all the checks with an OK, and at the end of the anchor portion, it says "Anchor Doesn't Meet the Criteria". What's that all about? Does it work, or doesn't it?
Hi David,
After reviewing your file, it appears that the tension failure modes are what is causing the design to fail. The "fastening does not meet the design criteria" message at the end of the report is stating that based on the input tension and shear loads, the anchoring design is not sufficient and therefore, not recommended.
If you have further questions regarding your design, please email your ".pe" file to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com.
Regards,
Ashley
