Hi,
I would like to extend pedestal for additional anchor bolts.
For Post-installed Reinforcement Embedment length, the calculation is as below with Rebar Theory.
#4 Rebar,
Ld = 3/40*60000/(1.0*sqrt(3000))*1.0/2.5*0.75=24.65= 25”
However, the concrete pedestal width is less than 25”, so I was wondering if I can use 6” based on "Anchor Theory".
Please see the attached file.
Hi David,
To analyze a rebar application, engineers typically utilize PROFIS Engineering to determine the most optimized solution based on their design provisions. Information about PROFIS Engineering can be found here and the rebar applications can be found in the Concrete-to-Concrete module. Additional information can be found in the Post-Installed Reinforcing Bar Guide.
Regards,
Ashley
