I have been asked to provide the capacity of an existing installation. there are two 5/8 dia kwik bolts.... see attached file.
I know they are two close, but there should still be some reduced allowable capacity.
I do not know how to load the second bolt in Profis
Hello Michael,
Thank you for reaching out. Using PROFIS Engineering Anchoring to Concrete-Over-Metal Deck, you can add a second anchor under the “Anchor“ tab. Please see below:
Minimum anchor spacing requirements for the KB-TZ2 is discussed in Section 4.1.10 of ESR-4266. In cases where the minimum spacing is not met, the application would be outside of Hilti’s published testing and concrete splitting upon installation would be a considerable concern.
I hope this helps. For additional questions, please reach out to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com.
Kind regards,
Sinan
My question was not how to add a second bolt.

Hi Mike,
Are you trying to add a second load combination to evaluate? If so, this can be done by clicking "Input Custom Factored Loads" then inputting your desired factored loads. Notably, evaluating multiple load combinations is a Premium feature on PROFIS Engineering.
Please reach out to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com for further PROFIS Engineering questions, as they will be best equipped to assist.
Kind regards,
Sinan
