We have a customer who has selected a specific stainless steel threaded rod spec (HAS-R 304 / 316) to be used, and we need to verify it is acceptable with the mounting flange through PROFIS. During the setup for the calculations, it seems impossible to select an appropriate fastener in that family to run the analysis. Is there a method to selecting the exact anchor you wish to test against?
Hi Chris,
Within the Anchoring to Concrete module in PROFIS Engineering, the anchor can be selected by clicking the "Anchor" tab on the left hand side of the screen (boxed in red below) and the results can be filtered based on your application. If application parameters (i.e. loads, geometry, etc.) are inputted before an anchor is selected, PROFIS will filter out all the anchor options that are not suitable for the application (hence why you may be seeing fewer anchors than normal).
If you have any further questions, please reach out to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com.
Best,
Mia
