I am looking for allowable pull out and tension capacity for KB-TZ2 in 4000psi concrete for seismic application.
Hi Walt,
Thank you for reaching out. The current ICC Evaluation Service Report for the KB-TZ2 in Concrete is ESR-4266. Notably, this follows the LRFD design methodology for use in ACI 318 Chapter 17 calculations, which no longer follows the ASD methodology with allowable loads.
Engineers also consider using Hilti’s PROFIS Engineering software to aid in their design process. Click here to access the software from Hilti’s website. Hilti has several how-to videos to help users get started with the PROFIS Engineering Suite software. For additional information on the various design modules/methods, Hilti provides several on-demand Ask Hilti webinars on topics such as base plate design, anchoring to masonry, and anchoring to concrete-over-metal deck.
For additional questions, please reach out to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com.
Kind regards,
Sinan
