Kwik HUS Diameter Limits under ACI 318 Design in Hilti PROFIS Engineerring

Any specific reasons why I cannot pick anchor diameters smaller than 1/2" under ACI 318 design? Under CSA design I can use 3/8" and 1/4".

ACI 318,CSA A23,Minimum Anchor Diameter

Hi Les,

The Kwik Hus technical data is published here and is aligned with the diameters available in PROFIS Engineering: 3/8", 1/2", 5/8" and 3/4". I confirmed these sizes with ACI 318 and CSA A23.3 in the software, screenshots attached. Some anchor sizes may be removed depending on the design parameters used in PROFIS. Feel free to send your PROFIS Engineering (.pe) file to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com if you would like for us to explore available options based on your design.

Best,
Sam
