Overstrength applied?

Overstrength applied?

Please tell me how I know whether Overstrength has been applied in this calculation per the California Building Code. I have selected cracked concrete but do not see it addressed in the input or output.

Hi Jeffrey,

It doesn't appear that the anchor design is in seismic. You will need to change the load type to seismic, and then select the correct seismic tension and shear provision to include the overstrength factor (please see screenshot attached). If you need additional assistance, please reach out to Hilti's engineering team at hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com.

Regards,
Dani
