Post-installed screw anchors Kwik HUS EZ

Post-installed screw anchors Kwik HUS EZ

per ACI 318 Section 17.6.3.2, it states:

For post-installed expansion, screw, and undercut anchors, the values of Np shall be based on the 5percent fractile of results of tests performed and evaluated according to ACI 355.2. It is not permissible to calculate the pullout strength in tension for such anchors


when running the profis program, is this taken into account? see attached report, pullout strength is written as N/A

Hi Victoria,

The pullout strength for the KH-EZ is accounted for within the testing in ESR-3027. If a value is listed as N/A in ESR-3027, then that will not be a controlling failure mode for the anchorage. Therefore, since PROFIS Engineering pulls data from ESR documentation, the software will reflect the same information as is present in the ESR.

If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com or give us a call at 877-749-6337.

Regards,
