Hello: I'm trying to use Profis to design some masonry epoxy anchors in hollow block with sleeve. It appears the program is restricted to a limited sizes and embedment depths with HIT-HY 270. Please advise if there is way to use a larger anchor and depth say 5/8" or 3/4" with a sleeve.
Hello Christopher,
PROFIS Engineering pulls from Hilti’s published data for its calculations. For HIT-HY 270 in Hollow CMU following an ASD design method, this is from the Anchor Fastening Technical Guide. For an LRFD design method, ICC ESR-4143 is referenced. As such, installation conditions outside of the published test data and the Instructions for Use are unable to be modeled on PROFIS Engineering.
I hope this helps. If you have additional questions, please feel free to reach out to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com.
Best,
Sinan
