I am trying to perform an analysis of an anchored baseplate with 3/4'' HIT-Z anchors with a 6'' embedment and a 1/2'' baseplate. However, I am getting the following error message.
Acceptable fixture thickness with the given embedment depth is not covered by the standard product portfolio of the selected anchor (standard portfolio covers values between 0 in and 0.35 in). Please contact Hilti to discuss the feasibility of supply!
Does this message impact calculation results? If so, could I design for a baseplate thickness of 0.35'' and just assumed anything thicker would work?
Hi Johnny,
The dimensions of the HIT-Z anchor rod can be found on page 36 of Hilti's Anchor Fastening Product Technical Guide. You will need to ensure that your total length is sufficient for your embedment depth, plate thickness, and nut/washer, and your usable thread length is long enough.
If you have any further questions, please reach out to hnatechnicalservices@hilti.com or feel free to give us a a call at 877-749-6337.
