If you have a rebar connection be it simply support, overlap joint, or splice, we can assist you in the design and calculation to provide the most optimised solution to you based on international standards such as AS 3600, EN 1992-2, ACI. Seismic Design of anchors made easy with our all in one connection design software, PROFIS Engineering. We provide design calculation service of Post-installed Rebar Applications on your construction projects. We’ve also added our own Hilti research results into PROFIS Engineering software, so that you can find solutions, which go beyond AS5216:2021 Appendix F. This approach is also applicable only for the tension component and some provisions need to be observed to ensure that the cause of failure is steel failure.
This gives three solutions for anchoring base plates in seismic areas:Ĭapacity design - The anchorage is designed for the force corresponding to the yield of a ductile component, or if lower, the maximum force that can be transferred by the fixture or the attached element.Įlastic design - The fastening is designed for the maximum load assuming an elastic behaviour of the fastening and of the structure.ĭesign with requirements for anchor ductility - This design for ductile steel failure requires an anchor classified as ductile.
Our PROFIS Engineering software performs seismic calculations according to AS5216:2021 Appendix F. This includes code compliant Hilti products in 2D and 3D with relevant documentation and specifications. Or, you can use our Hilti PROFIS Engineering software. At Hilti our engineering team can help you design your anchor systems – just contact your local office for more details.
