Installation Instructions for 316 Stainless Steel Wedge-Bolt

1. Step 1
   Using the proper Wedge-bit size, drill a hole into the base material to the required depth. The tolerances of the Wedge-bit used must meet the requirements of the published Wedgebit range.

2. Step 2
   Remove dust and debris from the hole during drilling (e.g. dust extractor) or following drilling (e.g. suction, forced air) to extract loose particles created by drilling.

3. Step 3
   Select a powered impact wrench that ndoes not exceed the maximum torque,
   Tinst,max or Timpact,max, for the selected anchor diameter. Attach an appropriate-sized hex socket/driver to the impact wrench.
   Mount the screw anchor head into the socket.

4. Step 4
   Drive the anchor through the fixture and into the hole until the head of the anchor comes into contact with the fixture. The anchor should be snug after installation. Do not spin the hex socket off the anchor to disengage.

1.  Tabulated load values are for anchors installed in uncracked normal weight concrete. Concrete compressive strength must be at a minimum at the time of installation.
2. Allowable load capacities are calculated using an applied safety factor of 4.0.
3.  Allowable load capacities must be multiplied by reduction factors when anchor spacing or edge distances are less than critical distances.
4. Linear interpolation may be used to determine allowable loads for intermediate embedments and compressive strengths.
5.  Allowable loads for lightweight concrete may be determined by multiplying the tabulated allowable load capacities for normal weight concrete by 0.60.

LOAD ADJUSTMENT FACTORS FOR SPACING AND EDGE DISTANCES1
Anchor Installed in Normal-Weight Concrete

Anchor Dimension| Load Type| Critical Distance (Full Anchor Capacity)| Critical Load Factor| Minimum Distance (Reduced Capacity)| Minimum Load Factor
---|---|---|---|---|---
spacing (s)| Tension| scr = 12d| FnS = 1.0| smin = 4d| FnS = 0.50
shear| scr = 12d| FVS = 1.0| smin = 4d| FVS = 0.75
Edge Distance (c)| Tension| ccr = 8d| Fnc = 1.0| cmin = 3d| Fnc = 0.70
shear| ccr = 12d| FVc = 1.0| cmin = 3d| FVc = 0.15

1. Allowable load values found in the performance data tables are multiplied by reduction factors when anchor spacing or edge distances are less than critical distances. Linear interpolation is allowed for intermediate anchor spacing and edge distances between critical and minimum distances. When an anchor is affected by both reduced spacing and edge distance, the spacing and edge reduction factors must be combined (multiplied). Multiple reduction factors for anchor spacing and edge distance may be required depending on the anchor group configuration.

LOAD ADJUSTMENT FACTORS FOR NORMAL-WEIGHT CONCRETE

Spacing, Tension (FNS)

Notes: For anchors loaded in tension, the critical spacing (scr) is equal to 12 anchor diameters (12d) at which the anchor achieves 100% of load.
Minimum spacing (smin) is equal to 4 anchor diameters (4d) at which the anchor achieves 50% of load.

Spacing, Shear (FVS)

Notes: For anchors loaded in shear, the critical spacing (scr)
is equal to 12 anchor diameters (12d) at which the anchor achieves 100% of load.
Minimum spacing (smin) is equal to 4 anchor diameters (4d) at which the anchor achieves 75% of load.

Edge Distance, Tension (FNC)

Notes: For anchors loaded in tension, the critical edge distance (ccr) is equal to 8 anchor diameters (8d) at which the anchor achieves 100% of load.
Minimum edge distance (cmin) is equal to 3 anchor diameters (3d) at which the anchor achieves 70% of load.

Edge Distance, Shear (FVC)

Notes: For anchors loaded in shear, the critical edge distance (ccr) is equal to 12 anchor diameters (12d) at which the anchor achieves 100% of load. Minimum edge distance (cmin) is equal to 3 anchor diameters (3d) at which the anchor achieves 15% of load

1.  Tabulated load values are for anchors installed in minimum 8-inch wide, Grade N, Type II, normal-weight concrete masonry units conforming to AsTM C 90 that have reached the minimum designated ultimate strength at the time of installation (f’m ≥ 1,500 psi).
2. Allowable load capacities are calculated using an applied safety factor of 5.0. Consideration of safety factors of 10 or higher may be necessary depending on the application, such as life safety.
3. Linear interpolation for allowable loads for anchors at intermediate embedment depths may be used.
4. For installation in 3,000 psi grout filled concrete masonry (f’m = 3,000 psi) the load capacity in 1,500 psi grout filled concrete masonry (f’m = 1,500) may be increased by 40% and the load capacity in 2,000 psi grout concrete masonry (f’m = 2,000 psi) may be increased by 22%.
5.   The tabulated load values are applicable for screw anchors installed at a critical spacing between screw anchors of 16 times the screws anchor diameter. reduce the tabulated load capacities by 50 percent when anchors are installed at a minimum spacing between screw anchors of 8 times the screw anchor diameter. Linear interpolation may be used for intermediate spacing distances.

1.  All values are for anchors installed in fully grouted concrete masonry wall construction with materials meeting minimum compressive strength, f’m, of 1,500 psi (10.3 MPa). Concrete masonry units must be light-, medium, or normal-weight conforming to AsTM C90. Allowable loads are based on a safety factor of 5.0.
2. Anchors may be installed in any location in the top of the masonry wall except within 1-1/4-inch from the of the mortar joint (head joint), provided the minimum edge and end distances are maintained.
3.  A maximum of two anchors may be installed in a single masonry cell in accordance with the spacing and edge or end distance requirements. Embedment is measured from the outside surface of the concrete masonry unit to the embedded end of the anchor.
4. spacing distance is measured from the centerline to centerline between two anchors.
5.   The edge and end distance is measured from the anchor centerline to the closest unrestrained edge and end of the CMU block, respectively.
6. Allowable shear loads may be applied in any direction.
