The tabulated values are for anchors installed at the specified spacing (s) and edge (c) distances. Spacing and edge distances may be reduced using the provisions
of Section 1923.3 of the 1997 UBC.
2
The tabulated values are for anchors installed in concrete having the designated compressive strength or higher at the time of installation.
3
Hole depth is measured from the concrete surface to the bottom of the hole.
4
Anchor embedment is measured from the concrete surface to the bottom of the expansion sleeve.
5
These tension values are only applicable when the anchors are installed without special inspection. Where special inspection is provided, allowable tension loads
are twice the tabulated values.
6
The DUC anchors may be used to resist wind and earthquake forces for compliance with the UBC. The load values may be adjusted in accordance with Section
1612.3 of the UBC for service (allowable stress) design.

For SI: 1 inch = 25.4 mm, 1 lbf = 4.45 N.
1
The tabulated values are for anchors installed at the specified spacing (s) and edge (c) distances. Spacing and edge distances may be reduced using the provisions
of Section 1923.3 of the UBC.
2
The tabulated values are for anchors installed in normal-weight concrete having the designated compressive strength or higher at the time of installation.
3
Hole depth is measured from the concrete surface to the bottom of the hole.
4
Anchor embedment is measured from the concrete surface to the bottom of the expansion sleeve.
5
The DUC Anchors may be used to resist wind and earthquake forces for compliance with the UBC. The load values may be adjusted in accordance with Section
1612.3 of the UBC for service (allowable stress) design.
6
These shear values apply with or without special inspection.

1
The tabulated values are for anchors installed at the specified spacing (s) and edge (c) distances. Spacing and edge distances may
be reduced using the provisions of Section 1923.3 of the UBC. Additional strength design static tension loads may be determined
in accordance with Sections 1923.3, 1923.3.3 and 1923.4 of the code.
2
The tabulated values are for anchors installed in concrete having the designated compressive strength or higher at the time of
installation.
3
Pss values are calculated using the formulas in Section 1923.3.2 of the UBC where Ab is the bolt tensile area.
4
Anchor embedment is measured from the concrete surface to the bottom of the expansion sleeve.
5
Use the lesser of Pss and i Pc.
6
The tabulated are based on special inspection in accordance with Section 2.3.

3
Vss is calculated using the formulas in Section 1923.3 of the UBC where Ab is the bolt tensile area. Vss is for
pre-set anchor applications.
4
Vsss is calculated using the formulas in Section 1923.3 of the UBC where Ab is the nominal sleeve area. Vsss
is for through-bolt anchor applications.
5
Vc is calculated using the formulas in Section 1923.3 of the UBC where Ab is the nominal sleeve area. Vc is
for pre-set anchor through-bolt anchor applications.
