1 Minimum safety factor, Ω, for tabulated values is 2.0. 2 Multiply tabulated values by 1.5 to obtain minimum Load and Resistance Factor Design( LRFD) values. 3 Tabulated values require that minimum grade 8.8 threaded rods must be used. 4 Tabulated values are for assembly shown in Figure 30. Design Professional is responsible for checking strength of supporting steel member. 5 Tabulated values are based on friction that is provided mechanically and not due to gravity loads.
