17.6.4.1 For a single headed anchor with deep embedment close to an edge ( h ef > 2.5c a1
), the nominal side-face blowout strength , N sb , shall not exceed
N sb
= 160c a1

17.6.4.1.1 If c a2 for the single headed anchor is less than 3c a1
, the value of N sb shall be multiplied by the factor ( 1 + c a2
/ c a1 )/ 4 , where
1.0 ≤ c a2 / c a1
≤ 3.0 .

When modeling a single anchor in tension , the side-face blowout strength for a single anchor ( N sb
) is calculated per Eq . ( 17.6.4.1 ), and modified by the factor
( 1 + c a2
/ c a1 )/ 4 if a corner exists . PROFIS Engineering designates the factor
( 1 + c a2
/ c a1 )/ 4 as “ α corner
”. The parameter “ c a1
” corresponds to the distance from the center of the anchor to the nearest fixed edge where side-face blowout is assumed to occur . When two or more fixed edges create a corner , the parameter
c a2 corresponds to the fixed edge perpendicular to c a1 such that c a1
< c a2
. Per the provisions given in 17.6.4.1 , PROFIS Engineering does not calculate “ α corner
” if c a2
≥ 3c a1 . The report will show α corner
= 1.0 if c a2 > 3c a1
.
