h a
For the post-installed anchors in its portfolio , PROFIS Engineering uses the minimum concrete thickness values ( h min
) given in the anchor approval . Excerpt from ESR-1917 ( Kwik Bolt-TZ ) showing values for h min
.
ψ h , V is a modification factor that is used to account for a concrete member thickness ha that is less than 1.5c a1
. The figure below illustrates how calculation of ψ h , V considers the concrete thickness ( h a ).
