17.6.2.3.2 If the loading on an anchor group is such that only some of the anchors in the group are in tension , only those anchors that are in tension shall be considered for determining eccentricity
e ́N in Eq . ( 17.6.2.3.1 ) and for the calculation of N cbg according to Eq . ( 17.6.2.1b ). 17.6.2.3.3 If the loading is eccentric with respect to two orthogonal axes , the modification factor ,
ψ ec , N
, shall be calculated for each axis individually and the product of these factors shall be used as ψ ec , N in Eq . ( 17.6.2.1b ). e c1 , N is a PROFIS Engineering parameter to define pryout eccentricity with respect to the x direction . The value for e c1 , N corresponds the distance in the x direction of a resultant shear load from the centroid of anchors that are loaded in shear . When considering concrete pryout strength in shear , PROFIS Engineering uses e c1 , N to calculate the ACI 318 modification factor for eccentricity ( ψ ec , N ), and designates this modification factor ψ ec1 , N to indicate eccentricity is being considered in the x direction . PROFIS Engineering pryout calculations for shear eccentricity with respect to the x direction are as follows :
• calculate a resultant shear load acting on the anchors .
• calculate the distance in the x direction ( e c1 , N
) between this load and the centroid of the anchors loaded in shear .
• calculate a modification factor for eccentricity ( ψ ec1 , N ) with respect to the x direction .
If the resultant shear load acting on the anchorage is eccentric with respect to both the x and y directions ; PROFIS Engineering calculates the eccentricity for each direction ( e c1 , N with respect to the x direction and e c2 , N with respect to the y direction ), and the ψ ec , N modification factor for each direction ( ψ ec1 , N for eccentricity with respect to the x direction and ψ ec2 , N for eccentricity with respect to the y direction ). ψ ec1 , N and ψ ec2 , N are multiplied together to give a total modification factor for pryout eccentricity .
The illustration below shows how PROFIS Engineering considers shear eccentricity when calculating V cpg
. The resultant shear load ( V res
) is eccentric in both the x direction and y direction with respect to the centroid of the anchors that are in shear . PROFIS Engineering defines the eccentricity of the shear load in the x-direction as the parameter “ e c1 , N
” and eccentricity in the y-direction as the parameter “ e c2 , N
”.
