( 17.4.5.3 )
ψ ec , Na is a modification factor that is used to account for a resultant tension load that is eccentric with respect to the centroid of anchors that are loaded in tension .
ψ ec , Na is only considered when calculating the nominal bond strength in tension for an anchor group ( N ag
).
but ψ ec , Na shall not be taken greater than 1.0 .

Reference the Variables section of the PROFIS Engineering report for more information on the following parameters :
e c1 , N
: Parameter for tension eccentricity with respect to the x direction
e c2 , N
: Parameter for tension eccentricity with respect to the y direction
If the loading on an adhesive anchor group is such that only some adhesive anchors are in tension , only those adhesive anchors that are in tension shall be considered when determining the eccentricity e ́N for use in Eq . ( 17.4.5.3 ) and for the calculation of N ag according to Eq . ( 17.4.5.1b ).
In the case where eccentric loading exists about two orthogonal axes , the modification factor ,
ψ ec , Na
, shall be calculated for each axis individually and the product of these factors used as ψ ec , Na in Eq . ( 17.4.5.1b ).

17.4.5.4 The modification factor for edge effects for single adhesive anchors or adhesive anchor groups loaded in tension , ψ ed , Na
, shall be calculated as

c Na
ψ ed , Na is a modification factor that is used to account for fixed edge distances less than c Na
, where c Na corresponds to a projected distance from the center of the adhesive anchor element being modeled in PROFIS Engineering . The illustration below shows how the assumed area of influence ( A Na
) would be defined for an adhesive anchoring application being modeled with two fixed edges ( c a1 and c a2 ) that are both less than c Na , and with c a1 being less than c a2 . The smallest edge distance ( c a1 ) corresponds to the parameter c a , min
, and would be used to calculate the modification factor ψ ed , Na .
ψ ed , Na
= 0.7 + 0.3 ( c a1 / c Na
)
