ψ cp , N is a modification factor that considers splitting failure when calculating the nominal concrete breakout strength in tension ( N cb or N cbg ) for a post-installed anchor . The parameter ψ cp , N is only considered when designing post-installed mechanical or adhesive anchors installed in uncracked concrete . Splitting failure will typically not occur for cast-in-place anchors ; therefore , ψ cp , N is always shown equal to 1.0 in PROFIS Engineering when modeling cast-in-place anchors . Likewise , since splitting failure is only considered relevant to uncracked concrete conditions , ψ cp , N is always shown equal to 1.0 in PROFIS Engineering when modeling cast-in-place or post-installed anchors for cracked concrete conditions . |

For all other cases , including cast-in anchors , ψ cp , N shall be taken as 1.0 .

Splitting failure is influenced by the distance of an anchor from a fixed edge “ in a region of a concrete member where analysis indicates no cracking at service load levels ”. The parameter c ac that is used to calculate ψ cp , N is defined in ACI 318 as the “ critical edge distance required to develop the basic strength as controlled by concrete breakout or bond of a post-installed anchor in tension in uncracked concrete without supplementary reinforcement to control splitting .” ψ cp , N will be hown equal to 1.0 in PROFIS Engineering if the smallest fixed edge distance ( c a , min
) is greater than or equal to c ac
. Testing per the ICC-ES acceptance criteria AC193 and the ACI test standard ACI 355.2 is used to derive c ac values for mechanical anchors . Testing per the ICC-ES acceptance criteria AC308 and the ACI test standard ACI 355.4 is used to derive c ac values for adhesive anchor systems . c ac values derived from this testing are provided in an ICC-ESR . ACI 318-14 Section 17.7.6 provides c ac
-values for post-installed anchors ; however , these values are only intended to be used as “ guide values ” in the absence of c ac values derived from product-specific testing . PROFIS Engineering uses the c ac -value that is given in the ICC-ES evaluation report for an anchor to calculate ψ cp , N .
The value for ψ cp , N that PROFIS Engineering calculates will be limited to
