Check for Anchor Bolts

Loads
Tension Force per Bolt (max.) Tb = 40.0 kN (Max. tension = 160kn/4 anchors)
Shear Force per Bolt Fb = 22.50 kN (Max. tension = 90kn/4 anchors)

Connection Details

Grade of Anchor Bolt = 8.8

Diameter of anchor bolt db = 16 mm
Gross area of one bolt Abg = 201 mm2
Effective area of one bolt Abn = 157 mm2
Shear strength of bolt ps = 375 N/mm2
Tension strength of bolt pt = 450 N/mm2
Shear capacity of one bolt Ps = 59 kN > Fb, SAFE
Tension capacity of one bolt Pt = 71 kN > Tb, SAFE

Check for combined shear and Tension

= Fb / Ps + Tb / Pt

= 0.95 < 1.4, SAFE

Check for Anchorage of Bolt

Assuming tension force is transfer to concrete by bond along embeded length

Length of anchorage required L = Tb

db fbu

Where
2
Compressive strength of concrete fcu = 40.00 N/mm
Design ultimate bond stress fbu = 0.28 fcu N/mm2
(As per cl. 3.12.8.4 of BS8110 part 1) = 1.8 N/mm2

Length of anchorage required L = 449 mm

Provide ancgorage length 500 mm
