ATS: Anchor Bolts

ATS-AB Anchor Bolts
Naming Scheme:

ATS -AB anchor bolts, or pre-assembled anchor bolts (PAB ), have been designed for use with the ATS in foundations poured against earth. They are available in 12"-36" (in 6" increments). The heavy hex nuts are pressed onto the bolt to keep them in place.

Material:

Standard (model AB_) – min. Fu = 58 ksi

High-strength (model AB_H) – up to 1" diameter – min. Fu = 120 ksi; 1 1/8" and 1 1/4" – min. Fu = 125 ksi

Finish: None

Simpson Strong-Tie® Anchor Selector™ Software for ACI 318 analyzes and suggests anchor solutions using the ACI 318 Appendix D strength-design methodology. It provides cracked and uncracked-concrete anchorage solutions for numerous Simpson Strong-Tie® mechanical and adhesive anchors as well as the ATS -AB or PAB anchor bolt (typ.). With its easy-to-use graphical user interface, the software makes it easy for the Designer to identify anchorage solutions without having to perform time-consuming calculations by hand.

  1. Allowable tension capacities are based on AISC 13th Ed.
  2. Plate washers are designed to develop the capacity of the anchor bolt.


ATS-AB Anchor Bolt – Anchorage Solutions:
perpendicular-to-wall installation

  1. Anchorage designs conform to ACI 318 Appendix D and assume cracked concrete with no supplementary reinforcement.
  2. Seismic indicates Seismic Design Category C through F. Detached one and two-family dwellings in SDC C may use wind anchorage solutions. Seismic anchorage designs conform to ACI 318-05 Section D3.3.4.
  3. Wind includes Seismic Design Category A and B.
  4. Foundation dimensions are for anchorage only. Foundation design (size and reinforcement) by Designer. The registered design professional may specify alternate embedment, footing size, and anchor bolt.
  5. Allowable Stress Design (ASD) values are obtained by dividing Load Factor Resistance Design (LRFD) capacities by 1.43 for Seismic and 1.6 for Wind.
