Does Hilti Profis has a feature to perform anchor design on circular concrete elements?
I would like to perform anchor design on a CIP circular pile, but I don't see an option to input circular concrete shapes in the program to complete my anchor design for post installed or cast in place anchors.

Hi Parasdeep,
For anchoring into a circular concrete column, we typically see engineers consider utilizing a conservative approach by modeling anchor capacity based on the size of a square shape that will fit within the outside diameter. Additionally, engineers will also consider using rebar development theory as an alternate design method to evaluate potential post-installed anchor solutions.
