When all epoxy anchors are aligned, the utilization (UT) is approximately 90%. However, when I adjust the position of one anchor by 5mm parallel to the shear force to avoid hitting reinforcing bars, the UT jumps to 140%. It seems unlikely for such a minor adjustment—well within typical construction tolerances—to result in this...

Hi Hilti Technical Team, I would like to inquire about the feasibility of using the HILTI KWIK Bolt TZ2 expansion anchor in confined spaces. In one of our current projects, the standard drawing specifies the use of the HILTI KWIK system for anchoring a steel plate to a concrete wall (see attached Detail.jpg). However, the bea...

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, We need a detail to seal the joints at the corners of the block walls. As you can see in the attachment, we are using system NO. WWW-D-0064. The problem is that the joint is inaccessible from one side of the block. Do you have any detail that is suitable for this situation? Thanks

Peut-on appliquer un coefficient pour dégrader la résistance de calcul en traction et/ou en cisaillement dans le cas où des tiges filetées auraient été ancrées sans nettoyage des trous ? Dans le cadre de travaux, des ancrages, fait de tiges filetés type HAS avec HIT HY-200 R V3, ont été posés sans procéder au nettoyage des tr...

WE REQUIRE DETAIL FOR 1 HR RATED SHAFTWALL TO THE UNDERSIDE OF A NON-RATED METAL ROOF DECK.

where is the access diaphragm settings? i just want to have the result in the other direction( perpendicular to joinsts)

We require an engineering Judgment for using fire stopping for the below existing condition of the gap above an elevator door frame at a Hotel building: As you can see in the attached SK-7 & SK-9, above the stainless steel elevator door frame at the left side where the 5/8 dry walls are connected to the stainless steel eleva...

We are doing a multi-storey heritage project where the existing brickwalls are preserved with new floor slabs. The floor slab requires 2hr fire separation. The engineer required a drain mat as bond breaker between the new concrete floor slab and existing brick wall (see image below). Is there a firestopping system suitable for...
