To Prediction of Concrete Cone Failure<br />

The engineering principles of Haeussler or the ACI Concrete Capacity <strong>Design</strong> (CCD) models should be used<br />

to predict concrete cone failure.<br />

Calculation of Reduction Factors for Edge Distances<br />

Reduction Factor in Tension<br />

Reduction Factor<br />

<strong>Design</strong>ed Edge Distance E = (see Table 1, page 18)<br />

Given Edge Distance<br />

a<br />

Thickness of the element<br />

D<br />

= [0.7 + 0.3 (a/E)] x [(a + E) / 2E ]<br />

Reduction Factor in Shear<br />

Thickness of the Element will also affect the shear capacity of the anchor<br />

Reduction Factor<br />

ϭ<br />

<strong>Design</strong>ed Edge Distance E = (see Table 1, page 18)<br />

Given Edge Distance<br />

a<br />

Thickness of the element<br />

D<br />

a < E and D > 1.5a<br />

Reduced edge distance and anchor length is greater than 1.5 edge distance<br />

ϭ = [0.7 + 0.3 (a/E)] x [(a² / E² ]<br />

a < E and D < 1.5a<br />

Reduced edge distance and anchor length is less than 1.5 edge distance<br />

ϭ = [0.7 + 0.3 (a/E)] x [(a x D / 1.5 x E² ]<br />

a > E but D < E<br />

Edge distance is as suggested and anchor length is less than the suggested edge distance<br />

ϭ = [(a x D / 1.5 x E² ]<br />

Limiting Factor when Tension and Shear Loads are Applied at the Same Time<br />

Be aware if both tension and shear loads occur at the same time check the combined load interaction.<br />

T/T a<br />

+ V/V a<br />

≤ 1.2<br />

T Applied load in Tension<br />

T a<br />

Allowable load in Tension<br />

V Applied load in Shear<br />
