SET Technical Information
Load-Adjustment Factors for SET Epoxy-Tie ® Adhesive in Sand-Lightweight Concrete:
Edge Distance, Tension and Shear Loads
How to use these charts:
1. The following tables are for reduced edge distance only.
2. Locate the anchor size to be used for either a tension and/or
shear load application.
3. Locate the embedment (E) at which the anchor is to be installed.
4. Locate the edge distance (Cact ) at which the anchor is to be installed.
5. The load-adjustment factor (fc ) is the intersection of the row and column.

1. E = Embedment depth (inches).
2. Cact = actual edge distance at which anchor is installed (inches).
3. Ccr = critical edge distance for 100% load (inches).
4. Cmin = minimum edge distance for reduced load (inches).
5. fc = adjustment factor for allowable load at actual edge distance.
6. fccr = adjustment factor for allowable load at critical edge distance. fccr is always = 1.00.
7. fcmin = adjustment factor for allowable load at minimum edge distance.
8. fc = fcmin + [(1 - fcmin) (Cact - Cmin) / (Ccr - Cmin)].
6. Multiply the allowable load by the applicable load-adjustment factor.
7. Reduction factors for multiple edges are multiplied together.
8. Adjustment factors do not apply to allowable steel strength values.
9. Adjustment factors are to be applied to allowable Tension Load
Based on Bond Strength values or allowable Shear Load
Based on Concrete Edge Distance values only.
