Anchors may be installed at any location in the face of the masonry wall (cell, web, head joint, bed joint, etc.).
3
Allowable load values are for use in any masonry construction complying with Section 2.2.3 of this report.
4
When anchors are used to resist short-term loads, allowable loads must be calculated in accordance with Section 2.3.2 of this report.
5
Embedment depth is measured from the outside face of the masonry.
6
Edge distances of less than 4 inches are beyond the scope of this report. Linear interpolation for edge distances between 4 inches and 12 inches
is allowed.
7
Allowable extension loads must be the lesser of the adjusted masonry or bond tabulated steel tension values given in Table 6.
8
Allowable shear loads must be the lesser of the adjusted masonry or bond tabulated values and the steel shear values given in Table 6.
9
The tabulated allowable loads have been calculated based on safety factor of 5.0. These values may be increased by 25% (safety factor of 4)
under the UBC only.
10
Masonry thickness must be equal to or greater than 1.5 times the anchor embedment depth.

EXCEPTION: The 3/4-inch-diameter anchors may be installed in minimum nominal 8-inch-thick masonry.
