Anchorage of fiberglass tank. We estimate uplift to be about 6000 lbs ( service load) per anchor location. Anchorage will be to competent bedrock. Looking at chemical anchors. Seeking advice re preparation, hole diameter, hole length, resistance to uplift.

Hi Philip,

Unfortunately, Hilti does not have any anchors that have testing into bedrock as a base material. However, please refer to this previous Ask Hilti response related to anchorages into natural stone that may be helpful.

Regards,
Ashley
