Mohammed,

It appears that your file would not properly open on our end, would you be able to send a copy of the design report for us to review? Keep in mind, if you are using PROFIS Rebar, the software will use the Rebar Development provisions from ACI 318-14 Chapter 25 (ACI 318-11 Chapter 12), which states that the development length will be the maximum between the development length equation and 12.00 inches. For more information on this, please feel free to review Section 3.1.14 (https://submittals.us.hilti.com/PTGVol2/#56) from the Anchor Fastening Technical Guide.

Let us know if you have any additional questions.

Regards,

Bryan
