Max Embedment depth for post-installed anchors
How deep of an embedment depth for post-installed anchors, can you achieve? What do you use to achieve this?

Kyle,
The embedment depth limitations will be based on the design theory you are utilizing. For Anchor Theory (ACI 318-14), embedment depths are limited to 20*d; while for Rebar Development Theory, the maximum embedment depth is increased until 60*d. For these deeper embedment depths, you will need to reference the ICC-ES Evaluation Report and Instructions for Use (IFU) for the product for additional information, or you can contact your local Hilti representative for more information.
Let us know if you have any additional questions.
