anchor bolts
(OP)
Is it better to provide anchor bolts with a hook or a tack welded nut for anchorage. Literature seems to recommend a nut. Contractor's seem to like the nut better as well.
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: anchor bolts
Check with the contractor, or with local suppliers. In this area, contractors like to use pre-welded anchor bolt assemblies. Two anchors (e.g. (2) 5/8ths bolts) will be joined by a horizontal bar.
The horizontal bar increases the pull-out cone.
For the contractor, it holds the anchors rigidly in place during concrete pouring.
You will be limited somewhat on anchor bolt spacing in your design. These typically come 12" cc, 18" cc, etc.
