Use of J type bolts
Use of J type bolts
(OP)
I have seen in few threads that J type anchor bolts are not recommended for high tensile forces.
Would appreciate if anybody can tell me the exact clause no of ACI or AISC where such recommendation has been given.

90 degree hooks on rebar have requirements for minimum extension length for developing the bar whereas J bolts extension is much shorter and thus not developing its strength.

for compression one can straightaway use simple straight rod ...
for tension use bolt with anchor plate..

chichuk, rebars behave differently because the ribs on the bars transfer the load more or less uniformly while a plain bar can easily de-bond, transferring the load to the anchorage.
