yellow zinc plated anchor bolts?
(OP)
Would it be deemed acceptable to use a yellow zinc coated J429 grade 8 hex bolt embeded in concrete in place of L bent bolts.
From what I can find the hex head anchors provide greater strength.
They surpass the requirements of F1554 grade 36 correct?
Will the yellow zinc corrode rapidly embeded in the concrete? I intend to paint the exposed portion (after tightening) for corrosion protection.
The application is a metal building. The column anchors are as such inside and not subject to salt etc.

Grainger has 3/4 but they list a lower tensile strength than their 3/8 and give no specifics to metal grade.
Are 3/4 bent anchors that rare that no one stocks?
Are wedge bolts , Link
or Link wedge anchors acceptable for this kind of application.( Steel I-beam building colunm anchors)
I was mainly concerned with the anchors holding power. However, now I see that the regulations are protecting the foundation also.

Since these may be subject to corrosion, use either stainless or hot dip galvanized. You can get all-thread of either material from Hilti. Most liekly, a local contractor supplier or pre-engineered metal building company will have the galvanized anchor rods.
