Foundation bolt length using pvelite
Foundation bolt length using pvelite
(OP)
Dear All member,
I have a question about foundation bolt,I just started to use pvelite software, i notice that i could only calculate the bolt size required for the foundation bolt using pvelite, can any member tell me that is there a way to know the length of the foundation bolt required? I had been checking with the pressure vessel manual by dennis moss but didn't able to gain anything from it. Hope dear forum member can help.
Thanks in advance for reply.

Thanks for your reply,
Can you tell me what kind of design is for the length of foundation bolt? Is there a code or manual that i could refer to? I really appreciate your help in this matter.

RE: Foundation bolt length using pvelite
The length of the bolts may be determined based on concrete breakout strength, etc., or may be set to overlap with vertical steel in the foundation, or may be increased for easy of placement. Check with the foundation designer.
