Metric Sizes for ASTM F1554 gr 36 Anchor Rods
(OP)
I assumed the F1554 anchor rods would be available in either imperial or metric sizes (using the F1554M designation). However, we just shifted from using imperial anchors in our project to metric sizes and after some research I can't seem to find any metric sizes available. Am I missing something? We did propose to use imperial sizes but bump the size down by an 1/8th of an inch but our client wasn't too keen on that.

It was not arbitrary, I just didn't give a great deal of details. We wouldn't want to go up a size since that might interfere with the client's equipment and for many of their anchors, the closest imperial equivalent is 1/8" smaller - i.e. an M80 anchor would be downsized to a 3" diameter imperial which is 1/8" smaller.

No, "in order to get the metric size anchor bolts our paperwork rules say we must get."
Subtle, but important, difference. His anchor bolts would be "correct" but just not allowed under your company's paperwork.
