5/8 inch diameter anchor rods
(OP)
I have a residential project that is going to require a few steel columns. The architect wants to use 5/8 diameter anchor rods to fasten the columns to their footings. I normally work in the commercial construction world and never use less than 3/4 inch diameter. Does anyone on here use 5/8 diameter rods? If so, what diameter holes do you recommend thru the baseplate?

AISC Table 14-2 does not spec the MAX hole size for any anchor bolt (rod?) less than 3/4" diameter (which is 1-5/16").
