Hilti Profis Embedment Depth
Hilti Profis Embedment Depth
(OP)
Good-morning,
Thought I would check on here before contacting Hilti, but I am having an issue with the Profis software where it does not allow me to change embedment depth. Specifically, I am using ASD so that I can spec out an HCA mechanical anchor because that is what we have been using. It does not allow me to change embedment depth, the user selected embedment depth is just grayed out, and optimized embedment depth is selected at 4.5 in. This is failing at UC of 116%. My foundation is 1.5' thick so all I want to do is go a little deeper and make this work. This has happened in the past and I don't know how I fixed it. This is frustrating enough that I may switch to Powers, but we already have HCA's on site, and I know I can make it work..

Interesting note, when I updated the software Hilti posed a question of added features, gave you a fixed sum of money ($1000) and asked how much you would invest into each future. I put the majority of my money into "Anchor plate design including stiffeners". Now that would be nice!

Have you called Hilti? They're actually pretty responsive. There's a chance it's a problem on their end.

This is exactly what I have been saying, it is grayed out so I can not unselect it. See attachment a few posts above. I just spec'd out some powers, I will contact hilti some other time if this persists the next time I need to spec out anchor bolts.
