Headed Stud CMU wall spacing
Headed Stud CMU wall spacing
(OP)
Hello everyone,
I have been following this website for a while now and I finally became a member. I want to start off by saying hello to everyone out there. There really is a great depth of knowledge here. Now, down to my question...
I am working on anchoring headed studs (5/8 in. diam.) into a CMU wall. I am not too sure where to look for applicable spacing requirements, as I already looked through ACI 530. I read 20db in an ESR report but that's for concrete and I found somewhere else that says 1"+db but that's for decks. Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks

Dik - Where are you getting the 8" or 16" o.c.? ACI 530?

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

Are there min spacing limits for studs in concrete anchorage situations? That's news to me. I thought that the only limit was good sense as there's little point to having multiple studs once their failure cones become practically concurrent.

I'd like to check this out. Can you direct me to it any more specifically sandman?
