Hi, does anyone know of any software that can design anchor bolts along with base plate checks (+stiffeners if required)? Also is anyone aware of a program that can do the bolt design while specifying the location of small openings or re-entrant corners (as opposed to being limited to specifying the free edge distance)? I am used to using the Hilti Profis software, but that is limiting in that it does not check your baseplate, and that you can't specify small penetrations in your slab.

Thanks!

Powers PDA will design base plates in a limited fashion.

Civilbay and TEDDs offer anchor bolt only options as well, but if you are in the US, I suspect Risa Base is the best option.
