Anchor Bolts: B-212 Specification

[TowerEngineer]

Is anyone familiar with the anchor bolt specification B-212? I am unfamiliar with this material specification and its origin. A reference to the applicable specification and the bolt properties (Fy, Ft, Fu, Fv, etc.) is greatly appreciated.

All the ASTM specs are A- (i.e. A307, A36, A193, etc.) Would this be a British spec? Where was it called for?

I believe B212 is an ANSI standard for the drill bits used in post-installed anchorage applications.

JAE,

The specification applies to an anchor bolt set that was installed during construction of a project in Turlock, CA. I think the bolt spec may be a Canadian or British standard??

Taro,

The application appears to be threaded anchor bolts with a 90 degree bend at their lower termination. From what I know of drill bit steel, it would be too brittle to permit such a bend. Do you know what the ANSI specification document number is?

Thanks for the posts.
