I am trying to design a steel beam to concrete column connection with headed studs. The building is in a highly seismic area and the axial load caused by seismic effect is massive so I am trying to provide tension reinforcement to transfer the load to reinforcement, rather than use the concrete strength. I have found various examples but I am struggling to find the source of the reference shown in the image. I need to find the code reference as this calculation assumed a low seismic risk, whereas my design is high seismic risk.
Note: This example is quite old so uses an old version of ACI 318 (I assume 2008)
EDIT: We came up with a solution to weld deformed bars to the plate which would allow enough room for the bars to develop.
