Torque requirements for anchor rods

In case anyone is interested we contacted AISC who informed us that they have no requirement for applying a set torque force to anchor rods.
An internet search, however, reveals that many state DOT's do require a known torque to be applied to anchor bolts.
We're assuming that our structure is more akin to a building than a bridge therefore no torque specification is required.
