Base Plate Calculation

This document contains specifications for base plate and anchor bolt design including material properties, dimensions, loads, and strengths. It provides the calculations to determine the required base plate thickness, bolt area, and roots of the characteristic equation to check design adequacy. The three real roots of the equation were determined to be 2.57, -11.892, and -6.617.
