1. For all design cases Ψc,P = 1.0. For concrete compressive strength greater than 20.68 MPa [3,000 psi], Npn=(pullout strength value from table) * (specified concrete compressive
strength/20.68)n. For all anchors n=1/2 with exception of the 3/8-inch-diameter anchor size, where n=1/3.
2. Values for Np,deck are for sand-lightweight concrete (f'c, min = 3,000 psi) and additional lightweight concrete reduction factors need not be applied. In addition, evaluation for the concrete breakout
capacity in accordance with ACI 318-19 17.6.2, ACI 318-14 17.4.2 or ACI 318 D.5.2 and CSA A23.3 (-19, -14, -04) Annex D, as applicable, is not required for anchors installed in the deck
soffit (flute).
3. Values for Np,deck,cr are applicable for seismic loading.
4. Shear loads for anchors installed through steel deck into concrete may be applied in any direction.

1- Tabular values are provided for illustration and are applicable for single anchors installed in normal-weight concrete with minimum slab thickness, ha = hmin, and with
the following conditions:
- ca1 is greater than or equal to the critical edge distance, cac (table values based on ca1 = cac).
- ca2 is greater than or equal to 1.5 times ca1.
2- Calculations were performed following methodology in CSA A23.3 (-19,-14,-04), Annex D. The load level corresponding to the failure mode listed (e.g. For tension:
steel, concrete breakout and pullout; For shear: steel, concrete breakout and pryout). Furthermore, the capacities for concrete breakout strength in tension and pryout
in shear are calculated using the effective embedment values, hef, for the selected anchors as noted in the design information tables. Please also reference the
installation specifications for more information.
3- Material Resistance factors (ø) are in accorance with CSA A23.3 (-19,-14,-04) Annex D, Sections 8.4.2 and 8.4.3. Mondification Factors (R) are in accordance with
CSA A23.3 (-19,-14,-04) Annex D, Section D.5.3 Condition B; it is assumed that supplementary reinforcement not present. Material resistance factors for steel
strength are taken as 0.85 for tension and shear; Modification factors are taken as 0.80 for Tension and 0.75 for Shear; values correspond to ductile steel elements.

TECHNICAL GUIDE – CANADIAN SUPPLEMENT – Mechanical Anchors ©2024 DEWALT – REV. d

4- Tabular values are permitted for short-term static loads only, seismic loading is not considered with these tables.
5- For designs that include combined tension and shear, the interaction of tension and shear loads must be calculated in accordance with CSA A23.3 (-19,-14,-04) Annex
D, Section D.8.
6- Interpolation is not permitted to be used with the tabular values. For intermediate base material compressive strengths, please see CSA A23.3 Annex D and information
contained in this product supplement. For other design conditions including seismic considerations please see CSA A23.3 Annex D.
