Installation

  • Use all specified fasteners.
  • Insert into wet concrete after the pour. For the WE, embed the anchor so that the base plate is flush with the surface of the concrete. For the WAS, embed the anchor until the concrete surface meets the bottom edge of the stand off base legs. This will provide a 1″ stand-off where required.
  • Not recommended for fence posts or other unrestrained (not fixed or fastened at top) applications. These anchors are not designed to resist overturning (moment) loads.
  • Reference IRC R317.1.4, IBC 2304.12.2.2, IRC R407.3, IBC 2304.10.7
