Determine if a single 12" diameter carbon-steel Strong-Bolt 2 torquecontrolled expansion anchor with a minimum 3 78" embedment
(hef = 3 38 inches) installed 4" from the edge of a 12" deep spandrel
beam is adequate for a strength level tension load of 1,600 lb. for wind
and a reversible strength level shear load of 560 lb. for wind. The anchor
will be in the tension zone, away from other anchors in fc = 3,000 psi
normal-weight concrete.

12. Summary
A single 12" diameter carbon-steel Strong-Bolt 2 anchor
at a 3 78" embedment depth is adequate to resist the
applied strength level tension and shear wind loads of 1,600 lb.
and 560 lb., respectively.
