    This document provides guidance on designing anchorages for the petrochemical industry. It discusses that anchor bolt design in petrochemical foundations involves large diameter bolts to transfer loads from tall, heavy structures subjected to wind and seismic forces. The size of the concrete members is often limited by space restrictions from piping and electrical equipment. It recommends identifying critical design steps and providing reinforcing details to allow for safe, economical reinforced concrete designs.

    substantially increase the load capacity of the anchorage.

    Early evaluation of the


    CCD method for typical examples in petrochemical design supports the observation
    of more conservative results and found that, without the use of reinforcing, this
    method would lead to unacceptably conservative concrete member sizes.

    This report is intended to give guidance for design of anchorages found in the
    petrochemical industry. Therefore, based on the observations above, it will identify
    the critical steps in anchor bolt design and will make recommendations for providing
    reinforcing detai Is to provide safe and economical reinforced concrete designs.

    3.2 PETROCHEMICAL ANCHORAGE DESIGN

    Design of foundations in petrochemical design often involves the anchorage of


    tall vessels and structures subjected to heavy wind and seismic forces, resulting in
    large diameter anchor bolts. To transfer the loads from the anchor bolts to the
    reinforced concrete foundation, the embedment length of these anchor bolts can
    sometimes become quite large, and it is not uncommon for these anchor bolts to
    control the depth of the foundation.

    The size of the concrete members in which the anchorage is embedded is often
    limited by the available space, which is often severely restricted by piping and
    electrical conduit, as well as by other foundations and access requirements. Because
    of the size and configurations of anchorages used in the petrochemical industry,
    design decisions often involve different choices not found in other industries. The
    flow chart shown in Figure 3.2 shows the design path that an engineer typically
    follows when designing an anchorage to concrete using a headed bolt.

    3.3 BOLT CONFIGURATION AND DIMENSIONS (

    r
    3.3.1 Bolt Configuration t

    The bolt configuration consists of either a headed bolt or a steel rod with threads
    on each end. ASTM A36 rods have one nut tack welded to rod at the end which is
    embedded in concrete. For high strength material which is not weldable (such as
    ASTM A193), two nuts are provided at the end embedded in concrete. The two nuts
    are jammed together before bolt installation to prevent loosening when the top nut is
    tightened.
    3
    AC1349-90, Section B4.5.2 does not differentiate between ASTM A36, A307 and
    high strength bolts. For high strength bolt assemblies such as ASTM A193, due to
    the very high bearing stress at the nut, it is recommended that a standard washer, of a
    material compatible with the threaded rod material, be used. See Section 3.6.4 for d
    washer requirements at high strength bolts. tl
