Better Base Plate Designs in 60 Minutes [E17]
Let's talk about base plates and anchor rods. Do you understand all the design philosophies at play? We'll consider questions like:
- Is grout that important?
- Are there any reliable rules of thumb I can use?
- Are my analytical models telling me the whole story?
- What spring constant do I use to simulate concrete?
- How do I model anchor rods to best simulate actual conditions?
- Do I need to consider prying action?
- How are the forces distributed to the anchor rods?
- Does the location of the anchor rod relative to the center of action matter?
