Anchor Bolt Calculator

Calculate pullout and shear capacity of anchor bolts embedded in concrete.

How to Use the Anchor Bolt Calculator

  1. Enter the bolt diameter in mm.
  2. Enter the embedment depth in mm.
  3. Enter the concrete compressive strength in MPa.
  4. Click Calculate to get pullout and shear capacities.

Casi d'Uso

Formula

Pullout = π × d × hef × ft / 1000 kN, where ft = 0.33√fc. Shear = 0.6 × Pullout.

Domande Frequenti

What is embedment depth?
The embedment depth (hef) is the length of the bolt embedded in concrete, measured from the surface.
What concrete strength should I use?
Use the characteristic compressive strength (fc'). Common values: 20, 25, 30, 40 MPa.
Is this suitable for all anchor types?
This is a simplified estimate for cast-in-place bolts. Post-installed anchors need manufacturer data.
