TheTitenHD® anchor is a patented, high-strength screw anchor for concrete and masonry. It is designed for optimum performance in both cracked and uncracked concrete; a requirement thatthe2009IBCplacesonpost-installedanchors.Thehighstrength,easytoinstallTitenHDanchor has been tested and shown to provide outstanding performance in cracked and uncracked concrete under both static and seismic loading conditions. The self-undercutting, non-expansion characteristicsoftheTitenHDanchormakeitidealforstructuralapplications,evenatreducededgedistances and spacings. Recommended for permanent dry, interior non-corrosive environments or temporary outdoor applications.

PERFORMANCE FEATURES: • TestedperAC193to ensure outstanding performance in both cracked and uncracked concrete • Higherloadcapacityandvibrationresistance:Threadsalongthelengthoftheanchor

TEST CRiTERiA: TheTitenHD® anchor has been tested in accordance with ICC-ES AC193, ACI 355.2 and ICC-ES AC106 for the following: • Statictensionandshearloadingincrackedanduncrackedconcrete • Seismicandwindloadingincrackedanduncrackedconcrete • PerformanceinuncrackedmasonryAnchorFatigueTesting:TestedinaccordancewithASTME488fortheeffectsoffatigue.25%ofthe average ultimate load was applied to the anchor for 2 million cycles at a frequency of 15 Hz. Subsequent load tests showed no reduction in ultimate tension capacity. Vibratory Load Testing: A 150 lb. concrete block was suspended from a 3⁄8" diameter anchor embedded at 1 1⁄2" and vibrated for 12.6 million cycles at a frequency of 30 Hz and an amplitude of 0.0325 inches. Subsequent load test showed no reduction in ultimate tension capacity. FieldTesting:ForguidanceonfieldtestingseetechnicalbulletinT-SAS-THDINSP.

iNSTAllATiON: Holes in metal fixtures to be mounted should match the diameter specified in the table on the next page.

Caution: Oversized holes in the base material will reduce or eliminate the mechanical interlock ofthethreadswiththebasematerialandwillreducetheanchor'sloadcapacity.UseaTitenHDscrew anchor one time only. Installing the anchor multiple times may result in excessive thread wear and reduce load capacity.

•Drillaholeinthebasematerialusingacarbidedrillbitthesamediameterasthenominaldiameteroftheanchortobeinstalled.Drilltheholetothespecifiedembedmentdepthplus1⁄2" minimum to allow the thread tapping dust to settle and blow it clean using compressed air. Overhead installations need not be blown clean. Alternatively, drill the hole deep enough to accommodate embedment depth and dust from drilling and tapping.

•Insert the anchor through the fixture and into the hole.•Tighten the anchor into the base material until the hex washer head contacts the fixture.•DonotuseimpactwrenchestoinstallintohollowCMU.

SUGGESTED SPECiFiCATiONS: Screw anchors shall have 360-degree contact with the base material and shall not require oversized holes for installation. Fasteners shall be manufactured from carbon steel, and are heat-treated. Anchors shall be zinc plated in accordance with ASTM B633 or mechanically galvanized in accordance with ASTM B695.

1. The tabulated allowable loads are based on a safety factor of 5.0 for installations under the IBC and IRC. 2. Values for 8-inch wide, lightweight, medium-weight, and normal-weight CMU.3. The minimum specified compressive strength of masonry, f'c, at 28 days is 1,500 psi.

4. Embedment depth is measured from the outside face of the concrete masonry unit and is based on the anchor being embedded an additional 1⁄4" through the 1 1⁄4" thick face shell.

5. Allowable loads may not be increased for short-term loading due to wind or seismic forces. CMU wall design must satisfy applicable design standards and be capable of withstanding applied loads.

TheTitenHD® rod hanger is a high-strength screw anchor designed to suspend threaded rod from concrete slabs and beams in order to hang pipes, cable tray and HVAC equipment. This anchor is code listed by ICC-ES for cracked and uncracked concrete applications under the 2009 IBC.

FEATURES:• High-load capacity as a result of the full-length threads that undercut the

concrete and effectively transfer load into the base material• Specialized heat-treating process creates greater hardness at the tip to

facilitate cutting while the body remains ductile• Serrated cutting teeth and patented thread design enable quick and easy

installation• No special installation tools required. Holes can be drilled with a rotary

hammer or hammer drill with standard ANSI-size bit. Anchors are installed with standard-size sockets.

SIMPSON STRONG-TIE TITEN HD® SCREW ANCHORS 1.0 EVALUATION SCOPE

Compliance with the following codes:

2012, 2009 and 2006 International Building Code® (IBC)

2012, 2009 and 2006 International Residential Code® (IRC)

Property evaluated:

Structural

2.0 USES

The Titen HD® screw anchor is for installation in predrilled holes in fully grouted concrete masonry wall construction.

The Titen HD screw anchors are alternatives to cast-in-place anchors described in Section 2107 of the IBC (TMS 402) for concrete masonry construction.

The anchors are permitted to be used in structures regulated by the IRC, provided an engineered design is submitted in accordance with IRC Section R301.1.3.

3.0 DESCRIPTION

3.1 Materials:

3.1.1 Titen HD Screw Anchor: The Titen HD screw anchor is a carbon steel threaded anchor with a hex-washer head. The screw anchor is manufactured from heat-treated steel complying with SAE J403 Grade 10B21, and has either an electrodeposited coating of zinc in accordance with ASTM B633, Service Condition SC1, Type III; or a mechanically deposited coating of zinc in accordance with ASTM B695, Class 55, Type I.

Titen HD screw anchors are available with nominally 3/8-,

1/2-, 5/8-, and 3/4-inch (9.5, 12.7, 15.9 and 19.1 mm)

shank diameters, and with various lengths for multiple

embedments as noted in the tables in this report. Refer to Figure 1 for an illustration of a typical screw anchor.

3.1.2 Grout-filled Concrete Masonry: The specified compressive strength of masonry, f’m, at 28 days must be a minimum of 1,500 psi (10.3 MPa). Fully grouted masonry walls must be constructed from the following materials:

3.1.2.1 Concrete Masonry Units (CMUs): CMUs must be minimum Grade N, Type II, lightweight, medium-weight, or normal-weight, closed-end, conforming to ASTM C90. The minimum allowable nominal size of the CMU must be 8 inches wide by 8 inches high by 16 inches long.

3.1.2.2 Grout: Grout must comply with IBC Section 2013.13 (2012 IBC), Section 2103.12 (2009 and 2006 IBC) or IRC Section R609.1.1, as applicable. Alternatively, the grout must have a minimum compressive strength when tested in accordance with ASTM C1019 equal to its specified strength, but not less than 2,000 psi (13.8 MPa).

3.1.2.3 Mortar: Mortar must be Type M or S in compliance with IBC Section 2103.9 (2012 IBC), Section 2103.8 (2009 and 2006 IBC) or IRC Section R607, as applicable.

3.2 Design:

3.2.1 General: Anchors described in this report are assigned allowable tension and shear loads for designs based on allowable stress design (working stress design). Use of the anchors to resist vibratory and moving loads, such as those produced by reciprocating engines, cranes and vehicles, is beyond the scope of this report.

3.2.2 Design of Anchors Installed in Fully Grouted CMU Masonry: Allowable tension and shear loads for anchors installed in the face of fully grouted uncracked CMU masonry are noted in Table 1 for structures complying with the IBC or IRC. The allowable tension and shear loads are for anchors installed in the grouted cells, the center web of CMU units, and horizontal mortared bed joints of fully grouted CMU masonry construction. Allowable loads for anchors installed in the vertical head joint or the end flanges of the CMU units are outside the scope of this report. Edge and end distances, and spacing requirements for anchors installed in the face of fully grouted CMU masonry, as shown in Figure 2, are noted in Table 1. Allowable load reduction factors for anchors installed at reduced edge distances, and reduced spacing, are noted in Tables 2 and 3.

Allowable tension and shear loads for 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch (12.7 mm and 15.9 mm) anchors installed in the top of fully grouted concrete masonry (CMU grouted cores

ESR-1056 | Most Widely Accepted and Trusted Page 2 of 5

and CMU webs), are noted in Table 4 for anchors installed in structures complying with the IBC or IRC.

Allowable loads for anchors installed in the face of fully grouted CMU masonry walls subjected to combined shear and tension forces must be determined by the following equation:

1.0

where:

Ps = Applied service tension load.

Pt = Allowable service tension load.

Vs = Applied service shear load.

Vt = Allowable service shear load.

4.0 INSTALLATION

Titen HD screw anchors must be installed by drilling a pilot hole into the substrate using a handheld electro-pneumatic rotary hammer drill with a carbide-tipped drill bit conforming to ANSI B212.15-1994. The pilot hole must have the same diameter as the nominal diameter of the anchor. The hole is drilled to the specified embedment depth plus 1/2 inch (12.7 mm). Dust and debris in the hole must be removed by using oil-free compressed air. The Titen HD screw anchor must be installed into the hole to the required embedment using a socket wrench or powered impact wrench.

4.1 Installation in Fully Grouted CMU Masonry: Anchors installed in the face of fully grouted CMU construction must be limited to the face shell of the CMU unit (center web and grouted cores) and the horizontal mortared bed joints, as indicated by the shaded areas in Figure 2. Anchors installed in a T-joint, the mortared head joint, or the end webs of a CMU unit, as indicated in the non-shaded areas in Figure 2, are outside the scope of this report.

For anchors installed in the top of fully grouted concrete masonry (CMU grouted cores and CMU webs), anchor location must comply with the minimum edge and end distances noted in Table 4 and shown in Figure 3. Anchors installed in the mortared head joint are outside the scope of this report.

4.2 Installation with Special Inspection (When Required):

Anchors must be installed with special inspection. For the IBC and IRC, special inspection must conform to Sections 1704 and 1705 of the IBC

For fasteners installed with special inspection, the following items, as applicable, must be inspected: fastener type and dimensions; masonry unit type and compliance with ASMT C90; grout and mortar compressive strengths, and (when required) masonry prism compressive strength; drill bit size and compliance with ANSI B212.15-1994; and fastener embedment, spacing, and edge (and end) distances. The special inspector must inspect and verify that anchor installation complies with this evaluation report and Simpson Strong-Tie Company’s published installation instructions.

5.0 CONDITIONS OF USE

The Titen HD Screw Anchors described in this report comply with, or are suitable alternatives to what is specified in, the codes listed in Section 1.0 of this report, subject to the following conditions:

5.1 Anchors are identified and installed in accordance with this report and the manufacturer’s published installation instructions.

5.2 Anchors installed in the face or the top of fully grouted CMU masonry to resist dead, live, wind, and earthquake load applications must be in accordance with Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2.

5.3 Grouted Masonry under IBC or IRC: The anchors described in the evaluation report are capable of resisting seismic and wind loads. When using the basic load combinations in accordance with IBC Section 1605.3.1, allowable loads are not permitted to be increased for seismic or wind loading. When using the alternative basic load combinations in IBC Section 1605.3.2 that include seismic or wind loads, the allowable shear and tension loads for anchors are permitted to be increased by 331/3 percent, or the alternative basic load combinations may be multiplied by a factor of 0.75. The allowable stress increase or load reduction is not permitted under 2012 codes.

5.4 Fatigue and Shock Loading: Since an ICC-ES acceptance criteria is evaluating data to determine the performance of screw anchors subjected to fatigue or shock loading is unavailable at this time, the use of these anchors under these conditions is beyond the scope of this report.

5.5 Fire-resistive Construction: Where not otherwise prohibited by the applicable code, anchors are permitted for use with fire-resistance-rated construction provided that at least one of the following conditions is fulfilled.

Anchors are used to resist wind or seismic forces only.

Anchors that support fire-resistance-rated construction or gravity load-bearing structural elements are within a fire-resistance-rated envelope or a fire-resistance-rated membrane, are protected by approved fire-resistance-rated materials, or have been evaluated for resistance to fire exposure in accordance with recognized standards.

Anchors are used to support nonstructural elements.

5.6 Cracked Masonry: Since an ICC-ES acceptance criteria for evaluating the performance of screw anchors in cracked masonry is unavailable at this time, the use of anchors is limited to installation in uncracked masonry. Cracking occurs when ft fr due to service loads or deformations.

5.7 Anchors are installed in substrates in holes predrilled with carbide-tipped masonry drill bits complying with ANSI B212.15-1994, and having the same diameter as the nominal diameter of the anchor.

5.8 Calculations demonstrating that the applied loads are less than the allowable loads described in this report, must be submitted to the building official. The calculations must be prepared by a registered design professional where required by the statutes of the jurisdiction in which the project is to be constructed.

5.9 Special inspection, when required, must be provided in accordance with Section 4.2.

5.10 Anchors are limited to dry, interior use.


5.11 The Titen HD screw anchors are manufactured by Simpson Strong-Tie Company under a quality control program with inspections by ICC-ES.

3.0 DESCRIPTION

3.1 Materials:

3.1.1 Titen HD Screw Anchor: The Titen HD screw anchor is a carbon steel threaded anchor with a hex-washer head. The screw anchor is manufactured from heat-treated steel complying with SAE J403 Grade 10B21, and has either an electrodeposited coating of zinc in accordance with ASTM B633, Service Condition SC1, Type III; or a mechanically deposited coating of zinc in accordance with ASTM B695, Class 55, Type I.

Titen HD screw anchors are available with nominally 3/8-,

1/2-, 5/8-, and 3/4-inch (9.5, 12.7, 15.9 and 19.1 mm)

shank diameters, and with various lengths for multiple

embedments as noted in the tables in this report. Refer to Figure 1 for an illustration of a typical screw anchor.

3.1.2 Grout-filled Concrete Masonry: The specified compressive strength of masonry, f’m, at 28 days must be a minimum of 1,500 psi (10.3 MPa). Fully grouted masonry walls must be constructed from the following materials:

3.1.2.1 Concrete Masonry Units (CMUs): CMUs must be minimum Grade N, Type II, lightweight, medium-weight, or normal-weight, closed-end, conforming to ASTM C90. The minimum allowable nominal size of the CMU must be 8 inches wide by 8 inches high by 16 inches long.

3.1.2.2 Grout: Grout must comply with IBC Section 2013.13 (2012 IBC), Section 2103.12 (2009 and 2006 IBC) or IRC Section R609.1.1, as applicable. Alternatively, the grout must have a minimum compressive strength when tested in accordance with ASTM C1019 equal to its specified strength, but not less than 2,000 psi (13.8 MPa).

3.1.2.3 Mortar: Mortar must be Type M or S in compliance with IBC Section 2103.9 (2012 IBC), Section 2103.8 (2009 and 2006 IBC) or IRC Section R607, as applicable.

3.2 Design:

3.2.1 General: Anchors described in this report are assigned allowable tension and shear loads for designs based on allowable stress design (working stress design). Use of the anchors to resist vibratory and moving loads, such as those produced by reciprocating engines, cranes and vehicles, is beyond the scope of this report.

3.2.2 Design of Anchors Installed in Fully Grouted CMU Masonry: Allowable tension and shear loads for anchors installed in the face of fully grouted uncracked CMU masonry are noted in Table 1 for structures complying with the IBC or IRC. The allowable tension and shear loads are for anchors installed in the grouted cells, the center web of CMU units, and horizontal mortared bed joints of fully grouted CMU masonry construction. Allowable loads for anchors installed in the vertical head joint or the end flanges of the CMU units are outside the scope of this report. Edge and end distances, and spacing requirements for anchors installed in the face of fully grouted CMU masonry, as shown in Figure 2, are noted in Table 1. Allowable load reduction factors for anchors installed at reduced edge distances, and reduced spacing, are noted in Tables 2 and 3.

and CMU webs), are noted in Table 4 for anchors installed in structures complying with the IBC or IRC.

Allowable loads for anchors installed in the face of fully grouted CMU masonry walls subjected to combined shear and tension forces must be determined by the following equation:

1.0

where:

Ps = Applied service tension load.

Pt = Allowable service tension load.

Vs = Applied service shear load.

Vt = Allowable service shear load.

4.0 INSTALLATION

Titen HD screw anchors must be installed by drilling a pilot hole into the substrate using a handheld electro-pneumatic rotary hammer drill with a carbide-tipped drill bit conforming to ANSI B212.15-1994. The pilot hole must have the same diameter as the nominal diameter of the anchor. The hole is drilled to the specified embedment depth plus 1/2 inch (12.7 mm). Dust and debris in the hole must be removed by using oil-free compressed air. The Titen HD screw anchor must be installed into the hole to the required embedment using a socket wrench or powered impact wrench.

4.1 Installation in Fully Grouted CMU Masonry: Anchors installed in the face of fully grouted CMU construction must be limited to the face shell of the CMU unit (center web and grouted cores) and the horizontal mortared bed joints, as indicated by the shaded areas in Figure 2. Anchors installed in a T-joint, the mortared head joint, or the end webs of a CMU unit, as indicated in the non-shaded areas in Figure 2, are outside the scope of this report.

For anchors installed in the top of fully grouted concrete masonry (CMU grouted cores and CMU webs), anchor location must comply with the minimum edge and end distances noted in Table 4 and shown in Figure 3. Anchors installed in the mortared head joint are outside the scope of this report.

4.2 Installation with Special Inspection (When Required):

Anchors must be installed with special inspection. For the IBC and IRC, special inspection must conform to Sections 1704 and 1705 of the IBC

For fasteners installed with special inspection, the following items, as applicable, must be inspected: fastener type and dimensions; masonry unit type and compliance with ASMT C90; grout and mortar compressive strengths, and (when required) masonry prism compressive strength; drill bit size and compliance with ANSI B212.15-1994; and fastener embedment, spacing, and edge (and end) distances. The special inspector must inspect and verify that anchor installation complies with this evaluation report and Simpson Strong-Tie Company’s published installation instructions.

5.0 CONDITIONS OF USE

The Titen HD Screw Anchors described in this report comply with, or are suitable alternatives to what is specified in, the codes listed in Section 1.0 of this report, subject to the following conditions:

5.1 Anchors are identified and installed in accordance with this report and the manufacturer’s published installation instructions.

5.2 Anchors installed in the face or the top of fully grouted CMU masonry to resist dead, live, wind, and earthquake load applications must be in accordance with Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2.

5.3 Grouted Masonry under IBC or IRC: The anchors described in the evaluation report are capable of resisting seismic and wind loads. When using the basic load combinations in accordance with IBC Section 1605.3.1, allowable loads are not permitted to be increased for seismic or wind loading. When using the alternative basic load combinations in IBC Section 1605.3.2 that include seismic or wind loads, the allowable shear and tension loads for anchors are permitted to be increased by 331/3 percent, or the alternative basic load combinations may be multiplied by a factor of 0.75. The allowable stress increase or load reduction is not permitted under 2012 codes.

5.4 Fatigue and Shock Loading: Since an ICC-ES acceptance criteria is evaluating data to determine the performance of screw anchors subjected to fatigue or shock loading is unavailable at this time, the use of these anchors under these conditions is beyond the scope of this report.

5.5 Fire-resistive Construction: Where not otherwise prohibited by the applicable code, anchors are permitted for use with fire-resistance-rated construction provided that at least one of the following conditions is fulfilled.

Anchors are used to resist wind or seismic forces only.

Anchors that support fire-resistance-rated construction or gravity load-bearing structural elements are within a fire-resistance-rated envelope or a fire-resistance-rated membrane, are protected by approved fire-resistance-rated materials, or have been evaluated for resistance to fire exposure in accordance with recognized standards.

Anchors are used to support nonstructural elements.

5.6 Cracked Masonry: Since an ICC-ES acceptance criteria for evaluating the performance of screw anchors in cracked masonry is unavailable at this time, the use of anchors is limited to installation in uncracked masonry. Cracking occurs when ft fr due to service loads or deformations.

5.7 Anchors are installed in substrates in holes predrilled with carbide-tipped masonry drill bits complying with ANSI B212.15-1994, and having the same diameter as the nominal diameter of the anchor.

5.8 Calculations demonstrating that the applied loads are less than the allowable loads described in this report, must be submitted to the building official. The calculations must be prepared by a registered design professional where required by the statutes of the jurisdiction in which the project is to be constructed.
