Hi. Do we have an anchor solution for wood-to-wood light duty connection? (44mm thick wood to be connected to 50mm thick wood, remaining anchor length to be attached on concrete is 26mm). please see attached file for assembly details.

Recently we have noticed that the report for anchor bolt design doesn't display utilization ratio at the summary on page 2, where as it is calculated as usual at the end of the page where combined check is done. In section 1.1 where summary of all load cases are given the utilization ratio appears as (infinity).

Could you share with me the approved BEM CPD certificate?

The Profis was presented to me before but I hope to have a more elaborate presentation on its application, particularly on how to use it.

We buy a lot of HILTI anchor and use HILTI Pull Out Test Kit for testing on site. While we have a few different brands of anchor bolt, can it be tested with the test kit?

Is there a potential solution for firestop to protect big electrical panels/boxes from smoke and fire, similar to CP 617 Firestop Putty pad? Thank you in advance!

What is the material property of the coating on CP 670 Board? Is there any available UL reference using CP 670 for large openings?

What is the advantage of using firestop mortar as compared to concrete in closing annular gaps for thru penetration pipes?

Why does Expansion Anchors such as HST3 & HSL4 (of certain diameters) does not have pullout capacity in Profis Engineering. Please elaborate explanation on the ESR "pullout strength in tension need not be evaluated".

Is there a limitation of grout with respect to temperature changes? Normally these grouts loose strength when exposed to higher temperature.
