hilti hy-20 into hollow cmu ibc approval
i can't find an icc report for hilti hy-20 for use in hollow cmu block. does anyone know if it is acceptable to use this anchor for a 2006 ibc structural application? if so, do you use the hilti capacity data?
does anyone know of any other epoxy anchors that can be used in hollow cmu block?
check out our whitepaper library.
are you sure you understand how an epoxied anchor works?

shallow embedment sleeve anchors are the only ones i use in hollow cmu. i still have a hard time trusting them though.
whenever use manufactured commercial products, you are the one been held responsible for. if this is the first time encounter with that product, as mentioned above, both understanding and data verification are very important steps, unless it is sheltered by reputable organizations. for this case, i think you are on your own.
vand - i am not sure what you are getting at but i assume you are not familiar with the product. it is designed to be used on hollow masonry construction.
black:
my guess is that you are going to be hardpressed to find an icc report on an epoxy anchor into hollow masonry construction. icc reports for the ibc 2006 are few just for the typical conditions. in seminars with hilti and others, i don't think i've heard of any manufacterer persuing such approvals for their epoxies in those conditions.
to answer your other question, read head anchoring has a similar product and i would imagine powers does also.
here is a link to hilti's website where they list icc approval documents
i didn't see one for the hy-20 in the particular case in question...maybe one of the other manufacterers has a report.
btw... apparently i should have someone check my posts for spelling errors.
jae link leads you the way to the report (
