[TowerTalk] Installing new anchor bolts in existing foundation

Also look at http://www.us.hilti.com/holus/modules/home/home_main.jsp

They make professional anchoring system of the type you need. Anchors
available include standard carbon steel, stainless, and alloy steel for the
strongest anchors. They have a table to provide the allowable (read: ASTM
service rating) loads for tension and shear as a function of depth, bolt
size and material (both anchor and concrete). If you are not experienced at
doing that sort of thing, look into having a professional coring company do
it to get the precision and quality you want.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Installing new anchor bolts in existing foundation

I have an existing Concrete foundation (13Yds of 4000 PSI Concrete) that I
need to install Anchor Bolts for an HDX-572.

I have read in the archives some mention of Epoxy and Mechanical Anchors.

Let me know what has been used and what is best practice.

Also...Where can I find the 1 Inch Threaded Rod (Assume Galvanized) that I
need?  Recommended Depth of the rod?

Thanks...
Rich
