ACI - Anchor tension reinforcement

An example of an ACI-Tension anchor reinforcement model demonstrating the use of vertical hairpins to effectively transfer tensile forces into the concrete block. This approach ensures proper load path continuity and helps prevent premature concrete breakout or anchor failure.

For a complete assessment, we recommend evaluating the anchors in IDEA StatiCa Connection and then the concrete block, including reinforcement, in IDEA StatiCa Detail.
