Design of Anchor Bolts : Calcul des boulons d'ancrage :

Diameter of the anchor bolt = 30 mm

Maximum tension in one bolt = 4694 daN

Allowable stress in the bolts S235 = 22.5 daN/mm2
Allowable force in the bolt = 10098 daN > 4694 daN

Hence ok

Average pressure on the concrete : Pression moyenne sur be'ton :
