1. The tabulated allowable loads are based on a safety factor of 5.0 for installations under the IBC and IRC.
2. Listed loads may be applied to installations through a face shell with the following placement guidelines:
   • a. Minimum 3" from vertical mortal joint.
   • b. Minimum 1" from vertical cell centerline.
3. Values for 8-inch wide concrete masonry units (CMU) with a minimum specified compressive strength of masonry,
   f'_m, at 28 days is 1500 psi.
4. Embedment depth is measured from the outside face of the concrete masonry unit.
5. Drill bit diameter used in base material corresponds to nominal anchor diameter.
6. Allowable loads may not be increased for short-term loading due to wind or seismic forces.
