SB Anchor Bolt
On This Page
Product Details
The SB anchor bolt offers an anchorage solution for our holdowns that call for a 5/8"-diameter, a 7/8"-diameter and a 1"-diameter anchor.
SB anchor bolts are code listed by ICC-ES under the 2012/2015/2018 IBC and IRC.
Key Features
- Identification on the bolt head showing embedment angle and model
- Sweep geometry to optimize position in form
- Rolled thread for higher tensile capacity
- Hex nuts and plate washer fixed in position
- Available in HDG for additional corrosion resistance
Material
- ASTM F-1554, Grade 36
Finish
- None. May be ordered HDG; contact Simpson Strong-Tie.
Installation
- SB is only for concrete applications poured monolithically except where noted.
- Top nuts and washers for holdown attachment are not supplied with the SB; install standard nuts, couplers and/or washers as required.
- On HDG SB anchors, chase the threads to use standard nuts or couplers or use overtapped products in accordance with ASTM A563, for example Simpson Strong-Tie NUT5/8-OST, NUT7/8-OST and NUT1-OST, CNW5/8-OST, CNW7/8-OST and CNW1-OST.
- Install SB before the concrete pour using AnchorMate® anchor bolt holders. Install the SB per the plan view detail.
- Minimum concrete compressive strength is 2,500 psi.
- When rebar is required it does not need to be tied to the SB.

- Rebar is required at the top of stem wall foundations, but is not required for slab-on-grade edge and garage curb, or stem wall garage front installations.
- Minimum end distances for SB bolts are as shown in graphics.
- To obtain LRFD values, multiply ASD seismic load values by 1.4 and wind load values by 1.67 (1.6 for 2012 IBC).
- Per Section 1613 of the IBC, detached one- and two-story dwellings in SDC C may use "Wind and SDC A&B" allowable loads.
- Midwall loads apply when anchor is 1.5 le or greater from the end. For bolts acting in tension simultaneously, the minimum bolt center-to-center spacing is 3 le.
- Full catalog loads apply for two-pour installation for slab-on-grade: edge.
