I would like to use 1/2" stainless steel all-thread rod for anchors
bolts in the steel array frame . This is in a very public educational
setting and I am concerned about corrosion in the concrete effecting the
stability of the frame. My structural engineer said that would be fine
as long as the rod was equal or higher than ASTM 36. Can anyone help me
evaluate that?
The only Fastenal specs offered on the rod are that the tensile strength
is 75,000psi min, Yield of 30,000psi min and a core hardness min of HRB80.
Thanks for your help.
