2.0 USES
Bosch fasteners are used to attach miscellaneous building
components to base materials of normalweight concrete,
steel deck panels with sand-lightweight concrete fill,
concrete masonry or structural steel. The fasteners are
alternatives to the cast-in-place anchors described in IBC
Section 1901.3 (2012 IBC Section 1908) for placement in
concrete; the embedded anchors described in Section 8.1.3
of TMS 402, referenced in Section 2107 of the IBC (Section
2.1.4 of TMS 402-11, referenced in Section 2107 of the
2012 IBC) for placement in masonry; and the welds and
bolts used to attach materials to steel, described in IBC
Sections 2204.1 and 2204.2, respectively. For structures
regulated under the IRC, the fasteners may be used where
an engineered design is submitted in accordance with IRC
Section R301.1.3.
3.0 DESCRIPTION
3.1 Fasteners:
Bosch fasteners are power-actuated fasteners (PAFs)
manufactured from carbon steel which is hardened in
accordance with the manufacturer’s quality documentation.
The minimum specified core hardness for the fastener is
53 HRC. The fasteners have zinc plating. See Table 1 for
shank type and fastener dimensions. Maximum point length
is the maximum specified length from the tip of the fastener
to the location where the diameter of the shank becomes
constant. Minimum effective shank length is the minimum
specified length from the underside of the fastener head to
the tip of the fastener.
3.2 Substrate Materials:
3.2.1 Concrete: Uncracked normalweight and sand-
lightweight concrete must comply with IBC Chapter 19 or
IRC Section R402.2, as applicable. The minimum concrete
compressive strength at the time of fastener installation
must be as noted in the applicable allowable load table.
3.2.2 Concrete Masonry: Concrete masonry units
(CMUs) must be uncracked lightweight units complying with
ASTM C90, having a face shell thickness of 1.25 inches
(32 mm).
3.2.3 Steel: Structural steel supports must comply with the
minimum requirements of ASTM A36 or ASTM A572 Grade
50, as applicable, and must have minimum thickness as
noted in Tables 2A and 2B, as applicable.
3.2.4 Steel Deck Panels: Steel deck panel properties and
configurations must be as described in footnote 4 of Tables
4A and 4B and Figures 5 and 6.
4.0 DESIGN AND INSTALLATION
4.1 Design:
4.1.1 General: Selection of fasteners must take into
consideration the applicable base material and the length of
the fastener. The minimum fastener length must be
determined as follows:
ESR-4893
|
Most Widely Accepted and Trusted Page 2 of 10
• For installation into concrete, concrete-filled steel deck
panels, concrete masonry and steel base materials,
the minimum effective shank length shown in Table 1
must equal or exceed the sum of the thickness of the
attached material and the minimum embedment depth
(penetration) shown in the applicable tables in this
report.
• For installation through steel base materials, the
minimum effective shank length shown in Table 1 must
equal or exceed the sum of the following: the thickness
of the attached material, the thickness of the base
material and the required point penetration beyond the
base material as shown in the applicable tables in this
report.
4.1.2 Allowable Loads: The applicable allowable load
tables for Bosch power-actuated fasteners driven into
different base materials are shown in Table 1.
The most critical applied loads, excluding seismic load
effects, resulting from the load combinations in Section 2.4
of ASCE 7-16/S1 (referenced in 2021 IBC Section 1605.1)
or 2021 IBC Section 1605.2 (Section 1605.3.1 or 1605.3.2
of the 2018, 2015 and 2012 IBC) must not exceed the
allowable loads in Tables 2 through 5 of this report. For
fasteners which are subjected to seismic loads, see Section
4.1.5 for additional information. The stress increases and
load reductions described in 2021 IBC Section 1605.2
(2018, 2015 and 2012 IBC Section 1605.3) are not allowed.
Allowable shear loads and tension loads in this report
apply to the connection of the fastener to the base material
only. Other limit states applicable to the design of a
connection, such as fastener pull-through (pull-over) and
lateral bearing on the attached material, which are governed
by the properties of attached materials, are outside the
scope of this report. Design of the connection to the
attached material must comply with the applicable
requirements of the IBC.
4.1.3 Combined Loading: For fasteners subjected to both
tension and shear loads, compliance with the following
interaction equation must be verified:
(p/P
a
) + (v/V
a
) ≤ 1
where:
p = Actual applied tension load on fastener, lbf (N).
P
a
= Allowable tension load on fastener, lbf (N).
v = Actual applied shear load on fastener, lbf (N).
V
a
= Allowable shear load on fastener, lbf (N).
4.1.4 Steel-to-steel Connections: When the Bosch
fasteners listed in Tables 2A and 2B are used in connections
of two steel elements in direct contact with one another and
in accordance with Section J5 of AISI S100 (Section E5 of
AISI S100-12 for the 2015 and 2012 IBC), connection
capacity must be determined in accordance with Sections
4.1.4.1 and 4.1.4.2, as applicable.
4.1.4.1 Connection Strength—Tension: To determine
tensile connection strength in accordance with Section J5.2
of AISI S100 (Section E5.2 of AISI S100-12), fastener
tension strength, the pull-out strength and the pull-over
strength must be known. These characteristics must be
determined as follows:
• Pull-out Strength: See Table 2A or 2B for available
pull-out strength, as applicable.
• Pull-over Strength: The available pull-over strengths
must be calculated in accordance with Section J5.2.3
of AISI S100 (Section E5.2.3 of AISI S100-12).
• PAF Tensile Strength: The allowable fastener tension
strengths must be determined in accordance with
Section J5.2.1 of AISI S100 (Section E5.2.1 of AISI
S100-12).
4.1.4.2 Connection Strength—Shear: To determine
shear connection strength in accordance with Section J5.3
of AISI S100 (Section E5.3 of AISI S100-12), the fastener
shear strength, bearing and tilting strength, pull-out strength
in shear, net section rupture strength and shear strength
limited by edge distance must be known. These
characteristics must be determined as follows:
• Bearing and Tilting Strength: The available bearing
and tilting strengths must be calculated in accordance
with Section J5.3.2 of AISI S100 (Section E5.3.2 of
AISI S100-12).
• Pull-out Strength in Shear: The available pull-out
strength in shear must be the applicable allowable
shear strength from Table 2A or 2B or must be
calculated in accordance with Section J5.3.3 of AISI
S100 (Section E5.3.3 of AISI S100-12).
• Net Section Rupture Strength and Shear Strength
Limited by Edge Distance: The net section rupture
strength must be determined in accordance with
Section J5.3.4 of AISI S100 (Section E5.3.4 of AISI
S100-12) and the shear strength limited by edge
distance must be determined in accordance with
Section J5.3.5 of AISI S100 (Section E5.3.5 of AISI
S100-12).
• PAF Shear Strength: The allowable fastener shear
strengths must be determined in accordance with
Section J5.3.1 of AISI S100 (Section E5.3.1 of AISI
S100-12).
4.1.5 Seismic Considerations: When subjected to
seismic loads, the Bosch fasteners may be used as follows:
1. The Bosch fasteners may be used for attachment of
nonstructural components listed in Section 13.1.4 of
ASCE/SEI 7, which are exempt from the requirements
of ASCE/SEI 7.
2. Concrete base materials: The Bosch fasteners
installed in concrete may be used to support distributed
systems and distribution systems where the service
load on any individual fastener does not exceed the
lesser of 90 lbf (400 N) or the allowable load shown in
Tables 3, 4A and 4B, as applicable.
3. Steel base materials: The Bosch fasteners may be
used for attaching nonstructural components where
the service load on any individual fastener does not
exceed the lesser of 250 lbf (1112 N) or the published
allowable load shown in Table 2A or 2B, as applicable.
4. For interior, nonstructural walls that are not subject to
sustained tension loads and are not a bracing
application, the power-actuated fasteners may be used
to attach steel track to concrete or steel in all Seismic
Design Categories. In Seismic Design Categories D, E
and F, the allowable shear load due to transverse
pressure must be no more than the allowable load
described in Item 2 when attaching to concrete; or the
allowable load described in Item 3, above, when
attaching to steel. Substantiating calculations must be
submitted addressing the fastener-to-base-material
capacity and the fastener-to-attached-material
capacity. Interior nonstructural walls are limited to
locations where bearing walls, shear walls or braced
walls are not required by the approved plans. The
design load on the fastener must not exceed the
allowable load established in this report for the
concrete or steel base material.
