Please be advised as follows: - It has been requested to change from a single HD19 holdown, to multiple holdowns utilizing 1” diameter rods at gridline B/4. - It is our understanding that this corner has a rebar cage with at least (4) #4 verts around this corner - It is permissible to use (2) HDU11 holdowns at this location in lieu of the single HD19 holdown. Install per manufacturer specifications. Both holdowns are to be connected into the same 6x8 post. The 1” anchor bolts are to extend a minimum of 18” down into the concrete wall, to lap adequately with the vertical reinforcement. - Refer to the attached sketch and supporting calculations. The recommendations above are provided based upon our review of calculations and drawings generated from information the client provided. A representative from Vector has not visited the construction site. No observation was made of the structural integrity, materials used or quality of work of any portion of the structure. We hope this meets your needs. If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please call this office at your convenience.
