Fasteners Unveils Innovative New Software To
Specify Best Anchors to Meet New IBC Code Requirements Powers
Fasteners, Inc., has developed unique interface software to put technical data
in a real-time environment and help design professionals better visualize,
consider and specify concrete anchors in today’s changing engineering
environment. The
new Powers Design Assist™ (PDA) program also helps clear up confusion about
the new International Building Code (IBC) code requirements for Strength Design
of anchors, according to Powers, which has introduced several anchor products
tested to meet or exceed these latest building codes. The real-time anchor
design software -- developed in accordance with ACI 318 Appendix D -- includes
post-installed and cast-in-place anchor design provisions.
It is available at no cost and features all details design professionals
need to choose the right anchor. To
obtain the PDA software visit www.powersdesignassist.com
and register for your free copy.
Based
in Brewster, New York, Powers Fasteners is a leading supplier of concrete
anchoring systems and offers an extensive line of mechanical and adhesive
anchoring systems, roofing fasteners, gas and powder-actuated tools and

company has been serving professional construction and plant maintenance markets
