Shelf Angle Directly Bolted to Concrete with Brick Ties
  • Mark Hagel

    Updated at: Oct 16, 2025

  • Description

    App for the design of a steel shelf angle for masonry veneer anchored to concrete with posted installed anchor bolts. The force method is used to determine reactions and deflection of the indeterminate structure per bolt (using the bolt spacing as Tributary Width) A partial moment connection is assumed that scales down the value of Em (to mimic the effects of a rotational stiffness spring) to 1/20th of Em. The effect of the reduction to Em is a reduction in the tension force in the ties and an increase in the horizontal leg deflection and is calibrated to deflection obtained from recent testing.
