Q: For column anchor rods, what is the allowable variation in horizonal
| | | | | | | | | | | |
variation from the specified location of a 2" diameter anchor bolt?
| | | | | | | | | |
1) 1/4" or less
| | |
2) 1/8" or less
| | |
3) 1/16" or less

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
thickness be? |
1) 1/4"
|
, 2) 1"
|
3) 4.5 cm
