Anchor Bolt Shear Design

[Vesselgeek]

Does compress check anchor bolts for wind or seismic shear? There is no input for anchor bolt allowable shear stress and I don't see the calculation in the reports.

Yes, COMPRESS checks this condition.

There actually IS an input on ths saddle design dialog for the anchor bolt allowable shear stress. And the bolt shear stress calculation is shown under the bold caption "Shear stress in anchor bolting"
