Next live webinar May 22nd, 2024 Register for free Fundamentals of Post-installed Reinforcing Bar Design Using Qualified Adhesive Anchor Systems (REB101) This course will inform the structural community on elements of reinforced concrete design using post-installed adhesive anchor systems. The ICC-ES "Acceptance Criteria for Post-Installed Adhesive Anchors in Concrete Elements", otherwise known as AC308, includes provisions to assess adhesive systems for use with the development and splice provisions of ACI 318-19 Chapter 25 (non-seismic) and Chapter 18 (seismic). This course is accredited through NCSEA Diamond Review for 1.0 hour of continuing education credit.

What is an EJ? An engineering judgment, or EJ as they are commonly known, is a drawing or group of drawings typically generated by a firestop manufacturer for a customer’s jobsite-specific application. They are recommended as a solution when a customer’s jobsite condition deviates from a tested firestop design/system.
