Hilti Profis seems to be updated with lots of features I don't need, and yet I'm unable to check the capacity of a single anchor. I just need to check simple anchors connected to a baseplates. No advanced baseplate analysis, no profile. Just a simple check. If there a way to do this with the new software? Or am I able to use the old software?
Hi Damien,
Thank you for your question. PROFIS Engineering does have a lot of new and advanced features however it does still retain all the functionalities in the previous PROFIS Anchor version - which we have implemented UI and layout changes to be more user friendly.
If you are just requiring a simple check/calculation of the anchors, it is definitely still possible to do so. In the anchor tab (shown in attachment titled "single anchor example") for example, you can simply change to the single anchor layout to check the single anchor performance.
Alternatively if you are checking simple connections and do not need the profile or baseplate checks, please just keep the settings as rigid (shown in attachment titled "Rigid setting"). This will allow the software to assume the connection is sufficiently rigid according to alternate checks and only run the anchor failure mode calculations according to AS5216.
If you have any further questions, please let us know
kind regards,
