I am looking at selecting concrete anchors for a project with seismic requirements, and I am curious about the various approvals that are out there.
I have seen various types of approvals: ACI 355.2; ACI 318; ICC-ESR; UL 203/203A; FM approved, UL listed As far as I can tell - the ACI and ICC-ESR approvals meet NFPA requirements, but does anyone know about the others? Some product websites claim that they can be used in seismic areas since they are tested in accordance with UL 203. Many are FM approved, but the FM approval just says "approved for supporting pipe hangers" and not much else. Does anyone know if those listings actually meet the code intent? Thanks!
