2012 02 17 nbsp 0183 32 To allow for larger tolerances in anchor bolt placement the code permits the plate washer to be slotted when a standard cut washer is used New slotted plate washers that are 4 189 inch wide can be used for 2x6 framing that is sheathed on both sides or for anchor bolts centered in 2x6 framing that is sheathed on just one side Continuous
In addition to embedded depth the minimum diameter required for anchor bolts is 1 2 inch 12 7 mm per the International Building Code IBC As with maximum spacing this is a minimum requirement Increasing the diameter to 5 8 inches is usually a good way to allow for some margin of error particularly in seismic regions
