  4. Bent plate anchor bracket should be attached to a concrete surface using one of the following anchor systems. Minimum embedment should be in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations, but not less than 4 1/2 in.

a. 1-in. threaded rod, grade 55 minimum, with washer and nut. Rod should be installed using an approved epoxy chemical anchor system with a minimum ultimate shear capacity of 21.2 kips: or
