thanks for comments and feedback everyone
I have about 11 kips uplift in 3 story condo shearwall. Capacity of 7/8" hilti HY200 in 8" conc wall about 6kips
that's the reason I'm trying to have 2 hold downs on separate chords(16" apart).
that's what i thought
from risa (i put 10kips) there is a difference. Just wondering where it's coming from.

hi,
I'm trying to spread uplift (5kips) with 2 hold downs per side (this is just an example).
Is there a simple way to determine what would be an uplift if I use 2 hold downs?
thanks alex
