I have a 1" anchor that needs to be epoxied into a 10" thick wall for a hold down at a shear wall. I tired PROFIS and no go. Is there any literature for deep embedment with epoxies?

I would def. be using cast-in-place anchor - maybe an all-thread embedded into the footing. Let the GC sort out how to get it in the correct spot. I have done it in the past and the GC was able to make it work.
