Powder actuated anchors

[WJ2K2]

Hi
Im trying to find information on the allowable load for powder actuated anchors. Im on a project where the GC is using them to connect wood plates to structural steel and then anchoring wood trusses to the plates.
Thanks

One of the largest producers of powder actuated fasteners is Hilti. Check their website, their handbook of fastener loads should be on line. If not, repost with the size of the fasteners, powder loads being used and materials fastened to, and I try to find it in my copy of their handbook.
