The optimal mounting distance for the deck anchor is between

INSTALLING AN ANCHOR IN A CONCRETE DECK
The proper installation of the anchor depends on the construction and condition of the deck. If the deck
meets the thickness and re-enforcing requirements shown in Appendix A then the anchor can be installed
according to the instructions outlined in Appendix A.
If the existing deck does not meet the requirements outlined in Appendix A then the anchor can be
installed per the instructions in Appendix B or C, or you can consult with an engineering professional.
The deck anchor reaction loads can be found in the Specification Section of this manual.
Properly bond the anchor socket using the attached bonding screw per local codes
