Abstract:
An anchor bolt fastener assembly with specialized connection capabilities and features for attaching building components to concrete slabs, walls, ceilings, and/or structural surfaces. Compression force can be established and maintained over time using a compression washer in combination with a specialized fastener stud that is designed to exploit the compression washer benefits. Methods of using exemplary embodiments include installing the anchor bolt fastener assembly relatively flush with the surface of the concrete slurry by direct insertion in the slurry using a specialized threaded anchor bolt float. Once the slurry hardens, the anchor bolt and anchor bolt float embedded in the concrete slurry cooperate with the specialized fastener stud to secure the building component to the concrete.

Claim (Index 1):
An anchor bolt fastener assembly for securing a structural building component to hardened concrete slurry, said anchor bolt fastener assembly comprising:\n a fastener stud having a shank and a through-bore with a first threaded end; a compression washer extending annularly about said shank of said fastener stud; an anchor bolt float configured to be imbedded in the concrete slurry, said anchor bolt float extending between a first end and a second end; said first end of said anchor bolt float including a threaded bore; and said anchor bolt float having an inner receiving chamber that is open to said second end of said anchor bolt float and is configured to receive at least part of said fastener stud; and an anchor bolt having a tail portion configured to be embedded in the concrete slurry and a threaded portion that is threadably received in said threaded bore of said anchor bolt float such that at least part of said threaded portion of said anchor bolt extends into said inner receiving chamber of said anchor bolt float where said threaded portion of said anchor bolt is threadably received in said first threaded end of said fastener stud to couple said fastener stud to said anchor bolt.
