Design Basis and Assumptions  
The design of circular pattern anchor bolt group uses the Method 2 Sawcut with hef’ and Neutral Axis at Center as stated in the following references
1. ASCE Anchorage Design for Petrochemical Facilities - 2013    Example 2 Step 5(c) on Page 145
2. ASCE 2010 Structural Congress - Concrete Breakout Strength in Tension for Vertical Vessel Anchorage in Octagon Pedestals
The design of circular pattern anchor bolt group is simplified as design of a single anchor bolt with 3 side free edges sawcut at midway between adjacent anchors. The simplified design method uses the following assumptions
1. The moment is resisted only by the anchor bolt group and it does not take into account the contribution of concrete compression
    force against base plate in the moment equilibrium
2. The neutral axis is not shifted and is located at center of vessel
3. It does not consider strain compatibility between the concrete and steel elements which comprise the anchorage.
4. In the assumed 3 side free edges sawcut model, when anchor is located less than 1.5hef from three or more edges, the reduced
    hef' is used to calculate concrete projected failure area ANC
The utilization ratio of simplified method used in this calculation is conservative compared to the accurate but more complex approach. The detail comparison and analysis of this simplified method is addressed in reference 2 above.
