Dear Customer,
Thank you for your enquiry.
In the PROFIS Engineering calculation, the mass newly casted concrete is not included by defining the geometry of the model (As you can see height of the new member is not defined). Dead load the new concrete member shall be accounted in the input load.
Load factor as defined by HK local code of practice is recommended to adopt for the ULS calculation of the Post-installed rebar.
Regards,
