As to #6--I much prefer epoxy anchors as opposed to wedge--and they may be required anyway if an engineer is involved with the design.

Epoxy anchors?
Only it you can set the anchors and come back a day or so later before you load them.
Think Big Dig.

I like to use expansion anchors for overhead trapezes.
