Dear Maria,

Thanks for your question.
Generally, the total length of wedge anchor is nominal length and thickness of connected parts like shim, bracket, washer etc.
In your present case you have to choose an anchor length which satisfies 116+25+nut height (12mm)+free length (25mm)=178mm length. So, M20x200 anchor will be fine for this.
Regarding anchor diameter, you have to design the anchor for given load and boundary conditions. Thickness of fixture tfix must be less than the one in ETA. but this generally is defined by base plate analysis.

Hope that's the answer to your question.
Let me know if there is any other question.

Best Regards
Muhammad Usman
