Anchor modification, specifically 'moving' the centre of a 10mm hole by 2mm

I worked (in the steel industry - from blast furnace, BOS, EAF (200t) and alloying ladles), but not in engineering (or not in fabrication engineering) - and I confess to not know what 'hot work' means.

Hot work to me was an electric arc furnace making stainless operating at 1800 deg C

Around oil refineries and other industries with flammable liquids and gases, a permit ("hot work") must be issued before any work can begin that will cause sparks or ignition risk. Welding, grinding, chipping, and so forth. Basically, the area and work practices must be evaluated.

In underground coal mining, where there can be inflammable gases like methane, the slightest spark can cause an explosion. Even coal dust can explode. In that industry, engineering practices had to be modified to suit. QED.
