Found this on the LABC website and thought it would be relevant here.

If you where placing the roof anchor inside the roof underneath the rafter then this would be axiall loading!
Once the engineer has e-mailed me the information you will need, i'll link it here.
Hope this resolves issue, contact him if you want he's a nice guy, and will explain axiall loading to you if you really want to know, as i think you where a bit confused as to what it was/is.
SRE he wouldn't be on here if he had done 7 years at college to become a structural engineer would he?
I suggest you check out SIG fixings, you can get a 4mm shafted hex head zinc coated wood screw.
cheers
I'll take a load of pictures for you to show you how to fix an anchor with a 4mm bolt to a rafter not a problem.
Schletter mounting system
One i'm starting on the 5th September has 38mm rafters.
