Default can JB Weld be used to anchor bolts in concrete or brick?

I have two pavers (one brick and another concrete) that I recently
obtained for a special project. I had to drill four 1/4" holes near
each corner for placement of an anchor bolt. When I did this
yesterday, I didn't realize that there was something called anchoring
epoxy, so I drilled all the way through. Each bolt has a head so I
went all the way through and then used a stop nut on the non-headed
end; probably not the best way. Anyway, now the bolt of course
rotates when I try to secure the paver to wood. I was just thinking
of placing a small amount of JB Weld into each hole to stop the
rotation of the anchor and wondered if this could work? Don't see
the need now for spending twenty something on concrete epoxy for
something this small and it's pretty much done, just need to stop the
bolt rotation.

Thanks!



Why would you not use lag screws to secure the paver blocks to the wood?
