Can you be more specific? I am only familiar with concrete slab
foundations and the embedded anchor bolts have only a bend to form an
"L" shape and that is in the concrete.

If you are wondering if a hex or square head is more resistant to turn
when submerged in concrete, I would say neither.

Square would be better than hex, but both are eclipsed by a L-shaped
anchor bolt.

But if ordinary bolt heads were good enough, the L-shaped anchors
would not exist.
