Abstract:
A literature review of studies on the behavior of
post-installed concrete anchors is presented. The
survey covers several types of anchors that are
subjected to tension loads, shear loads, and to combined
shear and tension loads. Brief summaries of the studies
or investigations and their findings are presented.
More detailed information may be found in the cited
references. There are quite a number of studies on the
behavior of these anchors subjected to shear or tension
loads, but only a few studies on the behavior of anchors
subjected to combined shear and tension loads,
especially adhesive anchors. An experimental program to
study the behavior of anchors subjected to combined
shear and tension loads needs to be conducted to add to
the existing database.
