Pull-Out Strength of Resin Anchors in Non-cracked and Cracked Concrete and Masonry Substrates

Abstract

AbstractThe article presents the results of the work of the bonded anchors with selected resins commonly used in the European market for a variety of substrates - concrete walls made of ordinary non-cracked concrete, ordinary concrete cracked with initiated cracks of 0.00 and 0.30mm, and masonry with bricks of grade of not less than 20MPa compressive strength and full brick silicate class of not less than 20MPa. All tests performed for the purposes of this article were stored in ambient temperature of 23˚C before testing. The article does not include testing at temperature other than 23˚C, humidity, or moisture of the substrate
