Group effect in axially loaded chemical anchors embedded in low strength concrete

Arslan, Tolga

The use of chemical anchors for the connection of existing structural elements with the new elements during strengthening of existing structures is quite a preferred method. Since in our country, chemical anchors are being widely used for repair and strengthening works, there should be a standard of design and application on this topic. Up to now, research done on the topic of chemical anchors, are mostly carried out on concrete blocks of compressive strength 20 MPa and higher. Since parameters such as distance from the edges, embedment depth and group effect were mostly ignored, the re ...Daha fazlası
