Anchorage in Concrete Construction

This publication is a comprehensive treatment of current concrete and masonry fastening technology, including inserts, post-installed anchors, and power-actuated fasteners. The section "Fastenings in Concrete" describes in detail these elements together with their behavior and load-bearing capacities in cracked and uncracked concrete, while also considering the effects of corrosion, fire, earthquakes, and shock loading. It concludes with an assessment of fastenings, illustrated by numerous examples. The "Fastenings in Masonry" section goes on to deal with several different types of masonry and describes the load bearing characteristics with an assessment of plastic fastenings and injection-molded anchors, including criteria for selecting the correct fastening.
