In the meantime anchors are on the market with significant higher bond resistance. Furthermore the advantage of bonded anchors, to be installed with varying embedment, needs a mocified design concept. This. Concept is given In this Technical Report. It covers embedment of min hg to 20 d. The minimum embedment depth is given in the ETA, it should be not less than 4d and 40mm, Restriction of the embedment depth may be given in the ETA. Algo the assessment and some tests in Part 5 need modifications, because it may be difficult to develop the characteristic bond resistance. Following the concept of Part § predominantly stee! failure and concrete cone failure may be observed for stialow and deep embedment, These results are of minor interest ‘The design method given in this Technical Report is based on Annex C with necessary modifications. itis val for enchors with European Technical Approval (ETA) according to the new approach with characteristic bond resistance (spy) and it is based on the assumption that the required tests for assessing the admissible service ‘conditions given in Part 1 and Part 5 with modifications according to this Technical Report have been carried out ‘The use of other design methods will equire reconsideration ofthe necessary tests, ‘The ETA’s for anchors give the characteristic values only of the different approved anchors. The design of the anchorages @.9. arrangement of anchors in a group of anchors, effect of edges of comers of the concrete member on the characteristic resistance shall be carried out according to the design methods described in Chapter 8 to 5 taking account of the corresponding characteristic values of the anchors. Chapter 7 gives additional proofs for ensuring the characteristic resistance of the concrete, ‘The design method is valid for all types of bonded anchors except undercut bonded anchors, torque controlled tonded anchors or post installed rebar connections. If values for the characteristic resistance, spacing, edge istances and partial safely factors differ between the design methods and the ETA, the value given in the ETA ‘governs. In the absence of national regulations the paral safety factors given in the folowing may be used, 4 Scope 1.1 Type of anchors, anchor groups and number of anchors. ‘The design method applies to the design of bonded anchors (according to Part 1 and §) in concrete using approved anchors which fulfil the requirements of this Guideline, The characteristic values of these anchors are given in the ralevant ETA, The design method is valid for single anchors and anchor groups. in case of an anchor group the loads are applied to the individual anchors of the group by means of a ngid future. In an anchor group only anchors of the ‘same type, size and lenath should be used. ‘The design method covers single anchors and anchor groups according to Figure 1.1 and 1.2. Other anchor arrangements @.9. in a tlangular or circular patter are also allowed; however, the provisions of this design method should be applied with engineering judgement, In General this design method is vaid only ifthe diameter dof the clearance hole in the fixture is not larger than the value according to Table 4.1 Exceptions: + For fastenings loaded in tension only a larger diameter ofthe clearance hole is acceptable if @ correspondent washer is used, ‘+ For fastenings loaded in shear or combined tension and shear if the gap between the hole and the fixture is filed with morter of sufcient compression strength or eliminated by other suitable means. anchor plate anchors - oe Gee e\ @ ° e © e ee e e e @ e ee e®ee a » 3) o 2 9 Figure 1.1 Anchorages covered by the design methods + allloading directions, if anchors are situsted far from edges (¢ 2 max (10 hw: 60.4) + tension loading only, it anchors are situated close to edges (c < max (10 har; 604 J) anchor plate % ances Im x, ¢2 < max GO; 80.4)) a 5 4 a Figure 1.2 Anchorages covered by the design methods ~ shear loading, if anchors are situated close to an edge (¢ < max (10h, 1.2 Concrete member ea) The concrete member should be of normal weight concrete of at least strength class C 20/25 and at most strength class C 50/60 accorcing to EN 206 and should be subjected only to predominantly static loads. The ‘concrete may be cracked or non-cracked, In general for simplification itis assumed thal the concrete is cracked, otherwise it as to be shown that the concrete Is non-cracked (see 4.1) 1.3. Type and direction of load ‘The design methods apply to anchors subjected to static or quasi-static loadings and not to anchors subjected to impact or seismic loadings. 1.4 Safety class Anchorages carried out in accordance with these design methods are considered to belong to anchorages, the failure of which would cause risk to human life andlor considerable economic consequences, 2 Terminology and Symbols ‘The notations and symbols frequently used in the design methods are given below.

If no detailed analysis is conducted, then ca = 3 Nimm® should DS ‘assumed. cording to EC 2 The stresses o, and on are calculated assuming that the concrete is non-cracked (slate 1). For plane concrete members which transmit loads in two directions (e.g. slabs, walls) Equation (4.1) should be fulfilled for both directions, 4.2 Loads acting on anchors: Inthe static analysis the loads and moments are given which are acting on the fixture. To design the anchorage the loads acting on each anchor are calculated, taking into account partial safety factors for actions according to 31 in the ullimate limit state and according to 3.3 inthe serviceability limit state, With single anchors normally the loads acting on the anchor are equal to the loads acting on the fixture, With anchor groups the loads, bending and torsion moments acting on the fixture are distrituted to tension and shear forces acting on the incividual anchors of the group. This distribution shail be calculated according to the theory of eiasticly, 4.24. Tension loads In general, the tension loads acting on each anchor due to loads and bending moments acting on the fixture shoul be calculated according to the theory of elasticity using the following assumptions: a} The anchor plate does not deform under the design actions. To ensure the valiity of this assumption the anchor plate has to be sufficiently sf. b)_ The stiness of all anchors is equal and corresponds to the modulus of elasticity ofthe steel, The modulus of elasticity of concrete is given in EC 2. As a simplification it may be taken as E_ = 30 000 Nm? ©) In the zone of compression under the fixture the anchors do not contribute to the transmission of normal forces (see Figure 4, tb. If in special cases the anchor plate is not sufficiently sif, then the flexibility of the anchor plate should be taken into account when calculating loads acting on the anchors. In the case of anchor groups with different levels of tension forces N. acting on the individual anchors of a group the eccentrcty ey of the tension force N§ of the group may be calculated (see Figure 4.1), 1o enable a more accurate assessment of the anchor group resistance. if the tensioned anchors do not form a rectangular pattem, for reasons of simplicity the group of tensioned anchors may be resolved into a group rectangular in shape (that means the cenire of graviy of the tensioned ‘anchors may be assumed in the centre of the axis in Figure 4. 1c) 7 ines | 4 a} eccentricity in one direction, all anchors are loaded by a tension force neutral axis NS p | Not ‘7 va _| compressed XY {> f a ie { t Ns= DN | iH [ose] 0.55, s | Ng, = Nt ) eccentricity in one direction, only a partof the anchors of the group are loaded by a tension force peutral axis Ng oy 5 st ©) eccentricity in two directions, only 2 part the anchors ofthe group are loaded by a tensioN force @ tensioned anchors © contre of gravity of tensioned anchors X point of rasuiting tensile force Cf tensioned anchors Figure 4.1 Example of anchorages subjected to an eccentric tensile load N# 4.2.2 Shear loads 4.2.2.4 Distribution of shear loads The distribution of shear loads depends on the mode of fallure: a) Steel fallure and concrete pry-out failure Itis assumed that all anchors of a group take up shear load if the diameter dy of clearance hole in the fixture is not larger than the value given in Table 4.1 (see Figure 4,2 and 4.6), b) Concrete edge failure Only the most unfavourable anchors take up shear loads if the shear acts perpencicular towards the edge {see Figure 4.3 and 4.7). All anchors take up shear loads acting parallel to the edge. Slotted holes in direction of the shear load prevent anchors to take up shear loads. This can be favourable in case of fastenings close to an edge (see Figure 4.4). ifthe diameter 0; of clearance hole jn the fixture is larger than given in Table 4.1 the design method is only valid if the gap between the bolt and the fxture is filed with mortar of sufficient compression strength or eliminated by other suitable means, Table 4.1 Diameter of clearance hole in the fixture [external diameter 8 0F on’ (mm) |e |s fo _|r2_|s4 [16 [18 [20 |22 jas [a7 [30 Glameter dof clearance hole in the fixture (mm —|7_|s_|r2_|ra fre fre 20 f22 [24 [26 |s0 [33 Tol bears apart the ture yr aunave bears sgainat he tre Vs rt { 7 tf d ve ; | | 1 | cece 4 Tat a) b) oe) Figure 4.2 Examples of load distribution, when all anchors take up shear loads oo wo a) > 9 Figure 4.3 amples of load distribution, when only the most unfavourable anchors take up shear loads Figure 44 &¥€mples of load distibution for @ fastening with slotted holes in the case of anchor groups with diferent levels of shear forces Vz acting on the individual anchors ofthe group the eccenticiy & of the shear force Vf of the group may be calculated (see Figure 4.5), to enable @ more accurate assessMSnt of the anchor group resistance, Figure 4.5 E*&mple for a fastening subjected to an eccentric shear load 4.2.2.2 Determ!"4tion of shear loads The determinatiO" of shear loads to the fasteners in a group resulting from shear forces end torsion moments 2cting on the fixt¥* is calculated according to the theory of elasticity assuming equal stifiness forall fasteners of 2 group.

This assumption is always on the safe side, Full restraint (ayq = 2.0) may be assumed only if the fixture cannot rotate (see Figure 4.9b) and the hole Clearance in the fiure is smaller than the values given in Table 4.1 or the anchor is clamped to the fixture by nut ‘and washer (see Figure 4.8).

Therefore ‘Annex C is a pre-condition for assessing and judging of anchors. The use of other design methods will require reconsideration of the necessary tests. ‘The ETA’s for anchors give the characteristic values only of the different approved anchors. The design of the ‘anchorages (e.g. arrangement of anchors in a group of anchors, effect of edges or comers of the concrete ‘member on the characteristic resistance) shall be carried out according to the design methods described in ‘Chapter 3 to § taking account of the corresponding characteristic values of the anchors, Chapter 7 gives additional proofs for ensuring the characteristic resistence of the conerete member which are valid for all anchor systems. ‘The design methods are valid forall anchor types. However, the equations given in the following are valid for ‘anchors according to current experience only (see Annex B). If values for the characteristic resistance, spacings, edge distances differ between the design methods and the ETA, the value given in the ETA governs. In the absence of national regulations the partial safety factors given inthe following may be used. 1 Scope 11 Type of anchors, anchor groups and number of anchors ‘The design methods apply to the design of anchorages in concrete using approved anchors which fulfil the requirements ofthis Guideline. The characteristic values of these anchors are given in the relevant ETA, The design methods are valid for single anchors and anchor groups. In case of an anchor group the loads are ‘applied to the individual anchors of the group by means of a ngid fixture. In an anchor group only anchors of the same typa, size and length shall be used. The design methods cover single anchors and anchor groups according to Figure 1.1 and 1.2. Other anchor arrangements e.g. in a triangular or circular pattern are also allowed; however, the provisions of this design method should be applied with engineering judgement, In general this design method is vaid only ifthe diameter dy ofthe clearance hole in the fixture is not larger than the value according to Table 4.1 Exceptions: ‘+ For fastenings loaded in tension only a larger diameter of the clearance hole is acceptable If a corresponding washer is used, ‘+ For fastenings loaded in shear or combined tension and shear if the gap between the hole and the fixture is filled with mortar of sufficient compression strength or eliminated by other suitable means. anchor plate anne ® ee eee ° e @ e ee e e e e @ eee a » 9 * 9 4 Figure 1.1 Anchorages covered by the design methods = allloading directions, f anchors are situated far from edges (¢ 2 max (10 her, 60 ¢)) = tension loading only, if anchors are situated close to edges (c < max (10 ha, 60 d)} anchor plate > o anchors a » Q a Figure 1.2.

The concrete may be cracked or non-cracked. in general for simplification itis assumed that the concrete is cracked, otherwise it shall ‘be shown that the concrete is non-cracked (see 4.1). 1.3. Type and direction of load The design methods apply to anchors subjected to static or quasi-static loadings and nat to anchors subjected to impact or seismic loadings or loaded in compression. 14 Classification of the consequence of failure ‘Anchorages carried out in accordance with these design methods are considered to belong to anchorages, the faiure of which would comprise the stabllty of works, cause risk to human life andlor lead to considerable ‘economic consequences. 2 Terminology and Symbols ‘The notations and symbols frequently used in the design methods are given below.

For the characteristic displacements see 6. The admissible ‘isplacement depends on the application in question and should be evaluated by the designer. In this check the partiat safety factors on actions and on resistances may be assumed to be equal to 1.0. 4 Static analysis 44 Non-cracked and cracked concrete lf the condition in Equation (4.1) is not fulfilled or not checked, then cracked concrete shall be assumed. Non-cracked concrete may be assumed in special cases if in each case it is proved that under service Conditions the anchor with its entire anchorage depth Is located in non-cracked concrete, In the absence of other uidance the following provisions may be taken. For anchorages subjected to a resultant load Fs, < 60 kN non-cracked concrete may be assumed if Equation (4.1) is observed: ator $0 any a stresses in the concrete induced by external loads, including enchors loads stresses in the concrete due to restraint of intrinsic Imposed deformations (e.g. shrinkage of concrete) or extrinsic imposed deformations (e.g. due to displacement of support or temperature variations). If no detailed analysis is conducted, then oq=3.Nimm? should be ‘assumed, according fo EC 2 [1] The stresses 0, and op are calculated assuming that the concrete is non-cracked (state I). For ptane concrete members which transmit loads in two directions (e.g. slabs, walls) Equation (4.1) shall be futiled for both directions, 4.2 Loads acting on anchors In the static analysis the loads and moments are given which are acting on the fixture, To design the anchorage: the loads acting on each anchor shall be calculated, taking into account partial safety factors for actions according to 3.1 in the ultimate limit state and according to 3.3 in the serviceabilty iit state With single anchors normally the loads acting on the anchor are equal to the loads acting on the fture. With anchor groups the loads, bending and torsion moments acting on the fixture are distributed to tension and shear forces acting on the individual anchors of the group. This distribution shall be calculated according to the theory of elasticity. 424 Tension loads 1m general, the tension loads acting on each anchor due to loads and bending moments acting on the fixture shall be calculated according to the theory of elasticity using the following assumptions: a) b) ° The anchor plate does not deform under the design actions, To ensure the validity of this assumption the anchor plata shall be sufficiently st. The stiffness of all anchors is equal and corresponds to the modulus of elasticity ofthe steel. The modulus of elasticity of concrete is given in [1]. As a simplification it may be taken as E = 30000 Nim’. {n the zone of compression under the fixture the anchors do not contribute to the transmission of normat forces (se0 Figure 4. 1b), If in special cases the anchor plate is not sulficiently sti, then the flexibility of the anchor plate shall be taken, into account when calculating loads acting on the anchors Inthe cease of anchor groups with diferent levets of tension forces Ny acting on the individual anchors of a group the eccentricity ey of the tension force NE of the group may be calculated (see Figure 4.1), io enable a more accurate assessment of the anchor group resistance, ) eccentricity in one direction, all anchors are loaded by a tension force ‘compressed ? ens neutral axis sf Net TT pas : a en Medm, sei 85y a Ng, = NS b) eccentricity in one direction, only a part of the anchors of the group are loaded by a tension force 10 route nas“ —-—| 7 Ne 5 3 ©) eccentricity in two directions, only a part of the anchors of the group are loaded by a tension force © tensioned anchors ® contre of gravity of tensioned anchors, X Point of resuiting tensile force of tensioned anchors Figuro 4.1 Example of anchorages subjected to an eccentric tensile load N= If the tensioned anchors do not form a rectangular pattern, for reasons of simplicity the group of tensioned anchois may be resolved into @ group rectangular in shape (that means the centre of gravily of the tensioned anchors may be assumed inthe contre of the axis in Figure 4.) 4.2.2 Shear loads 4.2.24 Distribution of loads The distribution of shear loads depends on the mode of failure: a) Steel fature and concrete pry-out fallure itis assumed that all anchors of a group take up shear loads if the diameter dj ofthe clearance hole in the fixture is not larger than the value given in Table 4.1 (see Figures 4.2 and 4.6) b} Concrete edge failure Only the most unfavourable anchors take up shear loads if the shear acts perpendicular towards the edge (see Figures 4.3 and 4.7).
