36、rete Institute Copyrighted Materialwww.concrete.orgCHAPTER 1INTRODUCTION1.1IntroductionThis standard prescribes testing and evaluation requirementsfor post-installed adhesive anchor systems intended for usein concrete under the provisions of ACI 318. Criteria areseparately prescribed to determine th
37、e suitability of adhesiveanchors used in uncracked concrete only, or in both crackedand uncracked concrete. Criteria are prescribed to determinethe design parameters and performance category for adhesiveanchors. Included are assessments of the adhesive anchorsystem for bond strength, reliability, se
38、rvice conditions, andquality control. Special inspection (13.3) is required duringanchor installation as noted in 10.22. Table 1.1 provides anoverview of the scope.R1.1 This standard prescribes the testing programsrequired to qualify post-installed adhesive anchor systemsfor design in accordance wit
39、h ACI 318, Appendix D.Appendix D requires that anchors be tested either for useexclusively in uncracked concrete or for use in cracked anduncracked concrete conditions, whereby it is understood thatthe presence of cracking may occur at any time over theservice life of the anchors. Test and assessmen
40、t criteria areprovided for various conditions, including loads (seismicand sustained), environmental with regard to humidity andtemperature, and determination if anchors are acceptablefor use in cracked or uncracked concrete. Refer to Cook andKonz (2001) for a review of factors that influence adhesi
41、veanchor behavior. Refer to Fuchs et al. (1995) for backgroundon the concrete breakout design model and to Eligehausen etal. (2006) and Zamora et al. (2003) for a discussion of bondmodels for adhesive and grouted anchors. For a discussionof issues associated with the qualification and design ofsyste
42、ms for post-installed reinforcing bars, refer to Spieth etal. (2001).1.2ScopeThis standard applies only to post-installed adhesiveanchors as defined herein.R1.2 Adhesive anchors resist tension loads with a combi-nation of adhesion and mechanical bond (micro-interlock).Different anchor designs and ad
43、hesive types may exhibit arange of performance characteristics. In particular, thesensitivity of adhesive anchors to variations in installationand service-condition parameters (such as hole cleaning,installation orientation, and cracked concrete characteristics)may vary widely from each system. ACI
44、318 addresses thissituation by matching capacity reduction factors to anchorperformance categories that are, in turn, establishedthrough a series of reliability tests.1.2.1 This standard applies to anchors with a diameter daof 1/4 in. or larger. The drilled hole shall be approximatelycylindrical wit
45、h a diameter do 1.5da. This standard alsoapplies to anchors with an anchor embedment depth hefnotless than four diameters (4da), or 1-5/8 in., and an embedmentdepth not exceeding 20da.R1.2.1 The minimum diameter of 1/4 in. is based onpractical considerations regarding the limit of structuralanchor a
46、pplications. The upper limit on the ratio of holediameter to anchor element diameter provides a demarcationbetween conditions where a single bond strength can be usedto evaluate anchor strength and conditions where bondstrengths at both the anchor interface and concrete interfacemust be determined t
47、o evaluate anchor strength. In addition,the value of 1.5dais based on consideration of typical practicewhereby most organic adhesives are used with thin bondlines to limit both adhesive shrinkage and creep of theanchor when under load. The design method deemed tosatisfy the anchor design requirement
48、s of ACI 318, Appendix D,is based on an analysis of an anchor database with amaximum diameter of 2 in. While ACI 355.4 gives nolimitations on maximum anchor diameter, for anchorsbeyond this dimension, the testing authority should decide ifthe tests described in this standard are applicable or ifalte
49、rnative tests and analyses are more appropriate. It mayalso be desirable to reconsider those tests where only small,medium, and large diameters are tested when the upperdiameter is much larger than 1-1/2 in.A limitation on the minimum embedment length of adhesiveanchors is necessary to ensure conformance with the designmethod deemed to satisfy the anchor design requirements ofACI 318, Appendix D.1.2.2 The minimum member thickness shall not be lessthan the value given by E
