PULL-OUT TEST FOR MECHANICAL ANCHORS

In this paper, test procedure and results obtained from experimental research for tension loaded post – installed mechanical anchors are presented. Before conducting the test procedure, additional material for expected type of failures is analyzed according to available literature and standards for calculation of concrete and steel structures, for further analysis of obtained results for the behavior of this type of anchors installed in nonreinforced concrete. Non – standard test of post – installed mechanical anchors loaded with tension force is conducted in non- reinforced concrete, where anchors are embedded according to rules and recommendations given from anchor manufacturer. Results from conducted tests are given in form of loaddisplacement diagram curves which defines the type of anchor failure. Obtained results are basis for further experimental researches.
