(Test Method)Standard Test Methods for Strength of Anchors in Concrete Elements
Standard Test Methods for Strength of Anchors in Concrete Elements
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
These test methods are intended to provide reproducible data from which acceptance criteria, design data, and specifications can be developed for anchors intended to be installed in concrete.
SCOPE
1.1 These test methods address the tensile and shear strengths of post-installed and cast-in-place anchors in test members made of cracked or uncracked concrete. Loadings include quasi-static, seismic, fatigue and shock. Environmental exposures include freezing and thawing, moisture, decreased and elevated temperatures and corrosion. These test methods provide basic testing procedures for use with product-specific evaluation and acceptance standards and are intended to be performed in a testing laboratory. Product-specific evaluation and acceptance standards may add specific details and appropriate parameters as needed to accomplish the testing. Only those tests required by the specifying authority need to be performed.
1.2 These test methods are intended for use with post-installed and cast-in-place anchors designed for installation perpendicular to a plane surface of a test member.
1.3 This standard prescribes separate procedures for static, seismic, fatigue and shock testing. Nothing in this standard, however, shall preclude combined tests incorporating two or more of these types of loading (such as seismic, fatigue and shock tests in series).
1.4 Both inch-pound and SI units are provided in this standard. The testing may be performed in either system and reported in that system and the results converted to the other. However, anchor diameters, threads, and related testing equipment shall be in accordance with either inch-pound or SI provisions.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1. Scope
1.1These test methods cover procedures for determining the static, seismic, fatigue and shock, tensile and shear strengths of
post-installed and cast-in-place anchorage systems in structural members made of concrete or structural members made of
masonry. Only those tests required by the specifying authority need to be performed.
1.2Thesetestmethodsareintendedforusewithsuchanchoragedevicesdesignedtobeinstalledperpendiculartoaplanesurface
of the structural member.
1.3Whereas combined tension and shear as well as torsion tests are performed under special conditions, such tests are not
covered in the methods described herein.
1.4While individual procedures are given for static, seismic, fatigue and shock testing, nothing herein shall preclude the use of
combined testing conditions which incorporate two or more of these types of tests, (such as seismic, fatigue and shock tests in
series), since the same equipment is used for each of these tests.
1.1 These test methods address the tensile and shear strengths of post-installed and cast-in-place anchors in test members made
