Anchor Epoxy

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

is there a marked difference in the strength of anchor bolts in concrete drilling and epoxying vs after ..

casting? planning the construction of a steel building, but instead I pour the first slab and understand the placement of vertical support later for many reasons, I will not go into here. (Im referring to the specification of course the long-term strength 3000-5000 psi concrete fully cured, the slab unified footer with the following anchor pads 12 "deep. vs. long-term strength of high quality porcelain with 2-component epoxy bolt driven as deep as possible.)

Use secured by epoxy bolts, you can get a force of 31 thousand pounds on, or £ 16 000 to shear force, with a "bolt diameter installed 18.75" 1.25 deep in concrete, using Simpson Company at (acrylic) epoxy. Low Voltage and shear loads can be achieved with smaller diameter bolts, installed in shorter holes. These are comparable to charges supported by their SSTB foundation bolts embedded. Check out the latest catalog issued by the timber connector Simpson Strong-Tie Company. The above values ​​were found in their 2006 catalog, pp 29-32 and 33-34.
