Anchorage to Concrete

Designers and contractors will find the knowledge contained in Anchorage to Concrete invaluable for choosing the proper anchors for specific applications. A compilation of 15 symposium papers, this ACI publication will explore the various problems, and give insight into the latest solutions in this often neglected aspect of concrete construction.

Presenting the various anchorage system alternatives, this state-of-the-art publication includes such topics as: anchor bolts in reinforced concrete foundations, dowels for anchoring new concrete facing to existing lock walls, strength and behavior of single cast-in-place anchor bolts subject to tension, headed studs, theoretical considerations on loadbearing behavior of expansion anchors, and transverse load capacity of multi-dowel anchorages in concrete.
