- Synopsis
- Testing and behavior of post-installed anchors in sustained tensile load is to verify the mount of pull-out (displacement) and tensile resistance when the tensile load is applied to post-installed anchor for long-term. Such testing method is not a standardization yet in Japan. In this case, the test is organized according to European Technical Approval Guideline (ETAG) and investigated at Garman independent test laboratory (KIWA). This paper delineates the testing process and the behavior of sustained tensile load.
