Standard of Method of Test for Evaluation of Adhesive Anchors in Concrete Under Sustained Loading Conditions
Also Known As:
The AASHTO TP 84-11 (2017) standard outlines the procedure for evaluating the performance of adhesive anchor systems in concrete structures under sustained tensile loads. These adhesive anchor systems are commonly used in transportation structures such as bridges, tunnels, and concrete repair projects.
The standard specifically applies to adhesive anchor systems that use steel anchors in predrilled holes in concrete. It aims to determine the time to failure for these anchors under various levels of sustained loading. The test method incorporates elements from ASTM E 488 for the static load test and ASTM E 1512 and ICC-ES AC308 for the sustained load (creep) test.
It is important to note that this standard solely addresses the effect of sustained loads on adhesive anchors. The load capacity of adhesive anchors is influenced by multiple factors, and therefore, a comprehensive evaluation requires a battery of tests. ICC-ES AC308 provides a reference for these factors and related test methods that are relevant to adhesive anchors.
