NEW: Beton-Kalender 2020
In December 2019, the Beton-Kalender 2020 was published by Ernst & Sohn. The yearbook contains a comprehensive essay on the design of fastenings according to the new European standard EN 1992-4.
Design of fastenings based on EN 1992-4
In addition to the design according to ETAG 001, Annex C, it is now possible to carry out design of mechanical and chemical fasteners based on the European standard EN 1992-4 in DesignFiX.
Anchor theory versus reinforced concrete theory
High-performance injection mortars are suitable for anchoring threaded rods and internally threaded sleeves as well as reinforcing bars.
NEW: Post-installed rebar design
Powerful injection systems are ideal for post-installed rebar connections. The injection mortar is injected into the thoroughly cleaned bore hole and then the reinforcing bar is inserted.
Anchor Design Software – Curious Design Results #4
If the number of tensioned anchors changes within an anchor group close to an edge due to variable loads, then there may be steps in the characteristic resistance for ‘Concrete cone failure’.
