Abstract

This paper investigates the potential influence of different aggregates in the concrete mix design on the concrete cone resistance of different types of anchors as well as the anchor stiffness. In fact, bonded anchors with three different adhesives and mechanical anchors and concrete screws of two types were installed in five different concrete mixes and tested in a standard tensile configuration using pull-out tests with wide support resulting in concrete cone failure. A rigorous analysis of both the initial and secant stiffness values of the different anchor types is carried out in a comparative manner. The results of the experimental program show that the anchor stiffnesses are not influenced by the different aggregates in the concrete mixes, but rather by the type of anchor. Finally, this manuscript provides a narrow range of both initial and secant stiffness values with respect to anchor type only.
