Das Buch stellt den aktuellen Stand der kompletten Befestigungstechnik für Beton und Mauerwerk mit Einlegeteilen (Ankerschienen, Kopfbolzen), Dübeln (Metallspreizdübel, Hinterschnittdübel, Verbunddübel, Betonschrauben, Kunststoffdübel) und Setzbolzen umfassend dar. Die Befestigungselemente und ihre Wirkungsmechanismen werden ausführlich beschrieben und das Tragverhalten im ungerissenen und gerissenen Beton untersucht. Weiterhin werden das Korrosionsverhalten, das Verhalten bei Brandbeanspruchung sowie bei Erdbeben- und Schockbeanspruchung behandelt. Von besonderer internationaler Aktualität ist die Bemessung gemäß der europäischen und amerikanischen Normung. Praxisorientierte Kriterien zur Auswahl von Befestigungsmitteln und Bemessungsbeispiele runden das Werk zu einem einzigartigen Handbuch ab. 1 Introduction. 1.1 A historical review. 1.2 Requirements for fastenings. 1.3 Nature and direction of actions. 2 Fastening systems. 2.1 General. 2.2 Cast in place systems. 2.3 Drilled in systems. 2.4 Direct installation. 3 Principles. 3.1 General. 3.2 Behaviour of concrete in tension. 3.3 Failure mechanisms of fastenings. 3.4 Cracked concrete. 3.5 Why anchors may use the tensile strength of concrete. 3.6 Prestressing of anchors. 3.7 Loads on anchors. 4 Behaviour of headed studs, undercut anchors and metal expansion anchors in non cracked and cracked concrete. 4.1 Non cracked concrete. 4.2 Cracked concrete. 5 Behaviour of cast in anchor channels in non cracked and cracked concrete. 5.1 Non cracked concrete. 5.2 Cracked concrete. 6 Behaviour of bonded anchors in non cracked and cracked concrete. 6.1 Non cracked concrete. 6.2 Cracked concrete. 6.3 Bonded undercut anchors and bonded expansion anchors. 7 Behaviour of plastic anchors in non cracked and cracked concrete. 7.1 Non cracked concrete. 7.2 Cracked concrete. 8 Behaviour of power actuated fasteners in non cracked and cracked concrete. 8.1 Non cracked concrete. 8.2 Cracked concrete. 9 Behaviour of screw anchors in non cracked and cracked concrete. 9.1 Installation. 9.2 Non cracked concrete. 9.3 Cracked concrete. 10 Behaviour of anchors under seismic loading. 10.1 Anchor applications. 10.2 Seismic actions. 10.3 Assumptions regarding the condition of the concrete. 10.4 Behaviour of anchors under seismic conditions. 11 Behaviour of anchors in fire. 12 Corrosion of anchors. 13 Influence of fastenings on the capacity of components in which they are installed. 14 Design of fastenings. 14.1 General. 14.2 Verifying the suitability of an anchor system. 14.3 Design of fastenings with post installed metal expansion, undercut and bonded expansion anchors according to the EOTA Guideline. 14.4 Design of fastenings according to the CEN Technical Specification. 14.5 Design of fastenings with cast in and post installed metal anchors according to ACI 318 05 Appendix D.
