Limitations to checks of anchors
Eurocode
Anchor type: Straight
Message:
The following checks of anchors loaded in tension are not provided and should be checked using the information in the relevant European Technical Product Specification:
- Pull-out failure of fastener (for post-installed mechanical anchors) – EN 1992-4, Cl. 7.2.1.5,
- Combined pull-out and concrete failure (for post-installed bonded anchors) – EN 1992-4, Cl. 7.2.1.6,
- Concrete splitting failure – EN 1992-4, Cl. 7.2.1.7.
Concrete blow-out failure is provided only for anchors with washer plates.
Anchor type: Washer plate
Message:
Concrete splitting failure should be determined by EN 1992-4, Cl. 7.2.1.7. The information from relevant European Technical Product Specification is missing.
AISC (LRFD)
Anchor type: Straight
Message:
The following checks of anchors loaded in tension are not provided and should be checked using the information in the relevant Technical Product Specification (based on the 5 % fractile of tests performed and evaluated according to ACI 355.2):
- Pull-out failure of fastener (for post-installed mechanical anchors) – ACI 318-19: 17.6.3,
- Bond strength of adhesive anchor (for post-installed bonded anchors) – ACI 318-19: 17.6.5,
- Concrete splitting failure during installation should be evaluated by ACI 355.2 requirements.
Concrete blow-out failure is provided only for anchors with washer plates.

CSA
Anchor type: Straight
Message:
The following checks of anchors loaded in tension are not provided and should be checked using the information in the relevant Technical Product Specification (based on the 5 percent fractile of tests):
- Pull-out failure of fastener (for post-installed mechanical anchors) – CSA A23.3-14: D.6.3,
- Bond strength of adhesive anchor (for post-installed bonded anchors) – CSA A23.3-14: D.6.5.
Concrete blow-out failure is provided only for anchors with washer plates. Anchors shall satisfy the required edge distances, spacings, and thicknesses to preclude splitting failure as required by CSA A23.3-14: D.9.
