Anchorage in Concrete Construction

A comprehensive treatment of current fastening technology using inserts (anchor channels, headed stud), anchors (metal expansion anchor, undercut anchor, bonded anchor, concrete screw and plastic anchor) as well as power actuated fasteners in concrete. It describes in detail the fastening elements as well as their effects and load-bearing capacities in cracked and non-cracked concrete. It further focuses on corrosion behaviour, fire resistance and characteristics with earthquakes and shocks. It finishes off with the design of fastenings according to the European Technical Approval Guideline (ETAG 001), the Final Draft of the CEN Technical Specification 'Design of fastenings for use in concrete' and the American Standards ACI 318-05, Appendix D and ACI 349-01, Appendix B.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.

SD Rolf Eligehausen, Prof. Dr.-Ing. studied structural engineering at the Technical University Brunswick and gained his doctorate from the University of Stuttgart. Following two years of research at the University of California Berkeley, he became professor for fastenings technology at Otto Graf Institute, University of Stuttgart in 1984.
He is a member of numerous national and international expert commissions in the fields of steel-reinforced concrete and fastening technologies and the author of a large number of essays on these topics.
Rainer Mallée, Dr.-Ing. studied structural engineering at the Technical University Brunswick and gained his doctorate from the University of Stuttgart.
Between 1980 and 1987 he was head of Professor Rehm's engineering company in Munich, before becoming head of development in fastening elements at fischer in Waldachtal. Since 1996 he has been head of research at the fischer group of companies.
John F. Silva, MS, SE gained his Master of Civil Engineering at the University of California at Berkeley and is a Structural Engineer. He worked for ca. 10 years in San Francisco at two renowned engineering firms concentrating on inter alia fastenings during earthquakes. He worked in the development centre at HILTI for four years and currently works in their San Francisco offices.

Within the international field of construction, both German companies and experts play an important role in fastening technology. The authors represent both groups, first two have already published a successful German edition. This English-language edition has been revised and third author has joined the team.
