1/12/20152006 IBCNote that as recently as the 2006 code, inspection was only for cast‐inanchors and then only if you were using increased allowable loads for design(i.e., using a FS of 4 instead of 8!). Per the code inspection was not requiredfor post‐installed anchors or for anchors designed using strength designprovisions, e.g., of ACI 318.www.hilti.com172009 IBCThis was corrected in the 2009 IBC through the addition of a new entry for“anchors installed in hardened concrete”. However, note that continuousinspection for cast in anchors was still required, even for strength design,whereas post‐installed anchors required only periodic.www.hilti.com189

1/12/20152012 IBCIn the 2012 IBC, both cast‐in and post‐installed anchors require periodicinspection, unless otherwise noted as per footnote b.www.hilti.com192012 IBCFootnote b.“b. Specific requirements for special inspection shall be included in theresearch report for the anchor issued by an approved source in accordancewith ACI 355.2 or other qualification procedures. Where specificrequirements are not provided, special inspection requirements shall bespecified by the registered design professional and shall be approved by thebuilding official prior to the commencement of the work.”Sources of additional inspection requirements for anchors: ACI 318 code (2011 and later) ACI 355.4 Evaluation reports (i.e., ESRs)www.hilti.com2010

This was prompted by the 2006 failure of adhesive anchors securing theceiling of the I‐90 connector tunnel in Boston. The primary concern was for anchors installed overhead and resistingsustained tension loads (e.g., gravity loads).National Transportation Safety Board HAR07‐02www.hilti.com3015

1/12/2015ACI 318-11The ACI code addresses this issue in several ways:1.ALL adhesive anchor systems must be qualified to resist sustainedtension loads. (D.2.3)2.Adhesive anchors to be installed overhead must be qualified foroverhead and horizontal installation. (D.3.4)3.Adhesive anchors subject to sustained tension are subjected to aspecial design check using reduced bond values. (D.4.1.2)4.Adhesive anchors installed overhead and subject to sustainedtension must be installed by certified adhesive anchor installers(D.9.2.2/D.9.2.3) and must be installed under continuous specialinspection. (D.9.2.4)www.hilti.com31ACI 355.4-11 Continuous special inspection for adhesive anchors may also be triggeredby the manner in which they are assessed under the ACI standard ACI355.4 Qualification of Post‐Installed Adhesive Anchors in Concrete (ACI355.4) and Commentary. In such cases, proof loading is also required.Threshold values for anchors subject toperiodic special inspection onlywww.hilti.comThreshold values for anchors subject tocontinuous special inspection and proof loading3216

There are no widely recognized standards for proof loading. Proof loading was implemented in the construction of the Big Dig ceilingsystem but the proof loads were quite low (125% of the allowable designload) and the response to anchor failures (as many as 16% of the anchorstested prior to the start of construction failed to resist the proof load)was inadequate. Best practice has been summarized in a document issued by the ConcreteAnchor Manufacturers Association.www.hilti.com3417

1/12/2015Proof loading components1.Proof loads should be established at a level that stresses the anchorwithin the elastic range and does not damage the anchor if it is notdefective. Typical practice in California (OSHPD) is to require proof loadsup to 50% of the permissible bond strength or 80% of anchor yield,whichever is less.2.A representative number of anchors should be tested, depending on thecriticality of the installation. OSHPD typically requires that 50% of allanchors be tested. Rates for non‐hospital work range from 10% to 25%.3.The consequences of any anchor failing the proof load test should beappropriately severe. Typical language requires that the sample rateincrease to 100% if any anchor fails the proof load.4.Proof loads should be applied with a confined test set up.5.Proof load specs should include permissible anchor deflection at proofload, if any.

1/12/2015Certified installers The requirement for certified installers comes from the ACI code. It is intended to improve the knowledge base of construction personnelinvolved in the installation of adhesive anchors. ACI, in conjunction with CRSI, has developed a certification program foradhesive anchor installers. This certification program is comprised of a written exam and a hands‐on“practice” exam. The exam was developed largely on the basis of Hilti’s experience withtraining of installers of adhesive anchor systems. There is a growing concern that there is/will be a deficit of certifiedinstallers.www.hilti.com37Certified installerswithout piston plugwith piston plugwww.hilti.com3819

1/12/2015For discussion1.Do you use adhesive anchors for safety‐related structural applications?2.Do you specify adhesive anchors with confidence?3.Do you agree with the requirement for certified installers?4.Would you require certification for all critical installations or just thosemandated by the code?5.How can the certification program be improved?www.hilti.com5126
