Anchor Fastening Technical GuideFastening Technology 2.02.1 Base Materials2.1.1 Base Materialsfor FasteningThe design of modern buildings requires fastenings to bemade in a variety of base materials. To meet this challenge,fastener manufacturers have developed many productsspecifically targeting certain types of base materials. Theproperties of the base material play a decisive role in thesuitability and performance of a fastener. The designer mustcarefully match the type of fastener with the base material toobtain the desired results. There is hardly a base material inwhich a fastening cannot be made with a Hilti product.2.1.2 ConcreteConcrete is a mineral building material which is made fromthree basic ingredients; cement, aggregate and water. Specialadditives are used to influence or change certain properties.Concrete has a relatively high compressive strength comparedto its tensile strength. Thus, steel reinforcing bars are cast inconcrete to carry the tensile forces, and this combination isreferred to as reinforced concrete.Cement is the binding agent which combines with water andaggregate and hardens through the process of hydration toform concrete. Portland cement is the most common cementand is available in several different types, as outlined in ASTMC 150, to meet specific design requirements.The aggregates used in concrete consist of both fineaggregate (usually sand) and coarse aggregate graded byparticle size. Different types of aggregates can be used tocreate concrete with specific characteristics. Normal weightconcrete is generally made from crushed stone or gravel.Lightweight concrete is used when it is desirable to reducethe dead load on a structure or to achieve a superior fire ratingfor a floor structure. Lightweight aggregates are made fromexpanded clay, shale, slate or blast-furnace slag. Lightweightinsulating concrete is used when thermal insulating propertiesare a prime consideration. Lightweight insulating aggregatesare manufactured from perlite, vermiculite, blast-furnaceslag, clay or shale. Sand lightweight concrete is made fromlightweight aggregate and natural sand. All concrete witha unit weight between 85 and 115 pcf is considered to bestructural lightweight concrete. The ASTM specification andunit weight for each of these concretes is summarized asfollows:ASTMConcreteTypeAggregate GradingSpecificationConcrete UnitWeight pcfNormal WeightASTM C 33145-155Sand LightweightASTM C 330105-115All LightweightASTM C 33085-110LightweightASTM C 33215-90Insulating ConcreteThe type and mechanical properties of concrete aggregatehave a major influence on the behavior of drill bits used to drillanchor holes. The harder aggregates cause higher bit wearand reduced drilling performance.The hardness of concrete aggregate can also affect the loadcapacity of power-actuated fasteners and anchors. Drivenfasteners or studs can generally penetrate soft aggregates(shale or limestone), but hard aggregates (like granite) near thesurface of the concrete can adversely affect the penetrationof a fastener or stud and reduce its load capacity. The effectof aggregate mechanical properties on anchor performanceis less well understood, although in general harder/denseraggregates such as granite tend to result in higher concretecone breakout loads, whereas lightweight aggregates producelower tension and shear capacities.Values for the ultimate strength of fasteners in concreteare traditionally given in relation to the 28-day uniaxialcompressive strength of the concrete (actual, not specified).Concrete which has cured for less than 28 days is referredto as green concrete. Aggregate type, cement replacementssuch as fly ash, and admixtures could have an effect on thecapacity of some fasteners, and this may not be reflected inthe concrete strength as measured in a uniaxial compressiontest. Generally, Hilti data reflects testing with commonaggregates and cement types in plain, unreinforced concrete.In questionable cases, consult with Hilti Technical Support.In view of the significantly lower strength of green concrete(less than 28-day cure), it is recommended that anchors andpower-actuated fastenings not be made in cast-in-placeconcrete which has cured for less than 7 days, unless sitetesting is performed to verify the fastening capacity. If ananchor is installed in green concrete, but not loaded until theconcrete has achieved full cure, the capacity of the anchorcan be based on the strength of the concrete at the time ofloading. Power-actuated fastening capacity should be basedon the concrete strength at the time of installation.Cutting through concrete reinforcement when drilling holesfor anchors should be avoided. If this is not possible, theresponsible design engineer should be consulted first.Hilti, Inc.

Fastening Technology2.1 Base Materials2.1.3 Masonry Materials8"Masonry is a heterogeneous building material consisting ofbrick, block or clay tile bonded together using joint mortar.The primary application for masonry is the construction ofwalls which are made by placing masonry components inhorizontal rows (course) and vertical rows (wythe). Masonrycomponents are manufactured in a wide variety of shapes,sizes, materials and both hollow and solid configurations.These variations require that the selection of an anchoring orfastening system be carefully matched to the application andtype of masonry material being used. As a base material,masonry generally has a much lower strength than concrete.The behavior of the masonry components, as well as thegeometry of their cavities and webs, has a considerableinfluence on the ultimate load capacity of the fastening.When drilling holes for anchors in masonry with hollowcavities, care must be taken to avoid spalling on the insideof the face shell. This could greatly affect the performanceof toggle type mechanical anchors whose length must bematched to the face shell thickness. To reduce the potentialfor spalling, holes should be drilled using rotation only (i.e.hammering action of the drill turned off).2.1.3.1 Concrete BlockConcrete block is the term which is commonly used to refer toconcrete masonry units (CMU) made from Portland cement,water and mineral aggregates. CMUs are manufacturedin a variety of shapes and sizes using normal weight andlightweight aggregates. Both hollow and solid load bearingCMUs are produced in accordance with ASTM C90.NominalMinimum face-shellMinimum webThicknessAThicknessAin. (mm)in. (mm)in.

Actual dimensions are nominal dimensionsreduced by the thickness of the mortar joint.Concrete block construction can be reinforced, wherebyreinforcing bars are placed vertically in the cells andthose cells are filled with grout to create a compositesection analogous to reinforced concrete. If all cells,both unreinforced and reinforced, are filled with grout,the construction is referred to as fully grouted. If only thereinforced cells are grouted, the construction is referred toas partially grouted. Horizontal reinforcing may be placed inthe wall via a bond beam, which is always grouted. Ladderreinforcement may also be placed in the mortar bed betweencourses. Grout typically conforms to ASTM C476 and hasa compressive strength of at least 2,000 psi. Concretemasonry units have a compressive strength which mayrange from 1,250 to over 4,800 psi, although the maximumspecified compressive strength of the assembled masonrywill generally not exceed 3,000 psi. In general, both chemicaland mechanical anchors may be used in grouted CMU. Ifvoids are present or suspected, mechanical anchors shouldnot be used, and chemical anchors should only be installedin conjunction with a screen tube to prevent uncontrolled flowof the bonding material. In hollow CMU, anchor strength isgenerally assumed to be derived from the face shell thickness,which can be variable.1-1/4 (32)B 12 (305)1-1/2 (38)1-1/8 (29)1-1/4 (32)BAdapted from ASTM C 90.A Average of measurements on three units taken at the thinnestpoint.B This face-shell thickness is applicable where the allowable designload is reduced in proportion
