The latest in fastenings is spelled out in Anchorage in Concrete Construction.
A comprehensive treatment of current fastening technology including
inserts, post-installed anchors, as well as power-actuated fasteners, in both
concrete and masonry. The section "Fastenings in Concrete" describes
in detail these elements together with their behavior and load-bearing
capacities in cracked and uncracked concrete, while also considering the
effects of corrosion and fire, as well as earthquake and shock loading.
It concludes with an assessment of fastenings, illustrated by numerous
examples. The "Fastenings in Masonry" section goes on to deal with
several different types of masonry and describes the load bearing
characteristics with an assessment of plastic fastenings and injection-molded
anchors, including criteria for selecting the correct fastening. 380 pp.
