The study on the effect of the reinforcement scale to the anchorage applications at concrete components

Anchorage applications are used in reinforcement works of constructions very often. They are also used very often at field of building-up of prefabricates, billboards, external covering. Lots of researches have been made about anchorage applications. These studies mostly include unreinforced concrete. Within the scope of this study, different percentages of reinforcements were located on anchorage applications to determine the effect of reinforcement ratio to the anchorage strength and 4 pilot components were produced which had variable stirrup spacing. 48 anchorages of 16 mm diameter were located on these components having different dephths. Axial tension test was applied on the fixed-up anchorages. According to the experimental study, it was understood that the change of reinforcement scale and stirrup spacing didn't have much effect on the strength, but the collapse modes. Meanwhile, it was observed that anchorage depth was one of the most important factors for the strength. Keywords: Chemical anchorage, Anchorage depth, Reinforcement scale, Stirrup spacing
