Abstract

ABAQUS software had been employed to analyze the performance of steel-to-concrete connections with post-installed adhesive anchor, which subjected to combined bending moment and shear loads. The study focused on the effect of spacing and edge distance of anchors on anchorage behavior. Analysis results indicated that independent concrete cones appeared in the case of spacing 12d. Overlapped concrete cone occurred in final failure when spacing is 5d and 8d. Based on the analysis of edge distance, the anchorage strength had significant reduction because of the inadequate concrete load-bearing area in edge distance 5d. With the increase of edge distance, there was enough concrete area to resist and transfer the applied load, and the whole concrete cone would be within concrete base which guarantees to form independent concrete cone. At last critical value 8d of edge distance was suggested in order to fully develop anchor steel strength.
