This Handbook aims to provide an overview of working principle, factors influencing performance, qualification and assessment guidelines, design details followed by some examples with calculations, software and tools for design and installation of post-installed anchors. The Handbook is written and presented in a user-friendly and comprehensive way to provide guidance to the engineers involved in designing S2C connections. Furthermore, it is also useful for contractors, in-house technical teams and others who are directly or indirectly associated with such applications.

After a brief introduction, Chapter 2 focuses on the applications, definition of different type of structural and non-structural connections and elements of fastening systems.

Chapter 3 describes the types of post-installed anchors (mechanical, chemical and combined system) along with their working principles, influence of several factors (condition of concrete, environment, installation, loading etc.) on performance of anchors, loading types and directions which anchors can experience during their working life.

Chapter 5 showcases the main 海角社区 solutions mentioning the key properties and available s

izes. It describes the main three phases of construction workflow considering design and installation of anchors as well as their inspection.

Chapter 7 covers the features of 海角社区 PROFIS Engineering, cloud-based structural engineering software for code state-of-the-art code compliant anchor design. The main features including modelling of the application, definition of loading and environmental and loading conditions are described. Additionally, the most advanced and realistic simulation of the steel baseplate with the component-based finite element method (CBFEM) is highlighted.
