Concrete Anchor Epoxy & Chemical Bolt Capsule vs Expansion Bolt - Pull Out Strength Differences

[@enricoderojassarson5596]

Strong winds can result in long duration structure vibrations which weaken and allow mechanical anchors to fail. Stick with Simpson or Sika two part epoxy, I have tested those products in material labs and the concrete fails before the rebar or threaded rod ever will But that is only when you are anchoring to existing concrete footing. Nothing beats a L-anchor rod set in wet concrete for complete structural integrity

I highly Suggest this Eagle Bond Brand Epoxy AB500 anchor epoxy, We use this to most of our site installation without any problem. very affordable and we notice that its quality is on par or even greater with sika or hilti..

[@ajli4802]

Can we use wedge anchor with the epoxy? It will be stronger?

[@bajrangmakwana5129]

Good job

[@jamesmyers5509]

Can you use the epoxy and bolts to install an unground hoop into excisting concrete that is 18" thick?

[@John-vk1ij]

This is crazy. I'm shocked by how much pull-out force the chemical bolt can offer. I guess the only drawback is that they can't be easily removed once the epoxy cures?

[@behemothinferno]

Right

[@TheCclement10]

remove with angle grinder lol

[@behemothinferno]

@@TheCclement10 He means extract not cut off the piece that is protruding with a grinder

[@TH-bj1pb]

​@@behemothinfernoyou really didn't get it, did you? 😂 what behemot points out is that is impossible, henche the angle grinder tip. 😅

You could probably just use cheap craft epoxy and it'd be 90% as good. Add in some milled fibers and maybe some fumed silica and it'd bve even better.

Eagle bond epoxy chemical anchoring solution injection type = glue. What is wrong with people naming things…

[@John17apologetics]

😂 but it doesn't sound sophisticated.

[@ralphdaduya7046]

Is it OK to combine concrete epoxy with Chemical Bolt Capsule type?

[@Dodixon55]

The question is why?

[@crmags]

Holding strength is not additive. Once it hits the 85kN of the epoxy the dynabolt will immediately fail. And worse, the dynabolt will damage the concrete.

Good job
