FUNDAMENTAL DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
The design of the anchors must consider:-Ultimate Limit States (ULS) and Serviceability
Limit States (SLS) of the anchor,
ULS and SLS of the supported structure.
Prestress forces and the effect of prestress forces, where relevant.
Design of Anchors – Use of New Section 8:EC 7
10
Ultimate limit state (ULS) design force to be resisted by the anchors
EULS,d ≤ RULS;d Eq. 8.1
where EULS,d = max(FULS,d; FServ,d) Eq. 8.2 and FServ,d = ServFServ,k Eq. 8.3
RULS;d = Design value of the resistance of an anchor complying with ULS criteriaEULS,d = ULS design force to be resisted by the anchor FULS,d = Design value of the force required to prevent any ULS in the supported structure.FServ,d = design value of the maximum anchor force (expected within the design life of the anchor), including effect of lock off load, and sufficient to prevent a SLS in the supported structure.Serv = partial factor
Design of Anchors – Use of New Section 8:EC 7
11
Serviceability Limit State
FServ,k ≤ RSLS;d Eq.8.4
FServ,k = characteristic value of the maximum anchor force (expected within the design life of the anchor), including effect of lock off load, and sufficient to prevent a SLS in the supported structure.
RSLS;d = design value of the resistance of an anchor complying with SLS criteria
Note, assumes partial factor of unity

Note:-RULS;d and, where required RSLS;d
must be determined/validated by anchor tests.

Taking 3m spacing of anchors
24
Summary (using default values)Anchor spacing of 3m
Preliminary estimate of bond length (NOT COVERED IN EUROCODE) • Hole dia = 0.25m• sv'ave = 3*18+7*10 = 74 kPa and taking K value =2 • L = 426/(2x74xTan 38x3.1416x0.25)= 4.7m
• Investigation tests – Load to be taken to at least 426kN.
• Suitability tests on selected anchors, load to be taken to 426kN
• Acceptability tests (on all anchors), load to be taken to 426kN ????
• These tests are required to validate that the anchors have the required RULS,d and, if specified in the NA, RSLS,d

Measuring RULS,m and RSLS,m of an anchor(draft ISO/DIS 22477-5)
Method 1 Method 2 Method 3Type of loading Cycle loading Cycle loading In steps
Rest periods Maintained loads Maintained deflection Maintained load Measurements
Tendon head displacement vs applied load at end of each cycle
Load-loss vs time at the highest load of each cycle
Anchor head displacement vs anchor load at the beginning and end of each load step.,
Tendon head displacement vs time
k1 versus anchor load Anchor head displacement vs time for each load step.
a1 versus anchor load a3 versus anchor load or bond load, if possible.
Displacement vs load for all cycles
RULS,m Currently a1=2mm Load loss ≤ 5% at PP or displacement ≤ 5% De over log cycle of time (from BS8081)
When plot of a3 vs load, is asymptote or a3 =5mm
RSLS,m Not defined Load loss ≤ 1%at PP or rate of displacement should
reduce to 1% De over log cycle of time (from BS8081)
Pc (from as vs load, end of pseudo linear portion)

Structural Design
EULS,d ≤ Rt;d
i.e 386kN ≤ Rt;d Eq 8.11where EULS,d = Ultimate limit state design force to be
resisted by the anchor. Rt;d = Design resistance of the
structural element

Cl 8.5.4 (2)P of EN 1997-1:2004 refers to 5.10.2.1 from EN 1992-1-1:2005 Cl 5.10.2.1(2)P - overstressing to 0.95fy is permitted if the force in the jack can be measured to an accuracy of ±5%
PP = 426kN (=1.1xEULS,d) Therefore PP ≤ 0.95*629 = 597 kN > 426kN therefore OK
STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENT FOR PROOF TESTING
29
Significant of changes
• The new proposals presents a rational design method for anchors
• The current anchor testing practices in many countries will required modification.
• The introduction of FServ,k is relatively novel within the Eurocode system.

30
Comparison with present system
• Current practice in UK & Ireland is to use BS8081
• Design is based on ‘working’ load Tw
• No proper definition of Tw is given (Tw can be zero in some uplift situation, for example)
• Design of anchors to BS8081 does not consider ULS explicitly.
