Chemical Anchoring - Anchor Studs

CHEMICAL ANCHORING - ANCHOR STUDS

Chemical Anchoring
Anchor Studs

The key advantage of ChemSet chemical anchors is that they do not

impart an expansion stress on the surrounding substrate. This makes
chemical anchoring ideal for close to edge fixings or for close anchor
spacings.

The Ramset ChemSet range of chemical anchoring systems

provide different options of cost and performance for the designer and
for the applicator.

The superior bond of ChemSet chemical anchors makes them ideal

for installing starter bars, because the required pull out strength
is achieved in shallower holes than is possible with cementitious
mortars.

The ability of ChemSet chemical anchors to sustain cyclic tensile

loads depends on adhesive bond, not on preload or tightening torque.
The adhesive bond does not deteriorate or change over time making
Chemset chemical anchors ideal for cyclic and vibrating load cases.

Estimating Chart

The superior strength of grade 5.8 carbon steel threaded stud anchors
gives the ChemSet chemical anchor systems greater steel capacity
than regular grade 4.6 threaded rod.

For the designer, selection of the correct chemical anchoring solution

to his or her design problem will often be based upon the strength
capacity of the system, but may also involve issues such as chemical
resistance.
The following section introduces the designer and/or engineer to the
components of the ChemSet chemical anchoring range and provides
information to allow selection of the anchor with the right capacity for
various environmental conditions.

Installation

Service temperature limits:

-40C to 80C

Setting Times EPCON C8

1. Drill recommended diameter and depth hole.

2. Important: Use Ramset Dustless Drilling System to ensure holes
are clean. Alternatively, clean dust and debris from hole with stiff wire
or nylon brush and blower in the following sequence: blow x 4, brush
x 3, blow x 4, brush x 3, blow x 4.
3. Insert mixing nozzle to bottom of hole. Fill hole to 3/4 the hole depth
slowly, ensuring no air pockets form.
4. Insert Ramset ChemSet Anchor Stud/rebar to
bottom of hole while turning.
5. Allow EPCON C8 to cure as per setting times.
6. Attach fixture.

Step 1c Calculate anchor effective depth, h (mm)

Refer to Description and Part Numbers table for ChemSet Anchor Studs on page 43.

Effective depth, h (mm)

Preferred h = hn otherwise,

h = Le - t
h * 6 * dh
t = total thickness of material(s) being fastened.

www.ramset.co.nz

Anchor size determined, absolute minima compliance achieved, effective depth (h) calculated.

Chemical Anchoring - Anchor Studs

PERFORMANCE RELATED

INSTALLATION RELATED

Product
Epcon C6 is a versitile pure epoxy anchoring
adhesive

Benefits, Advantages and Features

Features
Superior strength in shallow embedment.
Close to edge, stress free anchoring.
Suitable for use with zinc plated, hot dipped galvanized or stainless
steel Chemset Anchor Studs.
Resistant to cyclic loading and vibration.

Principal Applications

Resistant to alkaline conditions.

Suitable for use in core drilled holes.
Superior strength with grade 5.8 steel Chemset Anchor Studs.
Suitable for underwater installations.

Installation

St uc u a beams
Structural
bea s and
a d columns
co u ns
Batten fixing
Installing, handrails, balustrades and gates
Racking
Safety barriers
Stadium seating
Machiner and heav
Machinery
heavy plant
ant hold down

Installation temperature limits:

Substrate: 5C to 40C.
Mortar: 15C to 35C.
Load should not be applied to anchor until the chemical has
sufficiently cured as specified.

1. Drill recommended diameter and depth hole.

2. Important: Use Ramset Dustless Drilling System to ensure holes
are clean. Alternatively, clean dust and debris from hole with stiff wire
or nylon brush and blower in the following sequence: blow x 4, brush
x 3, blow x 4, brush x 3, blow x 4.
3. Insert mixing nozzle to bottom of hole.
Fill hole to 3/4 the hole depth slowly,
ensuring no air pockets form.
4. Insert Ramset ChemSet Anchor Stud/rebar to
bottom of hole while turning.
5. Allow to cure as per setting times.
6. Attach fixture.

Substrate Temperature

1. Drill recommended diameter and depth hole.

2. Important: Use Ramset Dustless Drilling System to ensure holes
are clean. Alternatively, clean dust and debris from hole with stiff wire
or nylon brush and blower in the following sequence: blow x 4, brush
x 3, blow x 4, brush x 3, blow x 4.
3. Insert mixing nozzle to bottom of hole.
Fill hole to 3/4 the hole depth slowly, ensuring no air pockets form.
4. Insert Ramset ChemSet Anchor Stud/rebar to bottom of hole
while turning.
5. ChemSet Injection to cure as per setting times.
6. Attach fixture.

1. Drill recommended diameter and depth hole.

2. Important: Use Ramset Dustless Drilling System to ensure holes
are clean. Alternatively, clean dust and debris from hole with stiff wire
or nylon brush and blower in the following sequence: blow x 4, brush
x 3, blow x 4, brush x 3, blow x 4.
3. Insert mixing nozzle to bottom of hole.
Fill hole to 3/4 the hole depth slowly,
ensuring no air pockets form.
4. Insert Ramset ChemSet Anchor Stud/rebar to
bottom of hole while turning.
5. Allow Structaset 401 to cure as per setting times.
6. Attach fixture.

Refer to Description and Part Numbers table for Chemset Anchor Studs (Page 43 of Ramset Specifiers Resource Book)
Effective depth, h (mm)
Preferred h = hn otherwise,

h = Le - t
h * 6 * dh
t = total thickness of material(s) being fastened

Substrate thickness, bm (mm)

bm = greater of: 1.25 x h,

h + (2 x dh)

sufficiently cured as specified in the following diagrams.

Service temperature limits:

-40C to 80C.

Setting Times
101 PLUS
2

1. Drill recommended diameter and depth hole.

2. Important: Use Ramset Dustless Drilling System to ensure holes
are clean. Alternatively, clean dust and debris from hole with stiff wire
or nylon brush and blower in the following sequence: blow x 4, brush
x 3, blow x 4, brush x 3, blow x 4.
3. Insert mixing nozzle to bottom of hole.
Fill hole to 3/4 the hole depth slowly, ensuring no air pockets form.
4. Insert Ramset ChemSet Anchor Stud/rebar to bottom of hole
while turning.
5. ChemSet Injection to cure as per setting times.
6. Attach fixture.

1. Drill recommended diameter and depth hole.

2. Important: Use Ramset Dustless Drilling System to ensure holes
are clean. Alternatively, clean dust and debris from hole with stiff wire
or nylon brush and blower in the following sequence: blow x 4, brush
x 3, blow x 4, brush x 3, blow x 4.
3. Insert correct size Spin capsule into the hole.
4. Using appropriate driver accessories, drive the ChemSet Anchor
Stud into the hole using a hammer drill (on rotation).
5. Cure as per setting times.
6. Attach fixture and tighten nut in accordance with recommended
tightening torque.
