Abstract

The surface shape of the anchorages and their effect on the adhesion stress were analyzed. Anchors made of plain and threaded rods were put together. It was assessed whether a smooth bar in this type of anchorages could ful fill the actual role of a connector. Groups of anchors in various anchor systems were put together and smooth anchorages compared to threaded anchors. Four types of diameters were considered: Φ 8 mm, Φ 10 mm, Φ 12 mm and Φ 20 mm.
