ACI 349, Appendix B. (ACI 349, Appendix: 3.6.3 Lateral Bursting Failure

The document discusses different failure modes for concrete anchors including shear cone, pullout, lateral bursting, and localized bearing failure. It recommends using the CCD method instead of the cone model if no reinforcement is present and provides guidance on detailing reinforcing steel to prevent pullout failure and on minimum edge distances to prevent lateral bursting.

failure surface proj ecting from the bolt head upward at an angle toward the direction

of the applied load. This failure surface is what is commonly called the "shear cone"
that resembles the model used by ACI 349, Appendix B.
e
The choice of whether to use the cone model (ACI 349, Appendix B) or the
e pyramid model (CCD method) is not significant if reinforcement is going to be used
to transfer the design force, as will typically be the case for petrochemical anchorage
e designs. If reinforcement is not required to transfer the design loads or if no
reinforcement crosses the failure surface, it is recommended that the engineer use the
CCD method as described in the paper by Fuchs, et al. Experimental evidence
presented in this paper indicates that the cone model and equations given by A CI
349, Appendix B, may overpredict the capacity of an anchor in unreinforced
concrete.

Section 3.6 of this document provides recommendations for detailing reinforcing


steel to transfer tensile forces and prevent pullout failure.

3.6.3 Lateral Bursting Failure

Lateral bursting occurs when a deeply embedded anchor is located too close to
s
the edge of the concrete, resulting in directional differences in restraint stiffness
Ir
around the anchor bolt head and a corresponding lateral strain concentration on the
>t side of the free edge. The result is a cone blowout failure that propagates from the
Ir
head of the bolt to the edge of the concrete.
d
The minimum edge distance required to prevent lateral bursting is discussed in
Section 3.7.2.2.

3.6.4 Localized Bearing Failure

3.6.4.1 Background

Traditional design procedures rely upon bond strength to use J-shaped or L-


shaped bolts in smaller sizes and use a bolt with a bearing plate in the larger sizes.
The plate was sized based on concrete bearing strength. In ACI 349, Appendix B
(1980), for instance, bearing strength for small loaded areas is taken as:

~fJBn = (2)(0.85)4>( (3.7)
