Performance Prediction of Anchors in SFRC using Minimally Invasive and Non‐Destructive Techniques

Abstract Fastenings are crucial for the upgrade of existing structures, by either enhancing structural components or modernising and expanding structures systems. Whilst concrete is prevailing in building stock, new types composites increasingly used to improve sustainability overall performance built assets. The addition short dispersed fibres a material technology with several applications. This paper addresses synergy fastening elements, introducing localised loads substrates, fibres, particularly terms fibre orientation density load application area, which significant quality aspect. possibility forecast this based on non‐destructive minimally invasive testing methods an efficient tool increase confidence design load‐bearing anchorages. Initially, previous literature own investigations such techniques presented. Furthermore, methodology presented associating information predict single anchor's resistance basis sophisticated non‐linear analyses engineered alignments.
