Adoption Info of Georgia Post-Installed Adhesive Anchors in Concrete Code 2011
- ACI 355.4-11 (Qualification of Post-Installed Adhesive Anchors in Concrete) with Georgia-specific amendments
Effective Dates
- January 1, 2011 – Present
Adopts with Amendments
- ACI 355.4-11 (Qualification of Post-Installed Adhesive Anchors in Concrete)
Scope
- The Georgia Post-Installed Adhesive Anchors in Concrete Code applies to the design, installation, and inspection of adhesive anchors in concrete structures. This code ensures that adhesive anchors meet safety and performance standards for load-bearing applications in structural concrete. It includes requirements for anchor qualification, installation procedures, testing, and environmental conditions to ensure durability and safety.
Exception #1: Non-structural applications, such as light-duty attachments, may follow alternative guidelines if they do not support critical loads.
Exception #2: Temporary anchor installations in construction projects may have reduced requirements, depending on duration and load demands.
