Anchors vs Rebar: Seismic Fastening in New Zealand

Learn about seismic anchor theory, rebar theory, and where these should be used in your projects

This course explains the underlying principles of post installed anchoring and post installed rebar theory. We will address the best seismic design practice and pre-qualification for post-installed anchors in standard concrete sections, metal deck slabs, and hollow core slabs. We will also look at the best design practice for post installed rebar and where these differing theories need to be applied. This Webinar took place on Thursday the 6th of December, 2018.
