The parameter N ba corresponds to a calculated bond strength for a single adhesive anchor element without any fixed edge or spacing influences . Calculation of N ba is predicated on the characteristic bond stress of the adhesive product ( т cr or т uncr
), the anchor element geometry ( π da and h ef
), and a modification factor for lightweight concrete ( λ a
). Adhesive anchor systems tested per the ICC-ES acceptance criteria AC308 can also include an additional seismic modification factor ( α N , seis
) when calculating N ba . h ef is defined as the “ effective embedment depth of an anchor .” This parameter corresponds to the embedded portion of the anchor that is “ effective ” in transferring tension load from the anchor into the concrete . ACI 318-14 Equation ( 17.4.5.2 ) includes h ef for calculating N ba
.
Testing per the ICC-ES acceptance criteria AC308 and the ACI test standard ACI 355.4 is used to derive product-specific data that is used in ACI 318-14 bond strength calculations for an adhesive anchor system . Data derived from this testing , as well as some of the parameters used to develop this data , are provided in an ICC-ESR . The minimum effective embedment depth ( h ef , min
) derived from this testing is specific to the anchor element ( e . g . threaded rod , rebar , internally threaded insert ), and to the adhesive product . AC308 limits the maximum effective embedment depth ( h ef , max
) for adhesive anchor systems to a value of 20 times the anchor diameter ( 20d a
). For post-installed adhesive anchors , PROFIS Engineering permits users to input h ef values that are within the embedment depth range given in the ICC-ESR for a specific anchor element , diameter , and adhesive product .

1 Bond strength values correspond to concrete compressive strength f ́c = 2500 psi . For concrete compressive strength f ́c between 2500 psi and 800 psi , the tabulated characteristic bond strength may be increased by a factor of ( f ́c / 2500 ) 0 . 1 .
2 Temperature Range A : Maximum short term temperature = 130 ° F , Maximum long term temperature = 110 ° F . Temperature Range B : Maximum short term temperature = 176 ° F , Maximum long term temperature = 110 ° F . Temperature Range C : Maximum short term temperature = 248 ° F , Maximum long term temperature = 162 ° F . Short term elevated concrete temperatures are those which occur over brief intervals , e . g . as a result of diurnal cycling . Long term concrete temperatures are roughly constant over significant periods of time .
