Developing NDT Methods to Evaluate Large Anchor Bolts
Reclamation has built a number of dams that use large anchor bolts to support large spillway gates. These bolts measure up to three inches in diameter and are over 10 feet long. Many of them were installed more than 50 years ago. Having been in place for a half a century or longer, it is imperative to find a non-destructive method to determine the load-carrying capacity of these bolts. No methods currently have been identified. Large anchor bolts are used on a wide variety of infrastructures including dams, highway structures, electrical towers, large tanks, nuclear power plants, foundations and mining. The absence of having a method to determine the load-carrying capacity of large anchor bolts has lead to the use of unsupported conjectures about the load carrying capacity of these bolts.
