Selecting Seismic Performance Categories for Post-Installed Fasteners in Concrete
Various forms of specification criteria exist in international codes for selecting the required level of prequalification for post-installed fasteners in concrete. In general, there are inconsistencies between existing specifications that tend to be tailored to each country’s/region’s seismicity, design, and construction practice. This study evaluates existing approaches and provides recommendations for selecting suitable seismic performance categories for regions without such specifications with a focus on low-to-moderate seismic regions such as Australia. A detailed review of international practice is presented followed by a holistic seismic assessment of reinforced concrete buildings. Based on the findings, a specification criterion for Australia is recommended.
