ONSITE TESTING FOR REBAR AND ANCHORS

Hilti's onsite tests for post-installed rebar and fastenings

Hilti onsite testing

You need to carry out onsite testing for rebar and anchors if you don’t know the load capacity of base material.

This is if a base material isn’t covered by ETA guidelines or by Hilti technical data – such as when the base material is old or damaged concrete or rock.

Onsite testing calculates the design resistance of a base material and can determine which anchor system is right to use for your installation. Onsite testing can be carried out using a destructive pull-out test or a non-destructive proof load test.

 

From 1st Aug 2023 onwards, you will need to know the Proof Load and a SO# to schedule onsite testing. Please reach out to your dedicated Hilti account manager for assistance if necessary.

WHEN TO CARRY OUT ONSITE TESTING

You can use onsite testing in the design phase and after the installation of a fastening system.
