What is PD CEN/TR 17081 - Plastic design of fastenings with headed and post-installed fasteners about?
PD CEN/TR 17081 is applicable to the design of fastenings for use in concrete for the plastic design of fastenings with headed and post-installed fasteners.
PD CEN/TR 17081 technical report gives provisions for design of ultimate limit states in addition to EN 1992-4 for headed and post-installed fasteners excluding concrete screws, which only transmit static actions to the concrete when the loads on individual fasteners are determined according to the plastic analysis of the joint where only equilibrium conditions but no compatibility conditions are considered.
Note-
Fatigue, impact and seismic loads are not covered.
Who is PD CEN/TR 17081 - Plastic design of fastenings with headed and post-installed fasteners for?
PD CEN/TR 17081 on the plastic design of fastenings with headed and post-installed fasteners is useful for:
- Fasteners manufacturers
- Construction industry 
- Civil engineer 
- Contractors
Why should you use PD CEN/TR 17081 - Plastic design of fastenings with headed and post-installed fasteners?
PD CEN/TR 17081 is used in conjunction with EN 1992-4 which provides significant redistribution of forces in individual fasteners of fastenings implicit in plastic analysis.
PD CEN/TR 17081 provides you with the field of application, loads on fastenings, design of fastenings.
You can adapt PD CEN/TR 17081 when the failure is governed by ductile steel failure of the fastening under tension, shear or combined tension and shear loads.
