Why Pull Out Testing?
Pull Out Testing for on-site anchors is required for two main reasons.
To determine the suitability of a fixing and the Allowable Resistance of an anchor in the case where no manufacturer’s data is available for the specific base material concerned.
To validate the quality of installation of anchors used on the job (i.e. quality check).
BET carry out the independent Pull Out Testing of anchors to help establish the strength of fixings that have been installed into walls and floors. Our Pull Out Fixing tests are essential for high-rise commercial buildings, railways, highways agencies, and airports.
There are a number of factors that can affect the strength and durability of eyebolts, anchor bolts, scaffold ties, stud anchors, resin bolts and safety wires.
By carrying out this independent test, any flaws or anomalies will be discovered, and remedial actions can be taken. Generally, a visual inspection cannot guarantee the strength and condition of bolts and Pull Out Testing is the only way to establish the condition of bolts.
