#134 CHANNEL SLOT CORRUGATED
ANCHOR
Heckmann Technical Guide
Test is a pullout of the corrugated section from two common bricks.
SIZE: Anchors were 16 gage x 1-1/4" (31.75mm) wide x 3-1/2" (88.9mm) long from the face of the channel, made from Mill-Galvanized Steel conforming to ASTM A-527 G90.
APPLICATION: Anchors secure masonry or stone facing material to channel slots which are anchored to back-up walls or welded to steel columns and beams. Usually spaced 16" (406.4mm) o.c.
TEST CONDITIONS: Anchors were embedded 2-1/2" (63.5mm) deep in horizontal joint between two common bricks with Type N Mortar mixed 3-1 ratio and allowed to stand over 28 days (approximately 3500 psi). Mortar joints were approximately 5/8" (15.875mm) with the anchors centered in the joints permitting mortar to be on both sides of the anchor corrugation. The samples were tested to failure at a crosshead speed of 0.5"/minute (12.7mm/minute).
