PD CEN/TR 17080 is applicable to the design of fastenings for use in concrete for anchor channels.
PD CEN/TR 17080 technical report provides design rules for anchor channels under static and quasi-static shear loads acting in direction of the longitudinal channel axis and all possible combinations of shear and tension loads acting on the channel as well as design rules for anchor channels with supplementary reinforcement to take up shear loads, additional and alternative to the provisions of EN 1992-4:2018. All relevant failure modes are considered and will be verified.
Note-
Fatigue, impact, and seismic loads are not covered.
PD CEN/TR 17080 on anchor channels is useful for:
PD CEN/TR 17080 is the alternative provision of EN 1992-4:2018 which covers anchor channels located in cracked or uncracked concrete subjected to tensile loads and/or shear loads transverse to the longitudinal channel axis as well as combinations of these loads.
PD CEN/TR 17080 provides supplementary rules for the design of anchor channels for cases not currently covered by EN 1992-4:2018.
You can use PD CEN/TR 17080 for the design method for anchor channels loaded in shear in direction of the longitudinal axis of the channel follows closely the existing design model for headed fasteners that will help you in simple modifications specific for anchor, channels are used where necessary. Also, supplementary reinforcement that will help you to take up shear loads in case of anchor channels situated parallel to the edge and loaded in shear transverse to the longitudinal axis applies to anchor channels with an unlimited number of anchors.
