10.2 Product Information Hilti HIT-HY150 Rebar
10.2.1 The injection system
The Hilti HIT-HY150 injection system is designed to be safe and simple inapplication resulting in high quality reinforcement fixings.
Its components:
Dispenser MD2000:Manual dispenser.Ergonomic design.Consistent performance.
Foil pack:330ml of two-component adhesive.Opens automatically.Reliable mixing.
Cassette as «refillable cartridge»:Stability in use.Storage function.Reduces waste.
10.2.2 Adhesive bond
Hilti HIT-HY 150 adhesive is a hybrid system consisting of organic and inorganic binding agents.
The polymerisation reaction of the resin component ensures good bon-ding and a rapid curing injection system with good handling characteri-stics.
The cementitious reaction improves stiffness and bonding, especially athigher temperatures.
The combined action of the two components results in negligible materialshrinkage.
The result is a very strong bond between rebar and concrete similar tothat of cast in situ reinforcement.
The hybrid mortar contains no styrene and is virtually odourless.

10.2.3 Installation
The holes shall be drilled with arotary percussive drill to ensureadequate hole surface roughn-ess. Diamond core drills shallnot be used without subse-quent surface roughening. Ho-les shall be dry at the time ofanchor installation.
Used foil packs can be stored inthe cassette for up to fourweeks. To restart, just changethe mixer nozzle.Reject material from first triggerpull.
Start injecting from the bottomof the hole to ensure completefilling. Some mortar shouldoverflow upon inserting the reb-ar to show complete filling.
Allow for complete curing befo-re applying any load.
To transfer shear loads the surfa-ce of the existing concreteshould be roughened.

The curing time is dependent on temperature:
Foil pack temperature between 5 °C and 40 °C!
The correct drill diameter is important for the perfomance of the adhesivebond as well as for the economy of the application.
The necessary injection volume can be calculated to fill the space bet-ween rebar and hole wall plus enough safety measure to allow for toodeep drilling, cavities in the base material, overflow etc.
Rule of thumb: fill hole 2/3 full

10.3 Rebar Fastening Design Concept
10.3.1 Scope
The design method presented here is based on Eurocode 2: ENV 1992-1-1 «Design of concrete structures, Part1, General rules and rules for buil-dings» [5]
Consequently, it only applies to reinforced concrete. In the case of non-reinforced concrete, – or if the reinforcement is not known – the anchortheory in the fastening technology manual must be used.
Rebar connections in reinforced and non-reinforced concrete set up a dif-ferent flow of forces:
In non-reinforced concrete, the tensileforce, N, is transmitted to the concreteby the connection rebar. The forcewhich can be transmitted depends onthe size of the cone of concrete whichwould break away with the rebar andwhich is influenced by the effectiveanchorage length, edge distance andspacing.
In the case of reinforced concrete, theedge distance and spacing are not ofprimary importance because the ten-sile force is transmitted by theconnection rebars to the cast-in reb-ars via the concrete bond betweenthem.
General rule:
The performance characteristics of rebar fastenings with Hilti HIT-HY150correspond to those of cast-in rebars. All construction rules set up in Eu-rocode 2 apply; in particular, the transmission of the anchoring forcesinto the connecting building components must be ensured in accor-dance with the principles of reinforced concrete construction (e.g.transverse reinforcement, concrete cover etc.).

10.3.3 Fastening design
The working principle of a design is best understood by reviewing thepossible failure modes and setting down corresponding limits to utilisation.
The design load of a connection rebar is:
10.3.3.1 Limit to Rebar Utilisation Ryd
The design tensile force, Ryd, at which therebar steel is fully utilised, results from theproduct of the steel cross-sectional area ti-mes the characteristic strength of the steeldivided by the partial safety factor.
Design value of rebar strength:
This value is crucial when the installed anchorage length is greater thanthe basic anchorage length. (See 3.3.4)
10.3.3.2 Limit to Adhesive Bond Utilisation Rbd
The force which can be taken up in the sur-face of the bond between rebar and adhesi-ve increases linearly with the anchoragelength, but only with the square root of therebar diameter.
Design value of adhesive strength:
Doubling the diameter only results in a 40%increase of the bond strength.

The equation allows for theperformance of the adhesive.
It was determined by Profes-sor Marti of the Swiss Fe-deral Institute of Technology(ETH), Zurich based on a re-view of comprehensive testdata [1].
This value is crucial when the installed anchorage length is smaller thanthe basic anchorage length (see 10.3.3.4) and the class of concrete is hig-her than C 25/30.
10.3.3.3 Limit to Concrete Bond Utilisation Rcd
The force which can be taken up in the bondinterface between mortar and hole wall in-creases linearly with anchorage depth, butonly with the square root of the characteri-stic concrete strength times the hole dia-meter.

The equation allows for the performanceof the bond interface.It was determined by Professor Marti ofthe Swiss Federal Institute of Technology(ETH), Zurich, based on a review of com-prehensive test data [1].
On principle, the partial safety factorwould have to be ��b ��c. Since, how-ever, �b = �c, the formula can be simplified.
Test arrangement
This value is crucial when the installed anchorage length is smaller thanthe basic anchorage length (see 10.3.3.4) and the class of concrete doesnot exceed C 25/30.
10.3.3.4 Basic anchorage length
If this length is exceeded, the steel is fully utilised.
The basic anchorage length is derived by setting
Ryd <_ Rbd
(rebar strength <_ adhesivebond strength)
and
Ryd <_ Rcd
(rebar strength <_concrete bond strength)
As a result, the basic anchorage length is obtained as the maximum valueof the two limiting anchorage lengths:

If it is assumed that D = 1.2 ��
the limit results at fck = 26 N/mm2
Consequently, up to and including C 25/30, it is the grade of concretewhich is crucial, but from C 30/37 it is the grade of Hilti HIT-HY 150 adhe-sive that is decisive.

10.3.4 Detailing Provisions
Basically, a rebar set with HIT HY150 can be considered like a cast-in reb-ar. The basic anchorage length of section 10.3.3.4 corresponds to the ba-sic anchorage length of Eurocode 2. The detailing provisions of Euroco-de 2, some of which are quoted in the following paragraphs, shall be ap-plied to the basic anchorage length of section 10.3.3.4. The rebars setwith HIT HY150 shall be disposed according to the same rules as cast-inrebars would.
10.3.4.1 Minimum Anchorage Length
To ensure that the force acting on the connection rebar is transmitted tothe cast-in rebar, the following lengths must exceed those given in Euro-code 2:
For anchorages in tension:EC2: ENV 1992-1-1 formula (5.5):
lb,min = MAX (0.3 lb[mm]; 10 � � [mm]; 100 [mm])
For anchorages in compression:EC2: ENV 1992-1-1 formula (5.6)
lb,min = MAX (0.6 lb[mm]; 10� � [mm]; 100 [mm])
Column connection10.3.4.2 Splice Length(EC2: ENV 1992-1-1 formula 5.7 and 5.8)
When rebars in tension or compression are lapped, increased splittingforces occur. In order to take up these splitting forces, the anchoragelength lb,inst, defined by sections 10.3.3.1 to 10.3.3.3, must be multipliedby a factor �, which is given in the following table.
lsplice = �*lb,inst
The splice length must exceed the minimum lengths given in the same ta-ble.

10.3.4.3 Distance between cast-in rebars and new rebars
Cast-in rebars and the nearest rebars may touch at length of overlap(EC2: ENV 1992-1-1, 5.2.1.1 (5)).
If the clear space between the connection rebars and the nearest cast-inrebar is . . .
e > 4 ��
the overlap must be increased by an amounte - 4 �� (cf. example 4.2)
The minimum distance between cast-in rebars and farther away connec-tion rebars should be:

10.3.4.4 Poor Bond Conditions
All previously given values apply to good bond conditions.
Poor bond conditions may for exam-ple occur because the concrete be-neath the cast-in rebar sinks.Rebars fastened with Hilti HIT-HY150always have good bond conditions.An increase in anchorage length by afactor 1.4 can be necessary to ensurethe transfer of the load to other (possi-bly poorly bonded) cast in rebars.
Bond conditions according to EC2: ENV 1992-1-1, Fig. 5.1:
Bond conditions are also considered as good if rebars are embedded ver-tically or at an angle of max. 45° to the vertical.
10.3.4.5 Limit State of Cracking
According to EC2: ENV 1992-1-1:4.4.2.1 (6), the maximum design crackwidth must be limited to 0.3 mm for exposure classes 2–4:
Class 2: humid environment with or without frost
Class 3: additionally with de-icing salts
Class 4: and sea water environment.

According to EC2: ENV 1992-1-1: 5.2.4 P(1), the crack width must be ve-rified at the end of the splice of the rebars. Cracks hardly occur in the spli-ce zone itself because of the greater amount of reinforcement i.e. cast-inrebars plus connection rebars.
Pull out tests showthat at the level ofthe recommendedvalues (Fs) the dis-placement is typical-ly below 0.1mm [1].
From this observa-tion and other ex-perimental eviden-ce it can be con-cluded that crackwidth limits are met.
10.3.4.6 Green Concrete
If the rebar connection is to be loaded before the concrete reaches its 28-days compressive strength, the actual strength readingsshould be used with the given formulae. However, special attentionshould be given to concrete creep.

10.4 Examples of applications
The following examples show the large variety of possibilities to solve problems by making rebar connectionswith Hilti HIT HY-150 adhesive.
10.4.1 Wall connection
According to the design calculation, the verti-cally compressed new wall is dimensioned as follows:
Concrete class C 20/25fck = 20 N/mm2
Steel grade fyk = 500 N/mm2
Wall thickness: 18 cmVertical: � 10/20 cm both
sidesHorizontal: � 8/25 cm both

Floor connection: � 10 mm/20 cm both sidestable 10.3.4.1 hole depth = lb = 217 mm
D = 14 mm
Alternative 1: � 12 mm /20 cm both sidesas per 10.3.5.1 Rd = Rd (� 10) = 34.1 kN
at lb,inst = 20 cmRd (�12) = 33.7 kN ˜ 34.1 kNlb,inst > lb,min = MAX (0.6�292; 10�12; 100)

Alternative 2: � 14 mm/20 cm both sidesas per 10.3.5.1 Rd = Rd (� 10) = 34.1 kN
at lb,inst = 19 cmRd(�14) = 34.0 kN ~ 34.1 kN
but lb,inst < lb,min = MAX (0.6�374; 10�14; 100)= 224 mm
If compressive forces are being transmitted, a reduction of the hole depth when using rebars of larger diameter can only be achieved to a moderate extent due to the limitations of the minimum an-chorage length.

lb,inst > lb,min = MAX (0.3*292; 10�12; 100)= 120
It is simple to vary the hole depth by using the tables.
10.4.2 Wall extension
The existing wall is reinforced by �
8mm/25cm rebars and shall be exten-ded by a new wall with the followingcharacteristics:
Concrete class C 20/25fck = 20 N/mm2
Steel grade fyk = 500 N/mm2
Wall thickness: 20 cmHorizontal rebars: � 8/25 cm
both sides
Lap connection: � 8mm /25 cm both sidestable 10.5.1 hole depth = lb = 15 cm
D = 12 mm
Owing to the � 8mm/25 cm rebars already cast in the wall to be connected, nothing is gained by rebars of larger diameter because the force acting on the connection must be transmitted to thecast-in reinforcement via the overlap.

If the position of the existing reinforcement is not known it is advisable to assume the worst case regardingthe proximity of the nearest cast-in rebar. If this can be e > 4�� = 32mm, the anchorage length must be ac-cordingly increased.
max e = 250/2 =125 mmextension as per 10.3.4.3 lb,inst = 150+(125-32) = 243 mm
Instead of a hole depth of 15 cm, it must be 24 cm to ensure that the forces are transmitted from the connec-tion rebar to the cast-in rebar. It is therefore recommended that the rebar position is measured using the Fer-roscan instrument.
Connections to and extensions of columns etc. can also be designed in the same way as wall connectionsand wall extensions.

This mid-span reinforcement determined by the design calculation and shown in the reinforcement drawingis anchored in the walls using connection rebars having the same diameter and spacing.Therefore, only the minimum anchorage depth is required according to the rules for rebars at supports.

The connection surfaces must be roughened to take up the shear force.
Alternative: Instead of extending the mid-span reinforcement, the minimum required connection force in the support area is determined andanchored. A truss model with an inclination of 45° is assumed
Loading: 3 d away from the support because the tensile force set up before the rebar lap has to be transmitted

as per 3.4.1: � 8mm /14 cm located belowlb,inst = 10 cmRd,inst = 14.6 kN > Zrequ/rebar = 13.7 kN
Using detailed calculation, � 8 mm rebars instead of � 10mm can be used for anchoring. This demontratesthat it is worthwhile to perform a design calculation.

10.5.3 Test results: Full scale beam test
In order to demonstrate that the characteristics of Hilti HIT-HY150 rebarfastenings are similar to cast-in solutions the following test was underta-ken [2]:
A concrete beam (40cmx25cmx475cm) is cut through at one third of itslength. Reinforcement bars of equivalent dimensions (twice � 22 mm be-low and twice � 14 mm on top) are installed alongside the original rein-forcement using Hilti HIT; thus the beam is rejoined.
The beam is then supported at the end points while a test load is appliedat the two third-points (the re-fastened and the original one). Bending ofthe beam is measured below these two points to compare the performan-ce of the reattached side to the original side.
As can be seen on the diagram thereattached side bends in about thesame way as the original side.
The performance of the Hilti HIT fastening indeed con-forms to a cast-in rebar.
The measured bending moment atfailure of this beam (69.18 kNm)corresponds well to the calculatedmoment (68.10 kNm)
