OBJECTIVE
The objective of this project is to develop recommended standard test methods and specifications, design guidelines and specifications, and quality assurance guidelines and construction specifications for the use of epoxy adhesive anchor systems in transportation structures. Development of these tests, specifications, and guidelines will be founded on the results of a program of experiments to determine, predict, and verify the long-term performance of these systems under sustained load in their different applications and environments.
