Dear Partner,
Our company motto states that we produce the best possible
benefits with the best problem solutions and support our part-
ners in being successful in their competitive environment.
Thats not just on paper. It is much more the case that a
number of facts give evidence that we take our problem
solv ing claim very seriously:
1,300 inventions in the area of fastening technology
More European approvals than any other manufacturer
In-house production, both in the chemical area as well as
with steel and plastic fastenings
An easy-to-use solution for each fastening problem
True added value by extensive service (consulting at the
construction site and on the phone, dimensioning software,
technical manual, fischer Academy, Fastening Centre)
The new fastening catalogue that you have is part of this
service offering. It offers you an overview of our products and
services and of systems and contact people.
In this way, we want to support your work as a professional
and do-it-yourselfer and offer you the best possible benefits in
the sense of our motto.

BASIC KNOWLEDGE
1. General Fundamentals
BUILDING MATERIAL
The substrate and its quality is decisive for selection of the fixing: the building material and anchor
base. A differentiation is made between concrete, masonry and panel building mate rials.
Concrete is a building material containing cement, which can be divided into two sub-categories:
standard concrete and lightweight concrete. While standard concrete contains gravel, lightweight
concrete comprises additives like pumice, expanded clay or Styropore, usually with lower compres-
sive strength. Because of this, among other things unfavourable conditions occur for anchoring
fixings.
The magnitude of the bearing force of a heavy-load fixing depends, among other things, on the
compressive strength of the concrete. This is indicated by the numbers in the short designa tions:
e.g. the most frequently occurring concrete strength C 20/25 has a compressive strength of 25
N/mm when a sample 150 mm cube is crushed in a test machine.
Masonry building materials Masonry is a composite of blocks and mortar. The compressive strength of
the blocks is usually higher than that of the mortar, especially in old buildings. Therefore, as much
as possible, fixings should be anchored in the masonry block.
Generally, four groups of masonry blocks are differentiated:
Solid blocks with dense structure are building materials that are very resistant to compressive loads with-
out cavities or with only a low percentage of hole surfaces (up to max. 15 %, e.g. as grip-hole). They
are very well suited for anchoring fixings.
Perforated blocks with a compact structure (perforated and hollow checker bricks) These are mostly manufac-
tured from the same compressive strength materials as the solid blocks but are provided with cavi-
ties. If higher loads are introduced into these building materials, special fixings should be used, e.g.
those which bridge or fill out the cavities.
Solid blocks with porous structure usually have a very large number of pores and low compressive
strength. Therefore, special fixings should be used for optimal fastening, e.g. fixings with long
expansion zone and fixings that engage with the material.
Perforated blocks with porous structure (light perforated bricks) have many cavities and pores and thus usu-
ally low compressive strength. In this case, special care is needed in selection and installation of the
correct fixing. Suitable fixings include those with a long expansion zone or injection anchors with a
form locking anchorage especially with light concrete hollow blocks, with cavities that can be filled
with polystyrene.
Panel building materials are thin-walled construction materials that frequently have only low strength
e.g. plasterboard panels like Rigips, Knauf, LaGyp, Norgips; gypsum fibreboard like Ferma-
cell or Rigicell or chipboard, hard particle board, plywood, etc. For optimum fastening, special
fixings have to be selected: cavity fixings as they are called. These are fixings of plastic or metal and
expand on the reverse side fixings engaging with form locking that can anchor directly on the
reverse side of the panel in the cavity.

DRILLING
The building material is critical for drilling - four methods
are available:
Rotary drilling: Drilling in rotation without impact for perfo-
rated blocks and construction materials with low strength so that
the hole does not become too large and/or the webs in the per-
forated blocks dont break.
Impact drilling: Rotation and a high number of light impacts with
the impact drilling machine, for solid building materials with
dense structure.
Hammer drilling: Rotation and a small number of impacts with high
impact energy with the drilling hammer, also for solid building
materials with dense structure.
Diamond or core drilling process: Mainly used for larger hole diameters
or with greater reinforcement.
One more tip on drilling without impact: Carbide drill bits drill faster if
they are ground sharp, similar to steel drill bits. There are also special
masonry drill bits available.
INSTALLATION
Generally, the following aspects have to be considered during installation:
The edge distance and axial spacing, as well as the component thickness and width, must be complied
with properly if the fixing is to hold the required load. Otherwise splitting/spalling of the construc-
tion material or cracks may occur. Generally, for plastic fixings, a required edge distance 2 x h
ef
(h
ef
= effect. anchorage depth) and a required axial spacing 4 x h
ef
are usual. If the expansion direc-
tion of the fixing runs parallel to the component, the edge distance can be reduced to 1 x h
ef
.
The hole depth must with only a few exceptions be larger than the anchoring depth:
that is for example because function safety is only ensured if the screw has enough room to project
beyond the tip of the plastic fixing. The respective hole depths are indicated for all products in the
product tables on the following pages.
Hole cleaning after drilling, by blowing out or suction, is indispensable. A hole that is not cleaned redu-
ces the holding forces. The drilling dust has a negative effect on proper functioning of the fixing in
the hole.

THE INSTALLATION TYPES
Differentiate between three different methods:
1. Pre-positioned installation: in this case, the fixing is usually flush with the construction surface.
The installation sequence:
.
Transfer hole pattern of the object to be mounted to the anchor base,
.
Drill, clean holes, set fixing and screw on item to be attached.
2. Push-through installation is especially recommended to simplify installation in standard production
installations or for items to be mounted with two or more fastening points:
.
The holes in the item to be mounted can be used as a drilling template, since their hole diameters
are at least as large as the drill diameter in the construction material.
.
In addition to simplifying installation, a good fit of the fixing holes is achieved.
.
The fixing is inserted into the hole through the item to be mounted and then expanded.
.
For frame fixings and use of a washer, the fixing is inserted through the washer to the rim of the
fixing.
3. Stand-off installation is used to fasten items to be mounted at a specific distance from the anchor
base with compressive and tensile strength. To do this, usually metal anchors with metric internal
threads are used that can hold screws or threaded rods with lock nuts.
Useful length and anchoring depth: in addition to the type of installation, the useful length and anchoring
depth of the respective fixing have to be considered during installation:
The useful length d
a
(clamping thickness) of the fixing and/or the screw should correspond to the
thickness of the item to be mounted. On anchors with internal threads, this can be varied by se lec-
tion of the screw length. However, in pass-through installation and with bolt anchors, the maximum
useful length is specified by the fixing. Because of their two different approved anchoring depths,
bolt anchors from fischer (e.g. FBN) offer a larger variety of useful lengths.
If the anchor base is covered with plaster or insulating material, screws or fixings must be selected
with a useful length that corresponds at least to the plaster thickness, plus the thickness of the item
to be mount ed.
The anchorage depth h
ef
corresponds, for plastic and steel fixings, to the distance between the upper
edge of the load bearing component to the lower edge of the expansion part and for chemical
anchors to the lower end of the threaded rod.
LOADING
Not only the construction material and the type of installation are important for selection of the
fixing, but also the loading to which it is exposed: how great is the force ? In what direction does it
act ? And where is it applied ? Accordingly, forces are determined according to: magnitude, direc-
tion and point of application. The forces are specified in kN (kilonewton 1 kN 100 kg), the bend-
ing moments in Nm (Newton meters).

The following loads are especially relevant for selection of the correct fixing:
Ultimate loads, i.e. those loads that lead either to a failure of the anchor base or a failure
or pulling out of the fixing. Their average values result from at least 5 individual tests.
Characteristic loads designate those loads that are reached or exceeded in 95 % of all tests
(5 % fractile).
Permissible loads are working loads that already include an appropriate material and installation
safety factor according to approval decisions by ETA e. g.. These apply only if the approval
conditions are complied with.
Recommended loads or maximum working loads include an adequate load safety factor.
The calculation of the maximum working load from the failure loads and/or the characteristic loads
are carried out by dividing the respective failure loads by a safety factor:
Max. working load =
Failure load (F)
Safety factor ()
Recommended safety factor
compared to the average failure load:
steel and bonded anchors 4
plastic fixings 7
compared to the characteristic failure loads:
steel and bonded anchors 3
plastic fixings 5
Example of a steel fixing with a failure load of 40 kN:
F
Gebr.
= 40 kN/4 = 10 kN

These safety factors are standard recommendations and are only to be
used for fixings if nothing different is indicated in the tables of this catalogue. With approved
fixings, the safety factor can be decreased to = 2.52 by using many test series: this means that
the utilisation can be optimised with the use of approved fixings.
PRINCIPLES OF FUNCTION
There are different bearing mechanisms that transfer the forces that act on the fixing into the
base material.
With frictional connection the expansion part of the fixing is
pressed against the hole wall: the outer tensile loads are
held by friction.
With form locking, the fixing geometry matches the
shape of the substrate and/or of the drill hole.
With adhesive bond the mortar adheres the fixing with
the anchor base.

FAILURE MODES
With excess stress, incorrect installation or a substrate with inadequate load bearing capacity, the
follow ing failure modes can occur:
Fracture of the anchor base due to
.
tensile load N or shear load V too high
.
inadequate strength of anchor base
.
setting depth too low
Component splits due to
.
component dimensions too small
.
deviation from the specified edge and axial spacings
.
expansion pressure too high
Fixing pulls out due to
.
failure of the frictional or bonded connection due to
high load or incorrect installation
Steel fracture due to
.
fixing and/or steel strength too low for the applied load

CRACKS IN CONCRETE COMPONENTS
Cracks can occur anywhere in concrete at any time: factors involved in this are loads like dead load,
traffic or wind loads, shrinkage and creeping of the concrete or external influences like earthquakes
or ground motions that result in tensions, deformations and thus crack formation.
Example: in a bridge, bending occurs due to pressure forces applied to the bridge deck. A com-
pressive zone will occur at the top of the bridge deck, while tensile forces and strains will occur in
the lower part of the bridge deck. However, concrete is not able to bear noticeable tensile forces,
but steel bars (reinforcement) can. However, while steel bars are capable of bearing these tensile
stresses, the elongate as they do so. This doesn't affect the steel but will cause innumerable cracks
hardly visible to the naked eye form in the concrete (permissible width up to 0.4 mm). This is called
the cracked tensile zone.

FIXINGS SUITABLE FOR CRACKS
With anchorings in concrete, it is almost always assumed that cracks are present in the ancho-
ring area that influence the bearing capacity of the fixings. However it is very complicated, if not
impossible, to prove whether the concrete is cracked or non-cracked. For safety reasons, the use
of fixings suitable for cracks is basically recommended to designers and tradesmen. Fixings with
the so-called CC approval from the DIBt and/or with approval according to ETAG 001 for cracked
concrete (see Section 5) have proven their suitability in cracks and can thus be used without restric-
tion in the tensile and compressive zones of the concrete. Special fixings suitable for cracks are the
following:
Fixings acting with mechanical interlock like ZYKON anchors that are used in undercut holes. These
anchors have a conical part that optimally engage even with a continuing crack or under shock
load.
Expanding fixings like anchor bolts or chemical anchors, which automatically adapt to the hole expan-
ded by crack formation in that their cone is pulled deeper into the expansion part and the expansi-
on diameter thereby increases. These fixings are also suitable for absorbing shock loads. The first
approved plastic fixing for cracked concrete - the fischer long-shaft fixing SXS - represents a special
case.


2. Fire Protection
FIRE PROTECTION MEASURES
In Germany, the procedure for construction and operational fire protection are specified by the Fire
protection standard DIN 4102, the Model Building Ordinance (MBO), Regional Construction Ordi-
nances (LBO) and various trade-specific regulations from professional associations.
Thus the following applies, according to Parts 1 and 2 of DIN 4102:
Building materials like concrete, wood, stone, metal, etc. are divided into flammable or non-flam-
mable building material classes according to their behaviour.
In contrast, structural members consist of different combustible and non-combustible building
materials. They are not divided into fire classes, rather they are evaluated as a whole according to
their fire resistance duration.
The fire resistance duration F is indicated in minutes and classified according to two
categories:
Fire inhibiting are components with a fire resistance duration of F30 and F60.
Fire resistant, on the other hand, are all components with a fire resistance of F90,
F120 and F180.
Tested systems like cable, ventilation or utility systems are tested not only for fire
resistance, but also for function capability in the case of the first (e.g. supply lines to
sprinkler systems). The fire resistance duration of these systems is specified with e.g.
E30 to E120 for electrical cable systems and/or with L30 to L120 for ventilation
lines. The fixings that are used to anchor these systems must have at least the same
fire resistance duration.
The standard temperature-time curve (ETK) of DIN 4102 and ISO 834 is based on
a simulation of actual fire conditions and forms the evaluation basis that is valid
worldwide for determination of the fire resistance duration. Besides that, there are
other temperature curves for special fire exposures, e.g. the hydrocarbon curve for
fire causing with combustible liquids or the RAB/ZTV tunnel
curve (Germany) and/or the Rijkswaterstaat tunnel curve (Netherlands), which
describe tunnel fires.
FZA FAZ
FHB II SXS
Fire protection will prevent fires
or, in the case of a fire, minimise
the consequences. The burning
behaviour of building materials and
components is decisive for this. The
longer they resist fire, the longer
escape routes remain open and the
more time people have to seek shel-
ter. Fixings and anchors play a role
that is just as important as all the
other construction elements.

FIRE PROTECTION IN FASTENING TECHNOLOGY
Fastening technology is of critical importance in fire protection: for example in order to secure the
functionality and structural stability of railings, utility systems or ceiling elements.
The identification and classification of anchors and fixings consists of indication of the respective
fire resistance duration e.g. F90. Before introduction of characteristic load values for fixings by
the DIBt, the fire resistance duration was not regulated by the building authority approvals, but by
fire expert opinions from tests.
The safety concepts measure the failure load in the case of a fire by setting up a so-called factor.
Different safety concepts were applied in the building authority approvals and the fire expert
opinions. Because of this, it was possible that the loads in the fire expert opinions determined in
tests have been larger than the permissible loads given in the approvals. Naturally, in these cases,
only the maximum loads according to the building authority approval are valid. In the mean time,
a new evaluation document from the DIBt [German Institute of Construction Engineering] has
been used for determining the characteristic load values and the corresponding fire resistance
duration. These new building authority approvals represent a design basis that can be tracked. All
old approvals will be converted to this new procedural method within a short time.
Test results according to DIN 4102 have shown that e.g. approved frame fixings of polyamide
(nylon) with galvanised screws are more fire resistant for faade fastenings than the suspended
faade and the anchor base itself: the expansion part of the plastic fixing sleeve that is anchored
in the building material remains fire-resistant for at least 90 minutes in the faade fastening.
You can get more information regarding fire protection in fastening technology in the
fischer Fire Protection Brochure or from our local subsidiary, contact see page 20 and 21 in
these catalogue.
3. Corrosion
DEVELOPMENT OF CORROSION
Corrosion is a chemical reaction in which metal is decomposed. The less noble the metal (elec-
trochemical potential), the more intense is the material damage. In this process it is either con-
verted into flaking rust or worn away in places. Different appearance patterns are differentiated
here. The most frequent types of corrosion in fixings and anchors include:
Surface corrosion: In this case, the metal corrodes relatively uniformly over the entire surface or
over a part of the surface. An example of this is the invisible rusting due to condensation of a
screw in the transition area from anchor plate to hole. The result: the connection that appears
completely intact from the outside fails abruptly.
Contact corrosion: If metals with a different nobility contact each other in a conductive medium, the
less noble metal always corrodes (the anode). As a consequence, stainless steel is usually not en-
dangered. What is decisive is the surface ratios of the two types of metal: the greater the surface
area of the most noble metal in comparison to the less noble, the greater the corrosion becomes.
For example, if large stainless steel sheets are screwed with galvanised screws, the screws will
be highly attacked within a very short time. In contrast, using stainless steel screws for galva-
nised sheets is not critical.
Stress corrosion cracking: If internal or external tensile stresses occur, there can be strain and corrosi-
on of the metal. In this process, a crack develops due to mechanical stresses, which grows under
increasing loads and thus prepares a path for progressive corrosion. For example, it occurs with
A4 steel in an atmosphere containing chlorine (indoor swimming pools, etc.). Generally stress
corrosion cracking is not visible with fixings and usually leads to sudden failure of the anchoring.
In 1985, the suspended concrete ceiling of an indoor
swimming pool broke in Uster, Switzerland. The ceiling
attachments of stainless steel exhibited no external
defects whatsoever, but inside were completely
destroyed in some cases due to stress corrosion cracking.
Example of trans-crystalline stress corrosion cracking on
stainless steel 1.4401 with high chloride concentration.

CORROSION PROTECTION
There are different methods for protecting fastenings from corrosion.
The most important include:
Galvanising is the most frequently used corrosion protection for metal fixings of low zinc steel. It
consists of a metallic coating with layer thicknesses between 5 m and 10 m. The galvanising
is carried out either with blue passivating that gives the anchor a silvery appearance or yellow
chromated. Since the galvanising is worn off over time, it only offers adequate corrosion protec-
tion in dry interior rooms.
Fixings of stainless steel A4 (material no. 1.4401 or 1.4571) are suitable for fastenings in damp
rooms, in open air, in industrial atmospheres or near the sea (but not directly in sea water). These
steels are alloys with a chrome content of at least 12% that forms a passive layer on the steel
surface that protects against corrosion.
Fixings of special alloys (e.g. steel, material no. 1.4529) are used in especially aggressive environ-
ments like atmospheres containing chlorine, in road tunnels or with direct sea water contact.
In this case, the chrome content of normal stainless steels drops below 12%. The protective
passive layer disappears and the anchor becomes susceptible to corrosion. On the other hand,
the special alloys are very corrosion resistant in these highly aggressive media, due to their rela-
tively high percentage of molybdenum. With an alloy percentage of 50%, they clearly surpass
the usual unalloyed, low alloyed or high alloyed steels with maximum 30% alloy percentages.
This means the steel 1.4529 alloyed with chrome, molybdenum and nickel has an alloy percen-
tage of 58%. The rest consists of iron and carbon. Because of this high percentage of expensive
alloy additives, the manufacturing of these steel types are correspondingly costly.
4. Dynamics
The general building authority approvals by the German Institute of Construction Engineering in
Berlin (DIBt) and the European technical approvals (ETA) are generally exclusively for anchoring
of predominantly static loads. However, in contrast to these current permits, in practice a number
of dynamic effects occur, e.g. increasing and alternating stresses in swinging cranes, crane rails,
guide rails in elevator construction, machines, industrial robots and blast fans in tunnel construc-
tion. This also includes anchorings for components susceptible to vibration like antennas and
masts.

It is generally true that the anchoring of components with more than 10.000 load cycles has
to be carried out with fixings, which are tested and approved for this. The regular, sub-sequent
anchoring of these dynamically loaded items to be mounted still caused the planning engineer
big problems, even recently. Generally, the approvals for fixings only apply for anchoring of pre-
dominantly static loads. The path through expert opinions and approvals for individual cases
was difficult and tedious. Besides that, higher costs than necessary often occurred due to the
general planning uncertainty, since the anchors were often oversized. That has now become
simpler.

The bonded anchors fischer Highbond anchor FHB dyn and Upat UMV multicone dyn are appro-
ved for dynamic loads. The approvals apply to anchoring of dynamic loads with unlimited num-
bers of load cycles, for tension and for shear loads. In addition, the FHB dyn is manufactured in
anchor size M16 of highly corrosion-resistant steel, material no. 1.4529. Test have shown that
this material - in contrast to the usual standard stainless steel types in the fastening industry
(material nos. 1.4401 and 1.4571) is suitable not only for use in humid interior spaces and out-
side, but also for holding dynamic loads.
The shock load is a special dynamic stress case. fischer fixings with shock approval are specially
marked in the catalogue
You can get more information regarding dynamics and anchor determination from our local sub-
sidiary, contact see page 20 and 21 in these catalogue.
5. Approvals
LEGAL BASIS
The European Union (EU) essentially determines the legal foundations for the approval of build-
ing products in Europe. It pursues the goal of making the European Common Market a reality for
all products, thus also for building products.
For this purpose, the Directive 89/106/EWG of the Council for Aligning the Legal and Adminis-
trative Specifications of the Member States Regarding Building Products (BPR) was issued. This
directive is implement with the regulation regarding the marketing of and free trade with building
products.
The important requirements of buildings in the sense of the BPR include:
1. Mechanical strength and stability
2. Fire protection
3. Hygiene, health and environmental protection
4. Safety in use
5. Sound protection
6. Energy savings and heat protection
On the basis of the BPR, standards and guidelines will be issued as basic documents that regu-
late the approval of building products. The very first basic document that was developed in this
context is the Guidelines for European Technical Approval (ETAG) for Metal anchors for use in
concrete, ETAG 001.
European standards have no special importance in connection with the BPR. A building product
can only be brought onto the market and freely traded if it is useful, i.e. have proven conformity
with the important requirements and therefore the CE mark is applied. Usability and conformity
will generally be proven by compliance with coordinated and/or recognized standards. If corres-
ponding standards are not available, the proof will be given by a European technical approval
(ETA). An important advantage is that products with an ETA and/or a CE mark can be freely
traded in the EU.

(See bulletin on the Directive regarding building products of the Bavarian Ministry for
Commerce, Traffic and Technology)
In addition, evidence can be provided with a national approval, e.g. in Germany with a general
building authority approval. Among other things, the Regional Construction Ordinances are the
basis for this. They require that systems and facilities are to be assembled, erected or modified so
that public safety and order is not endangered and especially life, health or the natural basis of
existence. Fixings that connect components play an important role in compliance with these
requirements.

However, the national approvals are being replaced more and more by European technical approvals
(ETA), which are recognized in all EU member states. European approvals are issued by the mem-
bers of the EOTA [European Organisation for Technical Approvals], e.g. the German Association of
Construction Engineering (DIBt). The DIBt also issues the German approvals. In a coexistence phase,
European and national approvals will remain valid.
APPROVAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR FIXINGS
Current, according to the above-mentioned ETAG 001, Parts 16, approvals for metal fixings in
concrete are possible for:
.
Torque-controlled expansion anchors
.
Undercut anchors
.
Deformation-controlled expansion anchors
.
Bonded anchors
.
Anchors for multiple use for non-structural applications
The European approvals resulting from this, as well as the CC approvals of the DIBt still only
contain characteristic values for the respective fixing type. CC means Concrete Capacity and
indicates the performance of the concrete. Using the design resistance guidelines (ETAG 001,
Annex C) and the characteristic values for the load bearing capacity of the respective fixing type,
it is possible to design any anchoring. Three design methods (A, B and C) are available
depending on the respective fixing type.
ETAG 001 divides possible approvals of metal fixings into 12 options (see Table, page 12). Op-
tions 16 are for use in cracked and non-cracked concrete, options 712 are only for use in
non-cracked concrete. Approvals according to Option 1 gives the most flexibility of the fixing
connections, those according to option 12 are most restricted. That means fixings with approvals
according to option 1 are of the highest value and the value according to option 12 is the lowest.
It is possible to optimally utilise anchorings because of the type and manner of design and the
division of the approvals into different options.
DESIGN OF FIXINGS
According to ETAG 001, the effort for designing of anchorings by designers and users is
relatively high, since evidence has to be given of various failure modes.
The design method in ETAG 001 is based on the CC method of the DIBt from the year 1993. It is
based on the concept of partial safety factors.
With the method A already mentioned above, the characteristics resistances depend on the load
direction and take into consideration all conceivable failure modes (see Failure Mode Fundamen-
tals chapter).
With method B, a characteristic resistance is assumed to be independent of the load direction
and the influence of reduced edge distances and spacings are taken into consideration with fac-
tors. In principle, this method corresponds to the older (Kappa)-method of metal anchors.
With method C also one characteristic resistance is given. This characteristic resistance is valid
for all load directions and predetermined edge distances and spacings which cannot be reduced.
Method C correspond to the older design methods for steel expansion anchors in non-cracked
concrete.
For daily use and for evidence of fixings, fischer has developed a simple, fast and effective design
software: CC Compufix. The software makes it possible for designers and users to calcu-late
fixing connections and fixing multiple dimensioning using a convenient input. An easy-to-read
status line continuously shows the used capacity of the fixing, which significantly simplifies the
selection of the technically and economically correct fastening system.
