Design of Anchors Close to an Edge under Shear Loading. Engineering approach for consideration of load direction

An universally valid proposal is made for the design of anchors close to an edge under shear loads for concrete edge failure. The angle of the shear load is taken into account during determination of the load distribution on each anchor of a group. Thus the model may be used for applications without and with hole clearance and for shear loads as well as for torsion moments.
