Anchoring to a reinforced concrete pedestal
14. 10. 2025
Cast-in-place washer plate anchors are embedded in fresh concrete with a steel rod and welded plate. They transfer tension through plate bearing and shear via the rod. In this case, shear is transferred via a shear lug.
This model in the IDEA StatiCa Detail 3D represents anchoring to a reinforced concrete pedestal integral with the foundation block. These are anchors placed in concrete before casting, typically consisting of:
- A steel rod or rebar (often with a thread at the end).
- A washer plate (steel plate) welded or fixed to the rod’s end,
which acts as a mechanical anchorage to transfer tension forces into the concrete.
Advantages
- Strong load transfer in tension and shear
- Can handle heavy and dynamic loads
- Integrated into concrete—no post-installation drilling
- Precise positioning before casting
- Reduced risk of corrosion at embedment if properly covered
Limitations
- ️Must be placed accurately before the concrete pour
- ️Difficult to adjust the position afterward
- ️Requires sufficient concrete cover to prevent splitting
- ️Not ideal for retrofit applications
- ️Quality depends on the weld and bar fabrication
