HILTI TECHNICAL BULLETIN - Technical Data for Large Diameter Elements with Hilti HIT-RE 500 V3 Adhesive Anchor System

Nov 1, 2026

Uploaded by McGucket

Hilti Technical Bulletin dated August 28, 2019 provides technical data for large diameter elements using the Hilti HIT-RE 500 V3 adhesive anchoring system. It covers post-installed rebar and threaded rod installations and references design requirements in accordance with ACI 318-14 Chapter 17 and CSA A23.3-14 Annex D. Published results are based on testing per ACI 355.4 and ICC-ES AC308, citing ESR-3814 and Hilti North American Product Technical Guide Volume 2, Edition 17 (PTG Ed. 17). The bulletin includes summarized design parameters in multiple tables, including interpolations for thread rod up to 80 mm, and notes portions excluded from ESR-3814.

HILTI TECHNICAL BULLETIN Date: August 28, 2019 Subject: Technical Data for Large Diameter Elements with Hilti HIT-RE 500 V3 Adhesive Anchor System Hilti HIT-RE 500 V3 adhesive anchoring system can be used for post-installed rebar and threaded rod installations for anchor design in accordance with ACI 318-14 Chapter 17 and CSA A23 .3-14 Annex D. Current published information is based on testing in accordance with ACI 355.4 and ICC-ES AC308 and can be found in ESR-3814 and in section 3.2.4 of the Hilti North American Product Technical Guide Volume 2: Anchor Fastening Technical Guide, Edition 17 (PTG Ed. 17) . The largest element diameter published in ESR-3814 and the PTG Ed. 17 is 1-1/4-inch for threaded rod, \#10 US reinforcing bar (US rebar), and 30M Canadian reinforcing bar (CA rebar) . Hilti has performed additional testing with threaded rod up to 80mm in diameter at 20 times the embedment depth for the tested rod diameter (i.e. 1600mm / 63-in. for the 80mm diameter threaded rod) . The data in the tables below are evaluated per ACI 355.4 and AC 308 , however, the design of these anchors is outside of the scope of ESR-3814. See ESR-3814 and PTG Ed. 17 section 3.2.4 or contact Hilti Technical Services for additional information that may be needed to complete design calculation. The following data will not be included in ESR-3814.

Short term elevated concrete temperatures are those that occur over brief intervals, e.g. , as a result of diurnal cycling. Long term concrete temperatures are roughly constant over significant periods of time. 5 Bond strength values corresponding to concrete compressive strength f'c = 2,500 psi (17 .2 MPa) . For concrete compressive strength, f'c, between 2,500 psi (17 .2 MPa) and 8,000 psi (55 .2 MPa), the tabulated characteristic bond strength may be increased by a factor of (f'c/2,500)0.25 [for SI: (f'c / 17.2)0.25] .
