The aim of this survey is to develop an understanding of how engineers currently design steel to concrete connections using post installed anchors (mechanical or bonded) and the interaction between the different elements around it (base material, concrete, steel plate, anchors and stiffeners). New Civil Engineer wants to analyse how engineers make use of different resources to assess the connection as a whole to deliver a workable and sustainable solution.
