Push pull testing is normally conducted to measure the strength of the fixings are between a typical anchor and concrete.
Calibrated push pull force gauges are used to measure mechanical load testing strengths of the fixings.
Even though materials used for bonding may be different, it is important to note that testing for bonding strength is an universal principle.
Push pull testing and tensile strength testing is normally performed because many factors which counter the proper bonding of materials. The biggest concern is that weaknesses may pass unnoticed especially when inspection is only carried out visually. Some of these factors are: degraded strength of the bonding material caused by low temperature, frost, or when water infiltrates into the joining compound. Another cause of insufficient bonding strength is as a result of smooth side walls.
The entire strength of a whole set of fixings lose in strength so as to loose the integral strength of the structure due to the essential bonding materials being weak. Ultimately, this may result in construction failures leading to disastrous consequences. Push pull testing means early detection of such problems. Because of this, constructors are able to rectify faults. Early fault finding mitigates future higher costs. It also helps to add to the assurance of any fixings overall strength.
Push pull testing can be carried out either on large scale or a smaller intensive scale. Testing always entails maximum design load stress testing planned in construction as stipulated by the standards of the industry. This is not destructive testing so the maximum loads applied as well as the sample size are decided upon by the on-site engineers.
Push Pull Testing is a sampling as a quality assurance measure. If problems have been detected then the Pull Out Testing could be used to rapidly find out the severity of the problem.
Quicker Pull out testing (larger sample testing) may be applied in instances when the financial feasibility of the mass testing is far reaching and faults have been detected.
Pull Out Tests are for strength testing only where the passing of maximum load tolerances are recorded only. The test methods are identical as Push Pull Tests but only the pass or failure is recorded. While the Push Pull Tests can find problems the rapid Pull Out Tests will find out the extent of any identified problems.
