Bolt design to Eurocode

[graduatequestions]

Does anyone know how to design bolts in concrete to the Eurocode?

I am looking through EN1992 but can't find formula on anchorage bond stress etc, can I just treat it as a reinforcing bar (and use EN 1992-1.1 clause 8.4.2)? I also have to check punching shear which should be ok...

Any help with the first point would be appreciated

There's a series of guides-codes labeled ETAG that relate tho this and akin issues.

see there the endorsed ETAGs and technical reports.

I know the Hilti software is written to Eurocode because it raised some debate in our office because we don't design our chemical anchors to Eurocode, however I'm sure the building code board would allow it seeing that it applies sound engineering principles. You should download some epoxy fastening technical data from their website, it might have some insight of designing anchors to Eurocode.
