The paper presents a new model for predicting the resistance of anchorages with supplementary reinforcement loaded in shear toward and perpendicular to the edge in case of reinforcement failure. The model is based on the evaluation of the results of a comprehensive test program performed on anchorages with multiple anchor rows and supplementary reinforcement, reported in an earlier paper. It is shown that the existing models available in the codes and standards are conservative for low to medium amounts of supplementary reinforcement but tend to be unconservative for high amounts of reinforcement. The new model is able to predict the failure loads corresponding to reinforcement failure under shear loads very well. The approach to incorporate other failure modes into the design model for anchorages with supplementary reinforcement under shear loads toward the edge will be presented in another paper.

It was shown that the failure load for concrete edge failure of the anchorages with multiple anchor rows loaded in shear toward the edge can be significantly increased by using supplementary reinforcement in the form of stirrups and edge reinforcement. In case of anchorages with supplementary reinforcement, once the concrete cracks, the stirrups get activated and provide resistance to the applied shear loads until reinforcement yielding or bond failure occurs or hook (node) of the supplementary reinforcement fails. Thus, the shear strength of anchorage can be increased by increasing the amount of supplementary reinforcement. However, this increase in the shear capacity is capped by the strut (compression) failure of concrete. In current standards, such as EN1992-4, 2 ACI 318, 3 and fib bulletin 58, 4 the strut failure is neglected and a very conservative approach is given to consider stirrup yielding and node failure.In this paper, test results and observations are evaluated in detail and compared with the existing model given in EN1992-4 2 and the model proposed by Schmid 5 for anchorages with supplementary reinforcement loaded in shear toward the edge. Based on the detailed evaluation of test results, a new model is proposed for predicting the concrete edge failure loads for anchorages with supplementary reinforcement undergoing reinforcement failure by modifying the model proposed by Schmid. 5 It is shown that with the proposed model, the failure loads for the low to medium amount of reinforcement (where reinforcement failure dominates) can be predicted very well.For high amounts of reinforcement, it is possible that the concrete strut failure limits the failure load prior to reinforcement yielding. To consider this, an approach to
