Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
This document, together with EN 1997-1 and EN 1537, form the trinity in which:
— EN 1997-1 defines the design requirements for grouted anchors, including the limits of proof load
and limiting criteria by testing of grouted anchors, which may be specified in the national annex (for
EN 1997-1) or a similar national application document for ISO countries;
— EN 1537 defines the execution of grouted anchors;
— this document defines the testing of grouted anchors.
The document has been structured so that common items are given in Clauses 1 to 7. The different test
specific loading procedures, measurements, checks and presentation of test results for the three test
methods (Test Method 1, 2 and 3) have been placed in three separate clauses. The determination of
the fundamental characteristics: creep rate, load loss, critical creep load and the apparent tendon free
length are not test specific and for this reason these have been placed in Annexes A to D.
Yield stress and tensile strength for typical anchor steels appear in Annex E.
Figures 1 and 2 illustrate the two main types of grouted anchors considered in EN 1537.

Part 5:
Testing of grouted anchors
1 Scope
This document establishes specifications for the execution of tension tests to be carried out on an anchor
grouted in the ground, as defined in EN 1997-1 and EN 1537. Three methods of testing are recognized
by this document. Test Method 1 involves cyclic tension loading with measurement of displacement at
the load stages; Test Method 2 involves cyclic tension loading with measurement of load loss at the load
stages; and Test Method 3 involves step-loading with measurement of displacement under successive
maintained tension loads.
This document provides specifications for the experimental devices, the measurement apparatus, the
test procedures, the definition and presentation of the test results and the content of records.
NOTE This document does not provide specification for the size of the proof load and the limiting criteria.
These aspects reside in EN 1997-1 or its national annex for CEN countries and in similar national application
documents for this test standard for ISO countries.
