AbstractFastenings in concrete are widely applicable in construction. A significant benefit of fastening technology lies in the fact that it can adapt to various geometries and construction sequences. As a result, the need to design and realize a fastening in structural elements with unconventional geometric configurations can be encountered. Existing design standards rely on the concrete capacity design (CCD) method for concrete‐related failures, which typically covers detailing situations with rectangular configurations of the fastenings and the concrete members. However, the lack of guidelines for a wider range of applications may lead to over‐conservative dimensioning or design constraints. This study investigates the influence of beveled concrete edges on the load‐bearing behavior of anchors. As part of the research, a series of experiments and numerical simulations were conducted. The results derived from the investigations are used to develop an analytical concept that extends the area of applicability of the CCD method and can be used for reliable dimensioning of fastenings close to non‐rectangular concrete edges and geometrical boundaries.
