What is exactly mechanical anchor in civil engineering?
A mechanical anchor is a load-carrying device that does not depend on glue or resin to support the loads. An example is a simple steel screw fixed into a wooden post to hold up the weight of a picture. However, the term "mechanical anchor" usually refers to a steel device which is fixed into a hole in a concrete beam or slab. The steel anchor resists load by a combination of friction and mechanical interlock with the concrete surface within the hole. The steel anchor contains some mechanism within itself to press the sides of the anchor (which are often toothed) into the concrete.
