초록

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) has garnered significant attention in the construction industry owing to its superior mechanical performance and aesthetic qualities. Thin UHPC panels have been widely adopted in architectural applications, providing both aesthetic and structural performance. A novel connection method employing embedded anchors with specially designed bottom expansions to secure UHPC panels to supporting structures has been shown to be highly feasible through experimental investigations and numerical simulations. The experimental results highlighted the significant influence of embedment depth on anchor pullout strength, showing that doubling the embedment depth increased the pull-out capacity by approximately 1.85 times, with failure predominantly governed by conical concrete breakout at angles ranging from 22 degrees to 26 degrees. Numerical simulations closely reproduced the load-displacement behavior and failure mechanisms observed in the experimental specimens, thereby confirming their reliability in representing anchorage performance.
