ONSITE TESTING FOR REBAR AND ANCHORS

Hilti's onsite tests for post-installed rebar and fastenings

Hilti onsite testing

Onsite testing for rebar and anchors is required when the load capacity of the base material is unknown.

This applies when the base material isn’t covered by ETA guidelines or Hilti technical data — for example, in cases involving old, damaged concrete or rock.

Onsite testing helps determine the design resistance of the base material and ensures the right anchor system is selected for the installation.

It can be done using either a destructive pull-out test or a non-destructive proof load test.

From 1st Aug 2023 onwards, you will need to know the Proof Load and a SO# to schedule onsite testing. Please reach out to your dedicated Hilti account manager for assistance if necessary.

From 14 July 2025 onwards, please access our new booking platform for scheduling of a pull-out test.
