adding hilti adhesive anchor in uncured concrete (4 days)
Hello,
What would be your recommendation about adding hilti adhesive anchor in concrete 4 days after pour. These would not be very loaded as they are only to secure the base of a utility transfomer (very heavy) to its concrete slab. At the moment we specify only after 7 days.

Hi Serge,
Hilti has performed additional testing on early age concrete applications. To help with your engineering judgement, please see Hilti’s Early Age Concrete Technical Data which summarizes and evaluates the test results performed with Hilti HIT-RE 500 V3 and Hilti HIT-HY 200 V3 adhesive anchor systems in concrete members prior to the 21-day ACI and CSA requirements, also known as “early age concrete” or “green concrete.”
