General Engineering and Fasteners Standards Sectional Committee, PGD 37

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the General Engineering and Fasteners Standards Sectional Committee had been approved by the Production
and General Engineering Division Council.
This standard was originally published in 1970. First revision has been made in 1993 and this revision has been
taken up to align the standard with the latest versions of basic standards related to masonry fasteners.
Foundation bolts are designed for use in masonry, concrete foundation and the like. The form of the shank is
optional but compliance is required for the maximum dimensions specified (space requirement dimensions).
The standard specifies property 4.6 for foundation bolts as the bolts are generally used with this property class.
However, due to space constraints, it may be essential to use bolts having property class higher than 4.6 which
shall be subject to agreement between the purchaser and manufacturer.
Following major changes have been made in second revision:
a) Scope have been clearly stated;
b) References have been updated;
c) Shank types D and G have been dropped;
d) The technical supply conditions have been completely revised; and
e) Designation of foundation bolts have been revised.
In preparation of this standard some assistance has been derived from DIN 529 : 2010-09 ‘Masonry and foundation
bolts’ issued by Deutsches Institut fiir Normung (DIN).
The composition of the Committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is given in Annex A.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the final value,
observed or calculated expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2 : 1960
‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )’.
