... 72 This reduced expected failure stress level for short-duration loads appears to result from a dual requirement placed on the polymer. The magnitude of the load causes the polymer to undergo inelastic deformation as it redistributes the load down the anchor, and the sustained nature of the load causes the polymers to migrate within the adhesive.
From page 73...
... 73 Combined SvTTF Baseline Curves Figure 72 to Figure 74 present the individual and combined baseline curves from UF and US for the three adhesives, respectively. Since different anchor diameters and embedment depths were used at the two laboratories, the stresses have all been normalized by the average of the 15 short-term bond stresses (10 at UF and 5 at US)
