Description
We were hired by the mechanical contractor do pull testing on the post installed anchors for their installation. The building was built in 1915 and had an arched cinder-crete/ash-crete ceiling. These types of celings were very common before the 1920’s in NYC. The arches date all the way back to the Roman Empire who realized the arching distributed the load more efficiently. The pull testing was done in accordance with NYC Buildings Department bulletin 2016-005.
