13、ally and the displacement of the bolt head ismeasured concurrently.The bolt is pulled until the anchorsystem or rock fails.The ultimate and working capacities of thebolt are calculated from the plot of load versus displacement.1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D18 on Soil
