What are the two types of masonry anchors?

The two types of masonry anchors are mechanical anchors and adhesive anchors.

1. Mechanical anchors: These anchors are installed by inserting them into pre-drilled holes in the masonry material and then expanding or gripping the sides of the hole to secure the anchor in place. Examples of mechanical anchors include wedge anchors, sleeve anchors, and expansion anchors.

2. Adhesive anchors: These anchors are installed by applying a special adhesive or epoxy to the anchor and then inserting it into a pre-drilled hole in the masonry material. The adhesive cures and bonds the anchor to the masonry, providing a strong and durable connection. Examples of adhesive anchors include chemical anchors and epoxy anchors.

- Single-leg anchors are connected to the masonry by a single leg that is embedded in the masonry.
- Double-leg anchors are connected to the masonry by two legs that are embedded in the masonry.
