ABSTRACT:
A fixture (structural element) is readily mounted to a surface of a substrate (such as concrete) by embedding and adhering an internally-threaded anchoring element (sleeve) in a hole in the substrate. Preferably, the anchoring element is recessed below the surface of the substrate ("embedded"). To aid in inserting the anchoring element into the hole, an insertion tool may be employed. The system is re-usable, in the sense that the fixture can be removed and replaced, or the fixture can be removed and the hole in the substrate covered. In the latter case, a gauge element may be inserted into the anchoring element prior to sealing over the hole. A template is provided to ascertain the depth that the anchoring element is embedded within the substrate, as determined by the cross-sectional dimension of the gauge element at the surface of the substrate. A wedge-element is also described for fitting to the end of a threaded rod, for forming an anchor stud.
