In construction there are several situations where there is the need to transfer concentrated loads between elements of composite structures of steel and concrete, where it is common to use steel connectors. When connectors are required to tensile loads, the tensile strength can be considered a critical project. In this work were made two series of pull-out tests of anchors installed on reinforced concrete beams, a total of 16 trials. The first series of tests evaluated the influence of concrete cracking level on the pull-out strength of connectors, where the variables were effective embedment depth of connector (hef) with 60 mm and 110 mm, and the flexural reinforcement ratio of specimens (rf) ranging from 0,33% to 3,21%, the latter being the parameter which controlled the cracking level of the concrete specimens. The second series of tests evaluated the influence of the anchor reinforcement on the pull-out strength, where the variables were the diameter and spacing of the anchor reinforcement. The hef and rf remained constant values of 110 mm and 0,51%, respectively. Were also analyzed some theoretical models that predict the connector pull-out strength with and without anchor reinforcement. In the 1st series of tests, it was found that the level of cracking concrete, it has considerable influence on the pull-out strength of steel connectors, where the loss of pull-out strength is proportional to the cracking level of concrete. In the 2nd series of tests, it was observed that, connectors with anchor reinforcement, showed a gain of up to 320% on the load capacity of the connector. In the analysis of theoretical models that predict the tensile strength of connectors installed in uncracked concrete, the ACI 318 (2014), FIB BULLETIN 58 (2011) e EOTA/ETAG 001 (2010), showed better performances. For connectors with anchor reinforcement, the INFASO (2012) obtained better results with more accurate values and considerably less dispersed.
