Hi Thanks for your question, I'd suggest initial looking for a resin injection or foil capsule that is approved for fixing into the tensile zone i.e. cracked concrete . You will have a number of choices depending upon your anchor spacing, load actions , edge distance, in-service temperature and if there is any fire resistance requirement. If you have access to the Profis Engineering software you can simply model you desired criteria and the software will provide you with the options available.
