Default how strong is resin in masonry ?

I was toying with the idea of drilling a few holes in the top, and
putting pointed railheads in there, but they'd need securing - all I
can think of is resin, but having never used it, just how strong is
the stuff ?

(i.e. would 12mm in epoxy be enough, or should I look to do an inch
minimum ?)

(thinking about it, I really need to move out !)


Just sit the coping on a couple of big blobs of car body filler and
it'll never move again. Just make sure the surfaces are dust free
