Concrete-to-concrete, thermally-insulated, balcony connectors.

Jump to:
+44 (0) 114 275 5224 Website

Application

Suitable for highly energy-efficient structures, heavily-congested or stepped floor slabs, applications where maximum corrosion protection is required and when an integral fire resistance is preferred to the installation of a separate fire protection barrier.

Description

High-performance, thermally-broken connectors for concrete-to-concrete balcony applications.


Each unit consists of non-deformable cage offering high rigidity and dimensional stability. The insulation component comprises Rockwool® mineral wool that offers inherent fire-resistant qualities.


Features and benefits:

  • Inherently fire-resistant mineral wool insulation.
  • Formed from 100% Class A1 non-combustible components.
  • Compression studs reduce rebar congestion and simplify installation.
  • Continuous stainless steel reinforcement maximizes strength, thermal efficiency and corrosion protection.
  • Supplied as a complete unit providing rigidity and dimensional stability.
  • Extensive product line to suit a wide range of applications.
  • Tested by the French CSTB and holds Avis Technique Number 20/11-232.

Reinforcement

Tensile and shear reinforcement consist of 1.4301 or 1.4362 highly corrosion-resistant stainless steel with a minimum characteristic strength Rp0.2 of 500 N/mm². Tensile bars are continuous with no structural welding or point of weakness. Compression studs are manufactured from 12 mm diameter, high-resistance 1.4301 stainless steel bars with hot-forged heads.

In addition to thermal and durability benefits, stainless steel reinforcement reduces concrete cover requirements and can therefore provide additional design efficiencies over carbon steel systems.
