Channel and Bolt FixingsThere are various methods of fixing stainless steel masonry supports, restraints and windposts to either concrete or steel frames. The selection of the most appropriate method will depend on many factors including fixing centres, edge distances, type of fixture, loading and the site adjustment required.

Channel and Bolt Fixings

Cast-in ChannelsCast-in Channels range from simple self-anchoring slots for accepting restraint fixings to large capacity channels with integral anchors (pages 8-10). They provide the necessary adjustment required when fixing to concrete and can eliminate site drilling. Nail holes aid the fixing of channels to timber formwork and an infill prevents the ingress of concrete during casting.

Cast-in fixings do not generate expansive forces in the concrete and can be used at close centres and closer to the edges than expansion fixings.

OmegaPatent No: 2249110The Omega 21/18 Channel is a self-anchoring channel for use with Ancon wall ties referenced _ _21. The shallow depth of 18mm allows the channel to be used where there is reduced cover to the reinforcement. Nail holes aid the fixing of the channel to timber formwork. If steel formwork is to be used, or the formwork is to be surface-vibrated, please seek advice from our Technical Services Team.

30/20Patent No: EP0882164BAncon 30/20 is a high performance channel. Its unique shape allows the applied load to be fed directly from the channel lips to the anchors and the more compact section size improves its fit between reinforcement. Specially designed T-head bolts ride up the sloping sides of the channel and securely lock behind the front lips. This channel also accepts standard 20mm wide wall ties. 30/20 is filled with continuously extruded closed-cell PE-LD foam. This material is removed easily in long sections and is 100% recyclable.

Ancon 30/20 should be used in preference to 38/17 channel. 30/20 is a high performance channel and its lower material content offers considerable cost benefits.

AnconLockAnconLock has teeth cut into the returned lips of the channel. The ‘T’ head bolts used to fix to this channel have a matching serrated surface on the underside of the head which provides a high resistance to slip under shear load along the line of the channel.

Surface-Fixed Channels Plain-backed channels can be surface-fixed to steel, concrete and in some instances, masonry (page 11).

25/14Ancon 25/14 accepts Ancon _ _ 25 wall ties and has been designed to tie masonry cladding to steel frames, including light section steel studwork. It is fixed to the steel at 450mm vertical centres with self-drilling screws (page 19). The channel is supplied with pre-punched holes at close centres to allow cutting on site and has a 16mm opening to accommodate a drive socket for the fixing screws. More information on this system, including wall tie spacing, is available in the Ancon Wall Ties and Restraint Fixings brochure.

Bolt FixingsExpansion BoltsThe range consists of Single Expansion Bolts and High Performance Bolts. The latter have double expansion clips that reduce axial and edge spacings and will achieve high performance even in cracked concrete (pages 14-15).

Bonded AnchorsThese fixings create a strong chemical bond between the anchor and the host material. Resin is supplied in either ready-mixed capsules or mixed on application from a cartridge (pages 16-17).

Fixings for SteelworkThe Ancon Steelgrip simplifies the fixing of support systems to hollow steel sections where access is only available from one side (page 18). Stainless steel set screws and self-drilling screws are also available (page 19).

Cast-in SocketsSockets enable fixing to concrete where adjustment is either unnecessary or can be provided elsewhere (page 20).

Plug and screw fixings, and anchors for fixing to hollow core concrete slabs, complete the range (page 20).

The table below shows channel lengths, availability and, where appropriate, the ‘T’ bolt required.

Fixing to ChannelsFixing to channels is by ‘T’ head bolts. These are inserted into the channel and turned through 90°. The bolt must then be tightened to the correct torque. Tapped plate washers can be used as an alternative to ‘T’ bolts where non-standard bolt lengths or diameters are required.

Restraint FixingsAncon wall ties can be used with 25/14, 28/15, 30/20, 38/17 and 36/8 channels in order to provide the necessary restraint to an outer leaf of masonry.

Cast-in ChannelsAllowable Channel LoadsThe allowable loads are based on channels with standard anchors (page 10), cast into concrete with a strength of 30MPa. The allowable loads will ensure a minimum factor of safety of 3 against failure.

Longitudinal loads are achieved by friction using fully-tightened stainless steel or grade 4.6 bolts. Higher longitudinal loads can be achieved by using higher strength bolts at an increased torque. AnconLock toothed channel should be used for most applications involving longitudinal loads.

Channel LugsChannels are supplied with either integral double crimped lugs or single welded ‘L’ lugs, depending on the size of the channel. ‘Bull Horn’ lugs are welded at 90° to the line of the channel and can be specified as an alternative to the standard double crimped lugs.

Ancon 30/20 Channel

Channel InfillAll Ancon channels are supplied filled to help stop the ingress of concrete during casting. Expanded polystyrene is supplied in most channels. Ancon 30/20 is filled with continuously extruded closed-cell PE-LD foam. This material is removed easily in long sections and is 100% recyclable.


v

Surface-Fixed ChannelsIn addition to the plain-backed 36/8 and 25/14, most Ancon channels can be supplied without the anchor lugs for surface fixing to concrete, steelwork and other materials. The allowable load will depend on the fixing centres, the type of fixing and the base material.

Allowable LoadsThe allowable loads for surface-fixed channels in the table below assume partial fixity (M=WL/6) and are limited by either a maximum stress of 160MPa or a deflection of span/325.

Allowable loads for other spans and/or different end fixity can be calculated using the section properties shown below.

Surface-Fixed Channels Channels are supplied plain-backed for surface fixing to either concrete or steelwork. When bolting channel to concrete or steelwork it is important to utilise all fixing holes (except with 25/14 channels), incorporating the square washer provided and ensuring its correct orientation to achieve the allowable loads. Bolt and washer specifications are shown and bolts should be installed following the guides on page 14 and 15.

25/14 Channel should be fixed to steelwork at 450mm vertical centres with self-drilling screws.

Welded FabricationsWhere channels with welded anchors are cut on site, it is important to ensure that there is a whole anchor within 50mm from the end of the channel.

Where horizontal cast-in channel is used in conjunction with brickwork support systems, all external corners must incorporate a Welded Corner Fabrication. Release oil must not be applied to either the channel or the anchor.

Minimum Edge DistanceCare should be taken to ensure that the dimensions from the centre of the channel to the edges of the concrete are not less than the minimum edge distance shown on page 9. The channel must be lined and levelled correctly. In every situation, care must be taken to ensure a good fit is obtained between the face of the channel and the formwork.

Removal of FormworkWhen the concrete is poured, care should be taken to ensure that it is fully compacted around the back of the channel and especially adjacent to anchors. After the concrete has cured and the formwork is removed, the nails should either be cut off or bent away from any tie or ‘T’ head bolt.


Installation Guidance

Cast-in ChannelsFixing to Timber FormworkAncon Cast-in Channels are normally supplied in 3000mm lengths with welded anchors, nail holes, and infill. Incorrect installation is likely to result in expensive remedial work. All nail holes need to be utilised (except with Omega Channel), to prevent excessive ingress of concrete fines between the formwork and the channel during casting.

Both nail holes should be utilised when fixing 21/18 Omega Channel 100mm long to timber formwork. Longer lengths of this channel should be nailed at each end and then fixed at 300mm centres.

Nails with a plain shank should be installed perpendicular to the channel to ensure the easy removal of the formwork and the retention of the channel in the concrete.

Fixing to Steel FormworkChannels can be secured to steel formwork by using standard ‘T’ head bolts in pre-drilled holes.

Minimum Edge Distance

Channel Nailed to Formwork


Fixing Thickness and ShimsThe maximum fixing thickness for bolts shown is the maximum thickness which can be accommodated without reducing embedment. This maximum thickness cannot be achieved in every situation. Fixings which are subject to shear, or a combination of shear and tension, may have restrictions on the maximum thickness of shims. In particular, where shims are incorporated behind masonry support angles, their thickness should be restricted to 16mm, or the outside diameter of the fixing, whichever is less.

Safe Tensile Load Safe Shear Load

Combined LoadsThe recommended maximum loads in the tables on pages 14 to 20 are static loads in either tension or shear. In many applications however, the anchor will be subject to a combination of shear and tension. The combined loads must satisfy the following equation:-

Fixings into ConcreteThe recommended static safe working loads in this brochure are based on concrete with a compressive strength of 30MPa. A different value may be appropriate if fixings are used in concrete with a different strength.

The tensile load can be calculated using the following empirical formula if the compressive strength is in the range of 20 - 50 MPa and expansion or chemical / resin bolts are used.

These factors only apply to static tensile loads and are intended for guidance only. Site testing may be required to establish the true capacity of particular anchors.

Edge Distances and SpacingsAnchors fixed into concrete must be positioned to ensure that the specified minimum edge distances and spacings are not exceeded. Where reduced edge distances and spacings are unavoidable, the appropriate reduction factors must be applied. For instances where multiple close edges and spacings occur, the reduction factor is applied for every case.

Expansion Bolts and Bonded AnchorsDesign ConsiderationsThere are several factors which will affect the performance of these fixings. The following areas should be considered to ensure that the expected performance is achieved.

EmbedmentThe minimum embedment of anchors which are used to support stone cladding should be at least 75mm. To achieve this, the maximum fixing thickness will reduce with some of the smaller diameter bolts.

Installation

Drill the hole, through the pre-drilled hole in the fixture, into the concrete. This hole should be drilled perpendicular to the substrate surface, and to the correct diameter and depth. All dust and loose material should be removed from the hole using a wire brush or blow pump.

5

Lightly tap the throughbolt with a hammer through the fixture and into the hole, until the fixing depth is reached.

6

Tighten bolt to the recommended torque.

7

Before InstallationThe following checks must be carried out prior to the installation of Single Expansion Bolts.

The appropriate length and diameter drill bit is used.

The correct edge distance and spacing are used in accordance with either the information in the table or that specified on our drawings.

The anchor/fixing is the correct size.

The correct setting tools are used.

Note: The published working loads are based on tests using unreinforced concrete with a strength of 30MPa, incorporating a dense gravel aggregate. However crushing strength is no guide to concrete strength in either shear or tension, and concrete with a similar compressive strength but with a different aggregate may not achieve the same performance. Providing suitable reinforcement is incorporated around the sockets, the published values will provide a sufficient factor of safety for concrete with different characteristics.

Other Ancon ProductsWall Ties and Restraint FixingsLeviat manufactures ties in a variety of lengths and types for restraining brickwork, blockwork and stonework. These ties can be fixed to concrete and structural steelwork, as well as any type of masonry.

Masonry Support SystemsMasonry cladding on concrete or steel frames is normally supported from stainless steel support systems. Ancon MDC Systems create a continuous angle to support the outer leaf of masonry. Ancon Individual Brackets support masonry features such as curves and arches. A full design service is available to specifiers and users of Ancon systems.

Tension SystemsThe use of tie bars in structures and buildings as an architectural as well as a structural element is increasing. Ancon Tension Systems comprise a range of components which can be supplied in carbon steel or stainless steel in a variety of sizes and finishes. The system looks particularly impressive when used with large areas of glazing or timber trusses.

Shear Load ConnectorsAncon DSD and ESD Shear Load Connectors are used to transfer shear across expansion and contraction joints in concrete. They are more effective than standard dowels at transferring load and allowing movement to take place, and can be used to eliminate double columns at structural movement joints in buildings.

Reinforcing Bar CouplersThe use of reinforcing bar couplers can provide significant advantages over lapped joints. Design and construction of the concrete can be simplified and the amount of reinforcement required can be reduced. The range includes threaded and mechanically bolted couplers.

Special Stainless Steel FabricationsLeviat has a wealth of experience in working with different types and grades of stainless steel. Advanced manufacturing facilities enable one-off or volume orders to be fabricated to individual project requirements and to exacting quality standards. Considerable material stocks are maintained in order to meet urgent delivery deadlines.
