DETAN ROD SYSTEMS


Project:Manchester CivilJustice Centre, UK

In this project DETANwas purposely appliedas a visual, creativedesign element.

DETAN Rod Systems are engineered not only to ensure safe and reliable structural bracing, but also to accentuate the aesthetic elegance of an architectural design.

DETAN – a creative design element

DETAN ROD SYSTEMS


DETAN Rod Systems provide reliable structural support and help the architect to bring to life visually pleasing, lightweight structures.

DETAN Rod Systems consist of rods and a comprehensive range of matching accessories such as fork ends, anchor disks, cross couplers, and more.

User friendly, DETAN Rod Systems can be easily adjusted for length with hidden threads at the fork connections. When used with the matching coupler, DETAN Rod Systems allow for an even greater construction tolerance range.

Assembly and Safety Notes

Installation Instructions can be found at: www.halfenusa.com → Products → Tension Rod Systems → DETAN → Installation Instructions

Prior to installation all DETAN Rod System components need to be checked for damage. Damaged components must not be used.

Fig. 1 Fig. 2a

Fig. 3a Fig. 3b

Fig. 2b

Maximum deviation: 0.5°

Forks must be correctly aligned (Fig. 1) and positioned in the same plane (Fig. 2a) to ensure that the tension system is not subjected to bending.

To ensure the rod can be installed, one fork end of the rod must be able to swing into place; this is not always possible (see figure 3b).An anchor disk must be used in this case; this allows correct installation (see figure 3a).

System Variants

System Variant with Asymmetric Distribution of Couplers

Normally DETAN systems are simply ordered by specifying the desired system diameter ds and the system length L. HALFEN calculates the rod lengths and checks the minimum and/or maximum system lengths. Couplers are automatically distributed symmetrically.

If an asymmetric distribution of the couplers is required, a dimensioned drawing must be included with the purchase order. A typical example of the dimensions required is illustrated in the drawing below.

Note: Maximum 2 cross couplers possible. Delivery in single components.

Using cross couplers for cross bracing:

DETAN rods can pass through cross couplers to enable cross bracing in the same plane.

System Engineering ‒ Important notes

• System design load capacities are based on a 1.1 factor to yield. Rod yield strength = 460 MPa ( 66,700 psi ), ultimate strength = 650 MPa ( 94,000 psi )

• Connecting plates (page 15) are not provided by HALFEN. Stainless steel grade 304 or 316 with a minimum yield of 36 ksi is assumed for the plate

dimensions and design loads shown. Conversions between metric and inch plate thicknesses are not exact to take account of commonly available mate-

rial. Other materials or thicker/thinner connection plates (dimension b) should not be used without consulting HALFEN. For system diameter 12 (1/2”)

and 27 (1-1/8”) maximum plus tolerance on the connection plate thickness (b) is + 1/64 ” or 0.4 mm

• Loads are based on Grade 36 stainless steel. If connecting plates differ from Grade 36, then please contact our office, 1.800.423.9140, and we will

provide new load capacities for you.

• Anchor discs can accommodate up to 8 rod connections. The minimum spacing between rods is 40 º

• Couplers with lugs for vertical support connections are offered for stainless steel system diameters 12 (1/2”) to 30 (1 3/16”)

DETAN ROD SYSTEMS


Application of pretension

The photograph to the left shows pressure being applied using the DETAN Pretension Unit. The application of pretension loads at the jobsite should be planned in advance with the HALFEN engineering department, which will assist with the conversion of the preloads to the hydraulic pressures required. Maximum recommended preloads, the matching hydraulic pressure, and the stress values are given in the table on page 18.

Adjusting the rod lengthThe pretension is applied via a special coupler located within the length of the rod. While the jacks unload the coupler tem-porarily, the coupler can easily be tightened to adjust the rod length to match the correct preload. After the adjustment the DETAN Pretension Unit is released and removed so that the full load is transferred to the coupler.

Optional checking of pretensionThe photograph on the far right shows a mechanical extenso-meter being used to double check the preload by measuring strain in the rod. This device requires gauge marks on the rod surface, but it is a good method for both initial verification and later checks during the structure’s life. Just like the DETAN tension unit, this device is simple to use, robust, and needs no external electrical power source.

Some DETAN Tension Rods applications require a pretension load to be applied. Normally it is difficult to accurately apply a pretension load to large diameter DETAN Tension Rods using regular wrenches. Thus, hydraulic jacks are often used to apply pretension loads.

The DETAN Pretension Unit is a jacking system designed especially for the DETAN System with diameters that range between M30 (1 3/16”) and M60 (2 3/8”). The system uses threaded shells to apply the preload thus preventing the damage to rod finishes often associated with using traditional hydraulic systems.

Features of the DETAN Pretension Unit • System is built especially for the DETAN Rod Systems• Extra lightweight aluminum design for easy use

Detailed instructions are available on our website at:www.halfenusa.com → Products → Tension Rod Systems → DETAN → Installation Instructions


Features and Application

• Accurate pretension up to 425 kN (95,600 lbs)• No electrical power needed• Surface damage to the finish of the rods is avoided• Calibrated manometer for accurate preload application • Additional checks are possible using an optional

extensometer (if gauge marks are applied)• Functional, simple & robust• Available for rent or purchase
