TENGATE MIRAGRID GEOGRIDSSIG CA offers a comprehensive range of geogrids, both biaxial and uniaxial, available in propylene or polyester. CMS geogrids can be used in most building or civil engineering applications, including highways, embankments, and slope reinforcement, retaining walls and spanning voids. Large aperture grids are available where the aggregate particle size is over 75mm.SIG CA also offers a combination grid / geotextile that reduces installation costs on projects where traditionally they were laid separately. These are typically used in areas where the soil has a low CBR or the ground has a high clay content.

ApplicationsEmbankments and slopes, foundations, asphalt reinforcement, highways, retaining walls and abutments and soil veneers.

ProjectsHighways, landfill, railways, waterways, new builds.

DYNA QUELL WATERSTOP

BENTONITE WATERSTOPEuro Accessories DYNA Quell Waterstop is a high swelling material used for effective sealing of joints in concrete construction. It is produced from a combination of Bentonite and Butyl Caoutchouc. This material will expand on contact with water to seal the gaps and pores in a concrete joint. After expanding the material retains its elasticity so that the seal will not be affected by any subsequent movement of the structure.

Field of application:

Sealing of construction joints in overground and underground structures to prevent ingress of pressurised water. Also used for sealing of concrete and steel pipework.

Field of application:Sealing of construction joints in overground and underground structuresto prevent ingress of pressurised water.Also used for sealing of concrete andsteel pipework.

Instructions for use:1). Keep dry until use.

2). Ensure that concrete joint is clean and free from debris.

3). The DYNA Quell should be placed in the centre of the joint.

4). There should be a minimum of 75mm between the DYNA Quell and the joint edge.

5). Firmly butt joint the end of each roll to the next.

6). Glue or nail the roll down to eliminate the possibility of movement during the concrete pour. We strongly recommend the use of the DYNA Quell fixing grid. This shold be placed over the top of the roll and shot fired at intervals of 250mm. This gives the possibility of movement during the pour.

7). Ensure that the row is in contact with the joint at all points.

8). The time lapse between fixing and concreting should be kept to a minimum.

SHEAR LOAD CONNECTORS

SHEAR LOAD CONNECTORSAncon shear connectors offer significant advantages overconventional single dowels. The two-part construction meansthat the sleeve component can be simply nailed to theformwork, drilling or either formwork or concrete is notrequired. The dowel unit can then be inserted into the sleeve.The engineered nature of the two components ensuresalignment, vital where movement is required.

DSDThe DSD is the original two-part, double dowel, shear load connector. The dowel component can move longitudinally within the sleeve to accommodate movement.

DSDQThe DSDQ shear load connector uses the same dowel component as the DSD, but the cylindrical sleeve is contained within a rectangular box section to allow lateral movement in addition to the longitudinal movement.

ESDThis single dowel shear connector is available in three sizes with each size available in two lengths. ESD shear connectors are used where the slab or wall is too thin for DSD, and where loads are small.

ESDQThe ESDQ shear load connector uses the same dowel as the ESD, but the cylindrical sleeve is contained within a rectangular box section to allow lateral movement in addition to longitudinal movement.

DOWEL BAR CRADLESDowel Bar Cradles are used to support dowel bars in contraction and expansion joints. When ordering please confirm type, height (which is from base of cage to bottom of dowel bar) and quantity required. Manufactured to customer requirements. Sold per metre.

STRIP JOINT CORNERSThis provides the benefits of an armoured joint arris for tied or free contraction joints and is designed to be used with traditional timber forms. It is manufactured from 10mm thick x 50mm deep square edged bright mild metal strip which has a very flat top surface (unlike hot rolled strip or angle, which produces a radiused top edge). 10mm diameter x 100mm long shear studs are stud-welded to the strips to ensure maximum keying into the slab. Angle metal strips are supplied for tied joints with shear studs welded on both sides of the strip to tie into the concrete on either side of the joint. Double Metal Strips are supplied for free contraction joints which have shear studs welded on one side of each strip. The two strips are hollow dowelled together and an 8mm nylon bolt passes through the dowel which shears when the joint opens.

TIEFILLFor the filling of tie-holes formed by formwork bolts in new construction, particularly where a rapid setting, durable, waterproof mortar is required. Tiefill is a single component, polymer modified, fibre reinforced, Portland cement based repair compound, which exhibits unique hydraulic properties to produce a rapid curing mortar with enhanced polymer properties. It only requires the addition of clean water to give a rapid setting, yet durable high strength mortar and is ideally suited for the filling of voids particularly in new construction which need to be rapidly put into service, such as tie-holes, grout holes and voids around fixings. For the treatment of tie-holes formed by through-ties, any remaining plastic tube should be cut back and removed to approximately 40-50mm from the concrete face. To eliminate the possibility of water tracking around the plastic tube, it should be plugged with cork or a proprietary stopper. Tiefill is a WRAS approved product confirming suitability for use in contact with potable water and it is CE Marked in compliance with EN 1504-3 Class R4.

REINFORCEMENT CONTINUITY SYSTEMSEAZISTRIP CONTINUITY SYSTEMEazistrip Reinforcement Continuity Systems are designed to maintain continuity of reinforcement at construction joints in concrete. Formwork design is simplified and there is no need to drill shuttering. Each unit consists of a galvanised steel casing which is dimpled to provide an effective concrete bond. Pre-bent bars are housed within the box and are secured by a protective cover. When the cover is removed the bars can be straightened ready for lapping onto the main reinforcement. Bars must be straightened only once, using an Eazistrip re-bending tool.

When the potential for water ingress through the construction joint is a major concern, Eazistrip can be supplied with a Pentaflex hydrostatic seal which provides protection against moisture permeation along the joint face.

Eazistrip Reinforcement Continuity systems are CARES approved. The grade of reinforcing bar used is Grade 500B, minimum yield 500N/mm2, minimum uniform elongation Agt 5%. The bars are bent in accordance with BS8666.Applications• Walls• Floor slabs• Stairwells• Slip forms• Gutters

REINFORCING BAR COUPLERS

TAPERED THREAD POSITIONAL COUPLERSThe positional coupler is assembled from a threaded bar with a nut and an internally threaded coupler sleeve with a lock nut. The positional couplers are suitable for a bent or straight reinforcement bar, of which neither can be rotated, and where the space for the connected bar is limited. Please refer to data sheet for correct installation instructions.

Positional CouplersBar Diameter Thread (mm)

10 1212 1616 2020 2425 3028 3632 4240 48

MBT COUPLERSThe MBT range of couplers provides a cost-effective method of joining reinforcing bars, particularly when the fixed bar is already in place. They are easy to install and achieve failure loads higher than 115% of the characteristic yield strength of grade 500 reinforcing bar. Neither bar end preparation to form threads, nor bar rotation are required. MBT couplers can also be used to join imperial, plain round or deformed reinforcing bars.

When the pre-determined tightening torque for the bolts is reached, the heads shear off leaving the top of the installed bolt slightly proud of the coupler. This provides an instant visual check of correct installation.

MBT ET SERIESET series couplers are used to connect reinforcing bars of the same diameter. They can be used when neither bar can be rotated and are available in sizes 10mm to 40mm.

MBT HEADED ANCHORSMBT Headed Anchors are designed to provide dead end embedment for bars in concrete. This helps to reduce congestion and simplify the placement of rebars by removing the need for hooked ends. The anchor comprises half an MBT coupler with a plate welded to one end which carries the full tension load of the bar when it is bearing against the concrete. The MBT Headed Anchor also has the added advantage of requiring no special bar end preparation.

INSULATED AND REINFORCED BALCONY CONNECTORS

ANCON ISOLANThe Ancon Isolan system joins external concrete balconies to internal concrete floor slabs. It provides continuity to both the reinforcement and the thermal insulation of the wall protecting the building against the effects of cold bridging. Standard systems, comprising rigid CFC-free polystyrene insulation and stainless steel shear reinforcement, are available in five heights to suit different slab depths. Conventional reinforcing bars (supplied by others) provide the tension and compression reinforcement.

FORMW

ORK



System BenefitsAncon Isolan connectors use conventional reinforcing bars (grade 500B to BS4449: 2005) to provide the tension and compression reinforcement. When compared to systems where this reinforcement is an integral component, the Ancon Isolan solution can provide substantial cost savings and simplify specification, scheduling, transportation, handling and installation.

MV SystemThe Ancon Isolan MV system is used for the transfer of moment and shear forces in cantilevered balconies.

V SystemThe Ancon Isolan V system is used for the transfer of shear forces in simply supported balconies.

PUNCHING SHEAR REINFORCEMENTANCON SHEARFIXAncon Shearfix is used within a slab to provide additional reinforcement around a column head or base. The system comprises double-headed studs welded to flat rails. Studs are manufactured from high strength steel bar in six diameters and in lengths to suit the depth of slab. Shearfix rails are manufactured from strips of steel, 16mm wide. The quantity of studs and rails, their dimensions and spacings, and the layout pattern around the column is determined by calculation.Ancon Shearfix

ACCESSORIESFROST BLANKETSApplication: Laying concrete at temperatures below 5ºC generally requires special precautions (such as special concrete additives, heating devices, hot vapour equipment etc.). An easy and inexpensive solution is the use of Frost Blankets. The thermal insulation effect of the Frost Blanket significantly reduces the loss of natural concrete hydration heat and thereby keeps the concrete warm long enough for a safe curing.

BenefitsConcrete laying in summer and winter season. The combination of their excellent thermal insulation performance, their negligible water absorption and their flexibility make Frost Blankets ideal for improved concrete curing.• Negligible water absorption.• Excellent thermal insulation.• Excellent chemical resistance.• Fast laying from the roll.

• Lightweight, easy to handle and cut.• Good mechanical resistance.• Flexible at very low temperatures.

Frost blankets from SIG can be directly rolled onto the wet concrete. Wind conditions might necessitate the mats being held in place by suitable loading at the contractor’s discretion. Beware not to walk on the mats during installation and before hardening of the concrete.

Available in roll size 6m x 1.2m x 48m (+/-5% tolerance on width and length).

MASONRY SUPPORTIn design situations when a masonry support angle is required there are three principle systems to choose from: AnconOptima, MDC or CFA. Through our on site design evaluation with your project manager and negotiations with your procurement and design teams, we can ascertain which system is appropriate in each instance.Project Management ServiceSIG Construction Accessories is the primary driver of information flow throughout the design process of masonry support systems. All aspects of the approval and manufacturing process are coordinated through a dedicated account manager, who will ensure the proposed designs are signed off for manufacture and delivered to your construction schedule. Detailed cross section and layout drawings are supplied for the bespoke support system required. This will show the location of the fixings, whether it is bolt positioning for cast-in channels for concrete frames or bolt positioning for steel frames. Bracket angle units are cross referenced clearly against grid lines for easy installation on site.Details for Specification and OrderingThe principal information needed to start an enquiry is:- What is the cavity size?- What is the masonry load to be carried?- What is the support system being fixed back to?

Bi-metallic CorrosionCorrosion of a steel frame may be slightly increased where there is direct contact with a stainless steel masonry support system in a damp environment. This can be avoided by isolating the two dissimilar metals by painting the contact area or by incorporating a separating membrane.

ANCONOPTIMA STANDARD SUPPORT SYSTEMSAvailable from stockThe Industry’s growing emphasis on speed of construction, and the limited ability of welded bracket support systems to provide adjustment on site, has created a demand for an offthe- shelf support system. AnconOptima consists of short two-step angles, interchangable brackets and locking wedges. Benefits of AnconOptima • More adjustable than welded bracket systems allowing for

variations in the structural frame. • Specified by using simple load / cavity charts. • No requirement for detailed layout drawings, reducing design

time. • Non project specific and supplied from stock. • Faster and easier to install - reduces labour requirements for

installation.

MASONRY



AdjustmentBrackets are changed on site to allow for variations in the edge beam and are available to suit cavities from 60mm to 150mm in 5mm increments.Shims can be used for fine adjustments and should never need to be more than 4mm thick.The AnconOptima System features a fixing zone providing a total of 50mm horizontal adjustment. If the system is to be fixed using expansion bolts, the brackets can be moved to eliminate clashes between the bolts and reinforcing bar. This also allows the system to be fixed to pre-drilled holes rather than slots in steelwork. Vertical adjustment is achieved in the usual way by the deep slot in the back of the bracket. Horizontal adjustment can be increased by fixing the system to an Ancon channel cast into the face of the concrete.

Cutting On SiteAnconOptima is not designed for specific buildings and certain angles will need to be cut on site to suit the length required. Each angle section must have at least two brackets.CornersStandard left-hand and right-hand corners are available. Each corner section requires three brackets in order to achieve the required performance. These sections should never be cut.InstallationA detailed installation guide is enclosed with each delivery. Additional copies are available on request.

ANCON MDC BRACKET ANGLE SUPPORT SYSTEMThis bespoke system can carry over eight metres of brickwork and can accommodate any width of cavity from 40mm. The brackets are welded to the angle and the material content of both components is optimised to ensure an economic solution.The Ancon MDC System can be supplied in a variety of configurations to suit particular applications and support special masonry features. The size of the support angle can be varied to suit the thickness and height of the masonry to be carried. Bracket spacing, depth and height are all varied to suit loadings, fixing position and cavity width.

Specification / ReferencingAncon masonry support follows an easy to use referencing system to aid installation on site. The reference always follows the same structure:

System / type / cavity / masonry load / projectionwhere:MDC = Welded Bracket / Angle.MDC/R = Welded Bracket / Angle with reversed angle.MDC/I = Welded Bracket / Angle inverted angle system.CFA = Cold Formed Angle standard system.

CFA / I / 50 / 6.0Continuous / Cold Formed Angle system with an inverted angle to suit a 50mm cavity and to carry 6.0kN/m run of masonry.AdjustmentCast-in channel will provide virtually unlimited horizontal adjustment; slotted holes in a steel edge member will offer more limited adjustment. The ability of welded bracket support systems to accommodate variations in the line of the structure is limited by the maximum thickness of shims. Shims can be included between the bracket and the frame up to a maximum thickness of the outside diameter of the fixing bolt, or 16mm, whichever is less. Vertical adjustment is provided by the deep slot in the back of the bracket.

CFA CONTINUOUS ANGLE SUPPORT SYSTEMContinuous angles are usually suitable for applications where cavities are small, or there is a requirement for the cavity to be closed at the support position. The angles will normally be supplied in lengths of up to four metres.

ADJUSTMENTAdjustment is provided in every direction to allow for tolerance in the structural frame. Vertical slots in the angle with serrated pads allow ±25mm adjustment. Horizontal adjustment is virtually unlimited when fixing to a continuous cast-in channel and will depend on the length of the slotted holes in the edge member when fixing to steel. Slotted holes (18 x 60mm) in the angle allow horizontal adjustment of ±22mm. Shims can be included between the bracket and the frame, up to a maximum thickness of the outside diameter of the fixing bolt, or 16mm, whichever is less.

CAST-IN CHANNELSCast-in Channels range from simple self-anchoring slots for accepting restraint fixings to large capacity channels with integral anchors. 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. There are many cast-in channel profiles, the most commonly used are 21/18 and 30/20. OMEGA 21/18The Omega 21/18 Channel is a self-anchoring channel for use with Ancon wall ties referenced SP21, SD21 or PP21. 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.

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

FIXING TO CHANNELSThis is achieved 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.Allowable Channel LoadsThe allowable load data is available on request.Channel InfillAll Ancon channels are supplied filled to help stop the ingress of concrete during casting.Installation GuidanceWhen fixing to timber formwork, all nail holes need to be utilised, to prevent excessive ingress of concrete fines between the formwork and the channel during casting. Nails with a plain shank should be installed perpendicular to the channel to ensure easy removal of the formwork.

LINTELSLintels span across openings (typically doors and windows) and transfer the weight of the masonry above the opening to the masonry each side. The horizontal leg of the lintel fits within a bed joint, the front edge is usually turned down to provide a drip edge which helps shed moisture above the opening. Lintels usually support both leaves of masonry, but single leaf lintels are also available.A complete range of galvanised and stainless steel lintels are available to suit all domestic and commercial applications.The Housing and Unilintel ranges are designed to suit the majority of loading conditions in cavity wall appications.The standard range consists of: • Housing Lintels.• Unilintels.• Channel Lintels.• Solid Wall Lintels.• Single Leaf Lintels.• Timber Frame Lintels.• Box Lintels.

CUSTOM LINTELSIn order to meet the requirements of today’s challenging industry, SIG CA can source the design and manufacture of both special stainless steel and galvanised steel lintels for applications where standard lintels are unsuitable.Solutions can be supplied for complex features such as corbels and other architectural details.Special cranked, bay, corner and cantilevered corners are available in addition to the following arch shapes:

• Segmental arch.• Semi-circular arch.• Apex arch.• Gothic arch.• Flat top arch.• Double arch.• Arched on plan.

The following information will aid the design of a custom lintel and if available should be supplied with your enquiry:• Wall construction: outer leaf, inner leaf and cavity size.• Clear span of opening.• Bearings available (if less than 225mm).• Radius or rise of arch and angles for apex/cranked and corner lintels.

MASONRY



WINDPOSTSLarge panels of masonry or panels with openings can often be difficult to justify structurally. The traditional solutions have been to either increase the thickness of the wall or introduce an additional column. Windposts fit within the wall allowing the existing thickness to be maintained. Both stainless steel and mild steel / coated windposts can be supplied. Windposts are complete with end connections and wall ties.ANCON WP1 AND WP3 WINDPOSTSThese are channel section windposts which are designed to be installed within the cavity leaving the blockwork undisturbed.ANCON WP2 WINDPOSTSWP2 Windposts are angle section windposts designed for either small cavities or where wind loads are high. One leg of the angle windpost is built into the blockwork, and the blockwork is tied through the leg of the windpost to minimise any possible movement or cracking of internal finishes. If a vertical movement joint is required in place of a tied joint, debonded ties can be supplied.ANCON WP4 WINDPOSTSThese are generally used in internal blockwork walls that have a ‘fair faced’ finish to both sides and where the windposts cannot protrude beyond either face. Sometimes referred to as ‘spine’ posts they are flat plates designed to fit within the wall. Although the depth of a WP4 post is limited by the width of the masonry (ideally 20mm less than the wall width) the thickness of the post can vary to increase its load capacity. Blockwork is tied through the post. Debonded ties can be used if the post is positioned at a movement joint.

WINDPOST DESIGNWindposts are designed and manufactured to suit each individual project. Sufficient time should be allowed for the design, approval and manufacturing process when placing orders.Ancon Windposts are designed to span vertically between floors to provide lateral support for panels of brickwork. The windposts will usually be restrained by the brickwork and designed as ‘simply supported beams’.Deflection under wind load will often limit the maximum loading. Windposts can be designed as ‘propped cantilevers’ to limit deflection, this however will require a much larger base connection which in many cases may be difficult to accommodate.Connections to the frame are designed to permit adjustment during installation. Serrated surfaces will be provided where adjustment is in the direction of the load. The top connection allows for shrinkage or vertical movement of the frame to take place.

The type of fixing will depend on the nature of the frame. Expansion bolts are normally supplied for concrete frames and set screws will be supplied for steel frames.Typical fixing details are shown opposite, although others are available.

PARAPET AND SPANDREL POSTSAncon Parapet and Spandrel Posts are restrained by the brickwork and designed as ‘cantilevers’. The base connection will need to be sufficient to resist the ‘bending moment’ and may in some cases be difficult to accommodate within the floor construction. The height of these posts is unlikely to be more than 1.6 metres.

BRICK REINFORCEMENT

ANCON AMR REINFORCEMENTAncon AMR is a steel reinforcement, designed to be located in the horizontal bed joint to strengthen masonry panels. The longitudinal steel wires are flattened to ensure good cover is maintained even lapped or used with wall ties. AMR meets the requirements of BS EN 845-3: 2003.Depth and LengthThe main longitudinal wires are flattened to less than 3mm. Ancon AMR is manufactured in standard lengths of 2700mm. The longitudinal wires have a minimum characteristic yield strength of 500N/mm2.MaterialsAncon AMR is available in Austenitic stainless steel (ref. S) and galvanised steel (ref. G). Stainless steel provides the greatest corrosion resistance and life-cycle costing benefits, and is suitable for use in any application. Galvanised steel is not suitable for use in the external leaf of a cavity wall.Wire DiametersThe Ancon AMR is manufactured from five wire sizes which, after flattening, have an equivalent wire diameter of 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5 and 5mm.WidthsAvailable in four standard widths (60, 100, 150, 175mm), the Ancon AMR can be used in wall widths from 100mm to 215mm.

ANCON AMR-CJ REINFORCEMENTAncon AMR-CJ allows the construction of collar jointed walls i.e. two leaves of thin masonry used in place of a single leaf of wider, heavier blockwork.It is supplied in a standard width of 175mm, in the full range of Ancon wire diameters above.

Density and Positioning of TiesFor walls in which both leaves are 90mm or thicker, ties should be used at not less than 2.5 per square metre (900mm horizontal x 450mm vertical centres). Ties should be evenly distributed over the wall area, except around openings, and should preferably be staggered.Length of Tie and EmbedmentWall ties should be of the correct length to ensure they are properly embedded in the masonry. The tie should have a minimum embedment of 50mm in each leaf but also take site tolerances into account for both cavity width and centring of the tie. For this reason we suggest tie lengths which achieve an embedment of between 62.5mm and 75mm. Recommended lengths to suit various cavity widths are shown for masonry-to-masonry wall ties.

DEBONDING SLEEVESDebonding sleeves are used on plain-ended wall ties at vertical movement joints. The tie will restrain the masonry against lateral wind loads but the sleeve will allow the masonry to expand or contract. A 120mm long sleeve will provide an allowance for movement and tolerance, and will be suitable for most applications. Other lengths and sizes available to special order. Length: 120mm.

INSULATION RETAINING CLIPThe red Insulation Retaining Clip will fit most Ancon and Staifix standard wall ties. Size: 80mm Diameter. Pack Sizes: Bags of 20 or 250. The TeploClip suits the TeploTie Range. The black TJ Clip suits the two-part tie.

TWO-PART TIECavities exceeding 150mm are sometimes required. This necessitates longer ties which can be difficult to balance and keep horizontal when built into the inner leaf. The Ancon Two-Part Tie has one section built into the blockwork; the other section is then fixed as the outer leaf is built. The inner tie is manufactured in a standard length of 170mm. Variation in the cavity width is accommodated by the length of the outer tie. Ancon Two-Part Ties sustain loads which exceed the requirements for a Type 2 tie to BS 5628-1 for cavities up to 300mm. An embedment of 75mm is required at each end.

LOW THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY WALL TIESWe supply ties which minimise heat transfer through thermal bridging, improving the energy-efficiency of a wall. Ancon TeploTie composite wall ties comprise pultruded basalt fibres set in an epoxy resin and are the most thermally-efficient wall ties on the market. With a thermal conductivity of only 0.7W/mK, they can be used to reduce insulation thickness and wall footprint. A sand finish provides excellent mortar key. For cavities from 50mm to 300mm. See wall tie selector for types and available lengths

ANCON FASTRACK CHANNELBuilding one leaf of the cavity wall in advance of the other is often beneficial but can create problems with coursing. Buildings which incorporate imperial or continental bricks and standard metric blocks present even greater difficulties. Ancon Fastrack Channel is built into the inner leaf of blockwork ready to take an Ancon SD28 or similar tie for the outer leaf. This method of construction avoids the dangers of projecting ties (Tie lengths = open cavity + 50mm). Ancon Fastrack Channels and Ties can be supplied in different lengths and can also be used for tying stonework to blockwork if DD28 or similar Ancon Ties are used. Ancon Fastrack Channels and Ties sustain loads which exceed the requirements for a Type 2 tie to BS 5628-1. This system can also be manufactured in a 36/8 channel profile that accepts wall ties referenced SP36 or SD36.

NON-DRILL ‘HAMMER-ON’ FIXINGSAncon’s range of ‘Non-Drill’ masonry to steel fixing solutions was developed to address the safety concerns of the Industry. Driven by customer demand for masonry restraint fixings with an alternate installation method from that of either shotfiring or drilling, Ancon engineered the innovative solutions that are detailed here. These fixings do not require the use of power tools and can reduce installation times and costs. In all instances they simply about the column or attach to the flange to restrain the wall against lateral wind loads. Eliminate the dangers associated with shot-firing and drilling:• Quick, simple and economical to install.• No power tools required.• No special skills or equipment required.• Fixings either abut the column or attach to the flange.

COLUMN TIEThe Column Tie clamps to the flange of a column. It accommodates a steel thickness from 6mm to 25mm and should be installed at 225mm vertical centres. Manufactured in lengths to suit the application, it can feature a drip for use across the cavity or a plain shank for installation back into the inner leaf.

REMEDIAL WALL TIESCorrosion of Cavity Wall TiesWall ties are an essential element in the stability of masonry panels. Prior to 1978, wall ties were usually manufactured from galvanized mild steel. These ties were expected to last the lifetime of the building, but for many years it has been recognised that some of these wall ties have corroded after only 15 or 20 years.

Type Description

Ancon MM 63 Mechanical / Mechanical

Used when tying together two leaves of solid materials, this tie has mechanical expanders at each end. Requires 10mm holes.

Ancon RM 63 Resin / Mechanical

For use when the material in the inner leaf is perforated, of low- density or afriable material. A resin fixing may be used to eliminate any imposed stress. Requires 10mm holes.

Staifix RR Used where mechanical expanders are unusable. Normally inserted into a hole, but if test facilities are required, a 12mm hole must be used. A plastic sieve can be used to retain resin and is particularly useful in perforated brick or hollow blockwork. A 12mm hole is required to fit the sieve.

Stairib Bar Stainless steel ribbed bar, resin-grouted into the inner and outer leaves.

Ancon AC 31 Used where bricks are removed then replaced in the outer leaf. The wavy end is resin-bonded into the inner leaf in a 10mm hole. The triangular end sits in the bed joint. Ancon AC 31 can be supplied with a drip or a neoprene ring.

HEAD RESTRAINTSHead Restraints provide the necessary restraint to the top of masonry walls. They allow for vertical movement to accommodate shrinkage or thermal movement of the wall or structural frame, whilst restraining wind loads.

ANCON IHR - INTERNAL HEAD RESTRAINTThe Ancon IHR is used for restraining the top of internal walls or the top of the inner leaf of a cavity wall. The opening at the front of the channel stem is sealed to prevent mortar ingress and to ensure that vertical movement can take place between the blockwork and the structure. The base of the stem must be built within a bed joint with the centre of the stem no closer than 50mm from the edge of the block. The vertical joint should be filled with mortar each side of the stem. The maximum joint between the top of the blockwork and the underside of the frame should not be greater than 25mm.The sliding tie can be provided with either a hole (IHR - B) or slot (IHR - V) to suit M8 bolts, with a notch end to fix directly into a 38/17 or 30/20 cast-in channel (IHR - C) and with a notch end to suit the Hammer-On Section (page 138) that attaches to a steel flange without site drilling (IHR - H). The standard Ancon IHR will suit a 215mm high block and can resist a load of 1.5kN*. Other sizes between 150 - 250mm are available.*The IHR-H can resist a load of 1kN. When fixed at 450mm centres staggered each side of the lower beam flange (effective centres 900mm on each side) the service load will be 1.1kN per metre in either direction.

ANCON FHR - HEAD RESTRAINTThe Ancon FHR Head Restraint is used for restraining the top of internal walls or the internal leaf of a cavity wall. The two angles clamp the top of the wall and have 9mm diameter holes to suit M8 bolts. They are supplied with two holes in the longer angle to allow the restraint to fit 100mm and 140mm blockwork. Each restraint can resist a service load of 1kN. To suit 100mm and

MASONRY SUPPORT FIXINGSDesign 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:• Embedment.• Edge distances and spacings.• Fixing thicknesses and shims.• Combined loads.Types of Suitable Fixings• Single Expansion Bolts (Concrete).• High Performance Bolts (Concrete).• Resin Anchors (Concrete).• Hollow Bolts (Hollow Slab).• Ancon SteelGrip (Steel Box Section).We can select the most appropriate fixing for your application.

SELF DRILLING SCREWThese screws feature a shaped drill tip of hardened steel that allows installation without pre-drilling. Hi-thread screws accommodate insulation between a surface-fixed channel and the steel frame. In addition to those products identified in the table, Ancon can supply hi-thread screws to suit an insulation thickness above 70mm thick and a steel thickness above 4mm. More information is available on request.Self-drilling screws should be fixed using a driver with a speed of around 1800rpm. Drive sockets are available.

The Helifix Load Test Unit is used on site to test the pull-out loads from the actual masonry units within the structure in question. These loads will be more meaningful than laboratory performance figures using selected materials.

MOVEMENT JOINTSHeliBar stainless steel helical bars in conjunction with plastic debonding sleeves can be used when creating a movement joint in an existing wall.

The 6mm diameter HeliBar is supplied in a standard length of 400mm for this application. The HeliBar restrains the masonry against lateral loads whilst the sleeve allows the masonry to expand and contract axially. The plastic sleeve is 200mm long to debond half the bar, allowing movement to take place at the joint.

This rapid economical solution to the lack of expansion joints is fully concealed once installed, avoids expensive taking down and rebuilding and causes minimal disruption to the building’s fabric.

DPC ACCESSORIES


HYLOAD DPC JOINT SUPPORT SYSTEMDesigned to enable contractors to make effective waterproofed joints between DPC’s, cavity trays and pre-formed cloak units. The system works by providing rigid support across the cavity allowing pressure to be applied to effect a waterproof joint.The system consists of a 350 x 200mm reinforced support of twin walled polypropylene with a 100mm self adhesive strip protected by silicone release paper on the upper surface. Joints are sealed by a 100mm wide self adhesive tape protected on both sides by silicone release paper.• DPC joint fully supported.• Product enables designer and installer to comply with current best practice.• Provides a watertight joint.• Improves installation procedures helping to reduce overall cost.

Step by step application of Hyload DPC Joint Support System:

HYLOAD DPC FIXING STRIP

The Fixing Strip is a semi-rigid plastic strip 25mm x 3mm x 2m pre-drilled at 150mm centres. It is used where surface fixing any Ruberoid high performance DPC to the inner leaf.

Application of Hyload DPC Joint Support System

1 Joint support prior to bedding 25-40 mm on each leaf

2 Fold edges to rest on brickwork/blockwork. Where the board locates on the external leaf, fold the two 40 mm x 50 mm side flaps to locate down the inside face of the outer skin. The board will now be tightly retained against the outer masonry.

3 Position joint support at point where DPC lapjoint will occur. Remove central silicone releasepaper and push DPC firmly in place

4 Apply a strip of Hyload DPC jointing tapeto the DPC

5 Remove top silicone release paper and immediately lap and bond DPC

6 Supported and watertight 100 mm wide joint

LEADED CAVITY TRAYSSHORT LEAD FLASHINGSSuitable to dress over the upstand of a secret gutter or soaker.LONG LEAD FLASHINGSSuitable to be dressed across the roof tile. In these circumstances, roof tiles must be suitably ‘shaped’ ie: not flat. At a later date when the roof surface is complete, the plumber has only to dress the flashings.InstallationTray installation is very straightforward and in a typical brickwork application the bricklayer lays one tray in every course, following the slope of the roof. All trays and the projecting lead flashing a r e flush-pointed as the masonry is raised.Thus the usual requirement to rake out joints and return to point-in flashings at a later date is eliminated.

Tray TypesThere are 4 main types of abutment trays:RIDGE TRAYThis unit straddles the ridge. It has open ends and thus allows water to discharge to the left or right.INTERMEDIATE TRAYTray is supplied handed and built-in each course up the rake of the roof. Each tray has an end upstand, thus water can only discharge via the open end into the tray below.CATCHMENT TRAYThis is similar to an intermediate tray, but it has upstands to both ends. Its function is to receive water from the intermediate trays above and to discharge this water through a weep vent.INTERNAL/EXTERNAL ANGLESAn angle tray is used instead of a catchment tray if the abutment ends or returns on a corner. An angle may also provide a link with horizontal trays.

Indoor comfort in summer and winterA comfortable indoor climate is characterised by:

• a pleasant room temperature throughout the year• ideal relative humidity• dry walls• healthy room air.

The outstanding thermal insulation properties and high heat reten-tion of JUWO POROTON Blocks provide a pleasant room climate. In a JUWO POROTON Block house, it’s always warm and cosy. The interplay between insulation and heat retention in monolithic masonry walls is unique.

A hot topic!! Cool in the summer: JUWO POROTON Blocks have the unique combination of a high thermal insulation and a high thermal mass. This natural air conditioning keeps the temperature in the house relatively constant and makes sure it isn’t too hot inside in the summer. No other building material can do this.

Compared with light wood structures, the advantage is real. The fact is that given the same thermal insulation, a JUWO POROTON Block has much more mass and can hence store more heat or chill.

Lowest moisture content of all comparable building materialsThe more moisture the poorer the thermal insulation. Rule of thumb: For every 1% increase in moisture the thermal insulation decreases by about 10%. JUWO POROTON Blocks are dried and then fired.

They have the fastest drying time and the lowest residual moisture content of all comparable building materials, which have drying times of up to three years and longer. This means that JUWO POROTON Blocks provide thermal insulation right from the start.

Saves money from the first day onHighly insulating JUWO POROTON Blocks really save money. Don’t be fooled by apparently cheaper building materials.

• Because the JUWO POROTON Block is dry and cannot shrink, the wall can be rendered or plastered without a long delay.

• Dry JUWO POROTON Blocks are thermally insulating rightfrom the start. This drastically cuts heating costs.

• Upkeep costs due to mould can practically be ruled out.

• Due to the dimensional stability of the JUWO POROTONBlocks and in connection with the recommended rendersand plasters, the risk of subsequent cracking is significantlyreduced.

Ecological leader• Ecological and sustainable building – ideally monolithic (plaster

inside, JUWO POROTON Block, render outside – done).

• Monolithic masonry façades without artificial insulation systems are free from harmful biocides (treatment with biocides to in-hibit fungal and algal growth is problematic in ETICS systems).

• External thermal insulation composite systems are moresusceptible to fungal and algal attack than rendered mono-lithic walls and have limited service lives (max. 30 to 40years). After that the façade must be disposed of as haz-ardous waste. This is not only absurd from an ecologicalpoint of view, but it is also very expensive. The insulationmania will cause huge ecological problems in the future!

• The rubble from a JUWO POROTON Block house can bereused as recycled building materials.

• Production in the most modern facilities in Germany (buildingwas funded by German Federal Environment Ministry).

• Institut Fresenius confirms: JUWO clay can even be used formedicinal purposes.

Why should I build a JUWO POROTON Block house?

• JUWO has been certified to Öko-Label III by Institut Bauenund Umwelt e.V. This openly presents all JUWO POROTONBlock data – from raw materials extraction through produc-tion to recycling – and creates transparency and comparabilityin the market.

Excellent thermal insulation – constant indoor climateThe outstanding thermal protection of your house (right from the start) is guaranteed by:

• solid and dry JUWO POROTON Blockconstruction

• continuous innovations in highly insulating JUWO POROTONBlocks.

JUWO POROTON Blocks meet current and future requirements for maximum thermal insulation.

Info! The actual thermal insulation is even higher:The JUWO POROTON Blocks are relatively heavy due to their high bulk density and store the sun’s energy longer than all other building materials, thereby saving additional heat energy. This effect was scientifically proven, for example, by Prof. Fehrenberg through examination of two rental properties with JUWO POROTON Block walls: one received additional insulation and the other did not. Before this, the heating costs had been nearly identical for both buildings. Afterwards, they were about 13% higher every year for the modernised building than for the unrenovated building. Why? The clay JUWO POROTON Blocks store the energy from the sun to prevent loss of heat energy. This effect is cancelled out by the additional external insulation. (Source: Welt am Sonntag)

Extremely high compressive strengthsThrough the special Wöllstein clay and a special production meth-od, even the most highly insulating JUWO POROTON Blocks have extremely high compressive strengths. A few examples from pro-duction:

For internal walls and insulated external walls:TP 240/175 TS²: to 20 N/mm². The TS² Quadrat precision-ground JUWO POROTON Block is hence the strongest in the world.For external walls: ThermoPlan® T and S series highly insulating JUWO POROTON Blocks: to 16 N/mm².

These values correspond to the German compressive strength classes 10–16. This puts JUWO above the JUWO POROTON Block manufacturing crowd. This is especially true for the top

heat-insulating stones of the non-JUWO POROTON Block com-petition. Here, a maximum compressive strength class of 2 is attained. JUWO POROTON Blocks are many times stronger.

Did you know?14 N/mm² corresponds to a load of more than 130 tonnes; i.e. a highly insulating ThermoPlan® S9 bears the load of more than three fully laden 40-ton trucks including trailers. Of course, most buildings do not need this kind of compressive strength. However, it is helpful for numerous structural details and provides a sense of security.

Minimum upkeep costs and maximum value retentionLifespan of 100 years – guaranteed appreciation in value. A house built of JUWO POROTON Blocks requires hardly any maintenance for decades, making the cost of upkeep very low. A JUWO PORO-TON Block house is also a safe investment you can actually use and enjoy right now – not virtually, abstractly or even never.

Effective acoustic insulationA heavy JUWO POROTON Block wall is extremely soundproof.

Maximum fire protectionA JUWO POROTON Block house provides maximum fire protec-tion and safety through:

• non-flammable JUWO POROTON Blocks• solid construction• long resistance times• no toxic fumes

Universal applicabilityJUWO POROTON Blocks can be used universally and flexibly for building everything from detached houses to multi-storey buildings.

The system incorporates a range of fascia/reveal liners, full replacement and New Build fascia, as well as hollow and solid soffit, with full portfolio of accompanying trims and ventilation products.

COMPOSITION AND MANUFACTURE HHI products are 100% lead-free and manufactured using an advanced environmentally friendly formulation for long life colour and maximum performance. The two-part co-extrusion process yields boards made of a cellular foam core (PVC-UE) with a top coating of rigid PVC to give its smooth, protective and hardwearing skin. The material is lightweight and can be worked in the same way as timber, having similar regard for safety and application issues.

Our cladding is a tough, durable and easily cleaned PVCu system providing the ideal solution to wall, ceiling and door finishes where hygiene is of paramount importance. The cladding is manufactured from the highest quality PVCu and is available in a wide range of colours.

The system has proven to be low maintenance, with the smooth scratch resistant surfaces making it easy to clean, which is an important factor for the many facilities it is installed in.

MAINTENANCE FREE UlTRA PANElSUltra Panel interior cladding is both functional and decorative. Available in 15 carefully selected colours and designs. It is manufactured from tough, recycled high quality PVCu and incorporates a hollow, fluted centre to provide added insulation.

This will help to reduce condensation and therefore inhibit mould growth. The panels can be installed vertically and horizontally.HHI provide a full Supply only service.

UlTRA PANEl PlUSUltra Panel Plus interior cladding is a waterproof system used primarily in bathroom and shower room applications. Available in 37 carefully selected colours and designs.

The panels can be installed using timber battens or applied directly to wall using Ultra Panel Wall Adhesive. There is a range of aluminium profiles permitting fast and easy installation. The precisely engineered Hydro-Lock tongue and groove joint allows a tight joint to be created between panels. Water tightness is achieved using Ultra Panel Adhesive in the joints.

Technical: Ultra Panel Plus• 9mm WBP plywood core• Bonded decorative face and white balancer high pressure laminate• 2400 x 1200 x 11mm available from stock• Cut to any size

PVCu extruded sheets are supplied with a protective film on its face which can be left in place until the room is ready for use. It is ideal for applications requiring a hygienic easy-to-clean, almost maintenance free wall finish, which conforms to all hygiene requirements.
