Channel and Boit Fixings Ancon SD21 Channel Tie Fixed to Omega 21/18 Slot and MDC Support System Bolted to 30/20 Channel CAST-IN CHANNELS Cast-in Channels range from simple self-anchoring slots for accepting restraint fixings to large capacity channels with integral anchors (pages 6-8). 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...

Tel: +44 (0) 114 275 5224 Web: www.ancon.co.uk SURFACE-FIXED CHANNELS Plain-backed channels can be surface-fixed to steel, concrete and in some instances, masonry (page 9). 25/14 Ancon 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 17). 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...

Tel: +44 (0) 114 275 5224 Web: www.ancon.co.uk CAST-IN CHANNELS Allowable Channel Loads The allowable loads are based on channels with standard anchors (page 8), cast into concrete with a strength of 30N/mm2. 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 Shear should be used for most applications involving 15°- Tension longitudinal...

Channel and Boit Fixings Double Crimped Lugs Channel Lugs Channels are supplied with either intgral 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.

Surface-Fixed Channel Bolted to Concrete Surface-Fixed Channel Fixed with a T-Head Bolt to Cast-in Channel Surface-Fixed Channel Fixed to Steelwork with Self-Drilling Screw Allowable Loads The 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 160N/mm2 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.

Fixing to Timber Formwork Ancon 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...

Embedment The 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. Edge Distances and Spacings Anchors 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. Fixing...

ChanneL and Boit Fixings EXPANSION BOLTS Single Expansion Through Bolts Single Expansion bolts fix into a hole which is similar to the diameter of the bolt. This allows the hole to be drilled through the hole in the item to be fixed. The Single Expansion bolt is a cost-effective anchor, available in grade 1.4362 (duplex) stainless steel in a wide range of sizes.
