Overview
The document provides technical specifications and installation procedures for FP McCann's Prestressed Vertical Cantilever Panel system, highlighting its advantages over traditional in situ wet-cast systems.
Specifications
Panels are prestressed for enhanced strength and reduced tensile cracking. The concrete grade used is C50/60. Panels feature tongue and groove joints for effective sealing and alignment. Standard panel dimensions include thicknesses of 120mm, 160mm, and 200mm, with widths of 1.5m (standard) and special orders of 1m and 1.2m.
Key Features
Greater strength in slender panels compared to traditional systems, reduced need for large lifting vehicles due to lighter panel weight, retained heights up to 4m for various materials, and up to 7.5m for wind-only designs. Standard Class A steel mould finish on one side, hand-trowelled on the other.
Applications
Applications include soil and coarse material retention, silage clumps, underground slurry stores, basements, waste recycling bunkers, security and fire walls, and flood alleviation schemes.
Handling and Installation
Panels should be offloaded and stacked on flat hard standing, with stacking timbers placed directly above the panel below. Do not stack more than six panels high. Foundation trench preparation includes forming a strip footing and setting cradles for panel placement. Temporary propping is necessary until the foundation concrete reaches a strength of 25N.
