Isolan Load Connectors Shear ® Insulated Balcony Connectors Rail Shear Reinforcement Ancon Isolan MV System ANCON ISOLAN INSULATED CONNECTORS In applications such as balconies, where concrete slabs pass through the building envelope, a cold bridge is created that can result in significant heat loss. Cold Bridge The Ancon Isolan system is a structural component used to join 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...

ISOLAN SYSTEMS Standard Isolan systems are available in five heights to suit different depths of balcony i.e. 160, 180, 200, 220 and 240mm, and are supplied complete with stainless steel shear reinforcement. Tension and compression reinforcement to be supplied by others. Notes: For clarity, main reinforcement (supplied by others) has been omitted from these drawings. The Isolan system should always be orientated so the stainless steel shear reinforcing bars are at the bottom of the slab on the side of the load (the balcony side). MV System The Ancon Isolan MV system is used for the transfer...

SYSTEM COMPONENTS ISO-Element The ISO-Element is 60mm thick, CFC-free, rigid white polystyrene insulation in a standard length of 750mm. It is available in five heights (160, 180, 200, 220 and 240mm) to suit different depths of balcony. Shear Reinforcement The shear reinforcement is duplex stainless steel grade 1.4462 and is available in three diameters (6, 8 and 10mm) as standard. In addition to the standard systems, this reinforcement can be bent into other required shapes outside the polystyrene insulation element. Tubes Polypropylene tubes with a 27mm internal diameter are located at...

Isolan® Insulated Balcony Connectors How to Use The Graphs MV Elements 1. The graph for the height of the Isolan element that corresponds to balcony slab thickness is selected. SPECIFICATION GUIDANCE Design Information The graphs on pages 10 to 14 are used to select the most appropriate Isolan element, and the diameters of the shear, tension and compression reinforcement. Example calculations are provided on the following page. Consideration should be given to horizontal forces on parapets and local concentrated load checks, these are not included in the examples. The graphs provide the...

Isolan® Insulated Balcony Connectors CORNER DETAILS At balcony corner configurations, if the diameters of the tensile and compressive reinforcement add up to or are greater than 27mm, attention to the local reinforcement detail is required. This is necessary because the inner diameter of the polypropylene tube is 27mm and if the tubes are maintained in the same horizontal plane, the reinforcement would clash. 3rd layer Top of cantilever slab 4th layer In the main load bearing direction the Isolan element is selected to suit the height of the slab, so that the compression reinforcement which...
