CAST-IN CHANNELSCast-in Channels range from simple self-anchoring slots for accepting restraint fixings tolarge capacity channels with integral anchors(pages 6-8). They provide the necessaryadjustment required when fixing to concreteand can eliminate site drilling. Nail holes aidthe fixing of channels to timber formwork andan infill prevents the ingress of concrete during casting.

Cast-in fixings do not generate expansiveforces in the concrete and can be used atclose centres and closer to the edges thanexpansion fixings.

OmegaPatent No: 2249110

The Omega 21/18 Channel is a self-anchoringchannel for use with Ancon wall ties referenced _ _21. The shallow depth of 18mm allows thechannel to be used where there is reducedcover to the reinforcement. Nail holes aid thefixing of the channel to timber formwork. Ifsteel formwork is to be used, or the formworkis to be surface-vibrated, please seek advicefrom Ancon’s Technical Services Team.

30/20Patent No: EP0882164B

Ancon 30/20 is a high performance channel.Its unique shape allows the applied load to be fed directly from the channel lips to theanchors and the more compact section sizeimproves its fit between reinforcement.Specially designed T-head bolts ride up thesloping sides of the channel and securely lockbehind the front lips. This channel also acceptsstandard 20mm wide wall ties. 30/20 is filledwith continuously extruded closed-cell PE-LDfoam. This material is removed easily in longsections and is 100% recyclable.

Ancon 30/20 should be used in preference to38/17 channel. 30/20 is a high performancechannel and its lower material content offersconsiderable cost benefits.

MDC Support System Fixed to CombiDeckFeaturing 30/20 Channel

AnconLockAnconLock has teeth cut into the returned lipsof the channel. The ‘T’ head bolts used to fixto this channel have a matching serratedsurface on the underside of the head whichprovides a high resistance to slip under shearload along the line of the channel.

CombiDeckPatent No: 2256211

Ancon CombiDeck has been developed foruse with the permanent metal deck shutteringof steel frame structures. CombiDeck edgesupport is supplied with an integral channelsection, usually 30/20 channel, built into theside to accept Ancon ‘T’ head bolts. Moreinformation on this product can be found in theAncon Masonry Support Systems literature.

SURFACE-FIXED CHANNELS Plain-backed channels can be surface-fixed tosteel, concrete and in some instances,masonry (page 9).

25/14Ancon 25/14 accepts Ancon _ _ 25 wall ties andhas been designed to tie masonry cladding tosteel frames, including light section steelstudwork. It is fixed to the steel at 450mmvertical centres with self-drilling screws (page 17).The channel is supplied with pre-punched holesat close centres to allow cutting on site andhas a 16mm opening to accommodate a drivesocket for the fixing screws. More informationon this system, including wall tie spacing, isavailable in the Ancon Wall Ties and RestraintFixings brochure.

BOLT FIXINGS

Expansion BoltsThe range consists of Single Expansion Boltsand High Performance Bolts. The latter havedouble expansion clips that reduce axial andedge spacings and will achieve highperformance even in cracked concrete (pages 12-13).

Bonded AnchorsThese fixings create a strong chemical bondbetween the anchor and the host material.Resin is supplied in either ready-mixedcapsules or mixed on application from acartridge (pages 14-15).

Fixings for SteelworkThe Ancon Steelgrip simplifies the fixing ofsupport systems to hollow steel sectionswhere access is only available from one side(page 16). Stainless steel set screws and self-drilling screws are also available (page 17).

Cast-in SocketsSockets enable fixing to concrete whereadjustment is either unnecessary or can beprovided elsewhere (page 18).

CAST-IN CHANNELS

Allowable Channel LoadsThe allowable loads are based on channelswith standard anchors (page 8), cast intoconcrete with a strength of 30N/mm2. Theallowable loads will ensure a minimum factor ofsafety of 3 against failure.

Longitudinal loads are achieved by frictionusing fully-tightened stainless steel or grade4.6 bolts. Higher longitudinal loads can beachieved by using higher strength bolts at anincreased torque. AnconLock toothed channelshould be used for most applications involvinglongitudinal loads.

SURFACE-FIXED CHANNELSChannels are supplied plain-backed for surfacefixing to either concrete or steelwork. Whenbolting channel to concrete or steelwork it isimportant to utilise all fixing holes (except with25/14 channels), incorporating the squarewasher provided and ensuring its correctorientation to achieve the allowable loads. Bolt and washer specifications are shown andbolts should be installed following the guideson page 12 and 13.

25/14 Channel should be fixed to steelwork at 450mm vertical centres with self-drillingscrews.

Welded FabricationsWhere channels with welded anchors are cuton site, it is important to ensure that there is awhole anchor within 50mm from the end of the channel.

Where horizontal cast-in channel is used inconjunction with brickwork support systems,all external corners must incorporate a WeldedCorner Fabrication. Release oil must not beapplied to either the channel or the anchor.

Minimum Edge DistanceCare should be taken to ensure that thedimensions from the centre of the channel tothe edges of the concrete are not less than theminimum edge distance shown on page 7.The channel must be lined and levelledcorrectly. In every situation, care must be takento ensure a good fit is obtained between theface of the channel and the formwork.

Removal of FormworkWhen the concrete is poured, care should betaken to ensure that it is fully compactedaround the back of the channel and especiallyadjacent to anchors. After the concrete hascured and the formwork is removed, the nailsshould either be cut off or bent away from anytie or ‘T’ head bolt.

INSTALLATION GUIDANCE

CAST-IN CHANNELS

Fixing to Timber FormworkAncon Cast-in Channels are normally suppliedin 3000mm lengths with welded anchors, nailholes, and infill. Incorrect installation is likely toresult in expensive remedial work. All nail holesneed to be utilised (except with OmegaChannel), to prevent excessive ingress ofconcrete fines between the formwork and thechannel during casting.

Both nail holes should be utilised when fixing21/18 Omega Channel 100mm long to timberformwork. Longer lengths of this channelshould be nailed at each end and then fixed at300mm centres.

Nails with a plain shank should be installedperpendicular to the channel to ensure theeasy removal of the formwork and theretention of the channel in the concrete.

Fixing to Steel FormworkChannels can be secured to steel formwork byusing standard ‘T’ head bolts in pre-drilledholes. Where metal deck floors are beingused, Ancon CombiDeck has a built-in channeland will replace the standard edge trim.

Fixing Thickness and ShimsThe maximum fixing thickness for bolts shown is the maximum thickness which can beaccommodated without reducing embedment.This maximum thickness cannot be achievedin every situation. Fixings which are subject toshear, or a combination of shear and tension,may have restrictions on the maximumthickness of shims. In particular, where shimsare incorporated behind masonry supportangles, their thickness should be restricted to16mm, or the outside diameter of the fixing,whichever is less.

Combined LoadsThe recommended maximum loads in thetables on pages 12 to 18 are static loads ineither tension or shear. In many applicationshowever, the anchor will be subject to acombination of shear and tension. The combined loads must satisfy the followingequation:-

Fixings into ConcreteThe recommended static safe working loads inthis brochure are based on concrete with acompressive strength of 30N/mm2. A differentvalue may be appropriate if fixings are used inconcrete with a different strength.

The tensile load can be calculated using thefollowing empirical formula if the compressivestrength is in the range of 20 - 50 N/mm2 andexpansion or chemical / resin bolts are used.

These factors only apply to static tensile loadsand are intended for guidance only. Site testingmay be required to establish the true capacityof particular anchors.

Edge Distances and SpacingsAnchors fixed into concrete must be positionedto ensure that the specified minimum edgedistances and spacings are not exceeded.Where reduced edge distances and spacingsare unavoidable, the appropriate reductionfactors must be applied. For instances wheremultiple close edges and spacings occur, thereduction factor is applied for every case.

EXPANSION BOLTS AND BONDED ANCHORS

Design ConsiderationsThere are several factors which will affect theperformance of these fixings. The followingareas should be considered to ensure that theexpected performance is achieved.

EmbedmentThe minimum embedment of anchors whichare used to support stone cladding should beat least 75mm. To achieve this, the maximumfixing thickness will reduce with some of thesmaller diameter bolts.

Page 12: Ancon Channel & Bolt Fixings

Before InstallationThe following checks must be carried out priorto the installation of Single Expansion Bolts.

The appropriate length and diameter drillbit is used.

The correct edge distance and spacingare used in accordance with either theinformation in the table or that specified ondrawings produced by Ancon Building Products.

The anchor/fixing is the correct size.

The correct setting tools are used.

Installation

Lightly tap the throughbolt with a hammerthrough the fixture and into the hole, until thefixing depth is reached.

Drill the hole, through the pre-drilled hole in thefixture, into the concrete. This hole should bedrilled perpendicular to the substrate surface,and to the correct diameter and depth. All dustand loose material should be removed fromthe hole using a wire brush or blow pump.

High Performance BoltsThese are high performance through boltsmanufactured in grade 1.4401 (316) stainlesssteel. They have double expansion clips thatreduce axial and edge spacing and achievehigh performance even in cracked concrete.

They fix into a hole which is similar to thediameter of the bolt. This allows the hole to be drilled through the hole in the item to be fixed.

Wall Ties and Restraint FixingsAncon manufactures ties in a variety of lengthsand types for restraining brickwork, blockworkand stonework. These ties can be fixed toconcrete and structural steelwork, as well asany type of masonry.

Masonry Support SystemsMasonry cladding on concrete or steel framedbuildings is normally supported by stainlesssteel masonry support systems. Ancon hasdeveloped the most comprehensive range ofstainless steel support systems and restraints.Products include AnconOptima, a standardsystem available from stock. A full design anddrawing service accompanies our bespokesupport systems.

Tension SystemsThe use of tie bars in structures and buildingsas an architectural as well as a structuralelement is increasing. Ancon Tension Systemscomprise a range of components which canbe supplied in carbon steel or stainless steel ina variety of sizes and finishes. The systemlooks particularly impressive when used withlarge areas of glazing or timber trusses.

Shear Load ConnectorsAncon DSD and ESD Shear Load Connectorsare used to transfer shear across expansionand contraction joints in concrete. They aremore effective than standard dowels attransferring load and allowing movement totake place, and can be used to eliminatedouble columns at structural movement jointsin buildings.

Reinforcing Bar CouplersThe use of reinforcing bar couplers canprovide significant advantages over lappedjoints. Design and construction of the concretecan be simplified and the amount ofreinforcement required can be reduced.The Ancon range includes threaded andmechanically bolted couplers.

Punching Shear ReinforcementUsed within a slab to provide additionalreinforcement around columns, Ancon Shearfixis the ideal solution to the design andconstruction problems associated withpunching shear. The system consists ofdouble-headed studs welded to flat rails,positioned in a symmetrical pattern around thecolumn head. The shear load from the slab istransferred through the studs into the column.
