1 with cages Standardised Foundation Kits Over the last few years, eedi and the Australian Institute of Steel Construction, now the Australian Steel Institute [ASI], in a joint initiative, have worked to establish the standardisation of building column base plates and holding-down bolt for the Australian market. In the past, structural designers did not have the opportunity to select base plates and holding-down bolt conforming to recognised standard patterns that suited a major proportion of the range of the steel sections used for columns in Australia. Traditionally, these items have been custom made to suit each project. The eedi FootiPak range of products allows the designer to select pre-engineered, off-the-shelf kits of foundation bolts, complete with prefabricated cages and base plate templates to suit UB to 61UB, 7WB, UC to 31UC, 76CHS to 5CHS, 89x89 SHS to xshs, and 1x76RHS to xrhs sections. This rationalised range of FootiPak kits, available as stock items, provides a practical and economical alternative to custom made product for a majority of column base applications. Features Pre-engineered Practical size Published design details and Load Tables Available off-the-shelf Compact packaging in knock-down form Fully galvanised Foundation anchoring bolts included Hex nuts and flat washers included [ per bolt] Prefabricated WebLok ligature included Timber template included Simple to assemble Centre lines marked on template s can be turned to allow insertion into rebar cage, then returned to original location WebLok ligature can be repositioned without dis-assembling No welding required Non standard sizes available subject to quote Kit Components (typical bolt FootiPak) Kit Components for each kit 1 Steel template foundation anchoring bolts (in bolt kit) nuts and washers per bolt 1 Weblock ligature Installation guide 1

For embedment lengths or edge distances less than these values, fully developed reinforcement must be provided to intercept potential cracking planes. Intersection of overlapping cracking zones has been considered in determining unreinforced concrete capacities for the actual bolt used. FootiPak (Reinforcement where required) 17
