5 INTRODUCTION Thread-lifting systems are used in the precast industry and are suitable for lifting, transport and installation of precast concrete elements on site. Some of the advantages of this system are: - a wide range of lifting sockets - threaded lifting loops and cast-in lifting loops, - capability of establishing a connection in a safe, simple manner - most of the lifting systems can be re-used - CE conformance system. All Terwa lifting systems have the CE marking which guarantees conformance with the European regulations. The Threaded lifting system combines a lifting anchor embedded in a concrete unit and a lifting device. The design for Terwa threaded lifting anchors and technical instructions comply with the national German guideline VDI/BV- BS6205 Lifting inserts and lifting insert for precast concrete elements. Based on this guideline, the manufacturer must also ensure that the lifting systems have sufficient strength to prevent concrete failure. LIFTING SYSTEMS RE-USABLE LIFTING SYSTEM AND TRANSPORT ANCHORS - Anchor made from a socket swaged to wavy reinforcement steel. - Plain socket lifting inserts. - Socket welded to a plate. - Anchor made from a socket swaged to a standard screw for thin units. - A lifting loop manufactured from high grade steel wire swaged in a steel ferrule. - various accessories for recess forming or for affixing inserts to formwork CAST-IN LIFTING SYSTEM - Steel wire swaged forming a loop without additional tail. - Can be used with standard crane hook. - Cut off after use. CONNECTING ELEMENTS AND FIXING ACCESSORIES - Thread connections - Fixing Accessories Quality Terwa continuously controls the anchor production process from the perspective of strength, dimensional and material quality, and performs all of the required inspections for a superior quality system. All of the products are tracked from material acquisition to the final, ready to use product. Marking and traceability All anchors and lifting clutches have the CE marking and all data necessary for traceability, thread type and load class. Anchor testing Terwa lifting anchors are designed to resist at a minimum safety factor of 3x load group Terwa reserves the right to make changes to the documentation at any time Page 5

6 CE MARKING CE marking means that a product is manufactured and inspected in accordance with a harmonized European standard (hen) or a European Technical Approval (ETA). ETA can be used as the basis for CE marking for cases in which there is no hen. However, ETA is voluntary, not required by EU directives or legislation. Manufacturers may use the CE marking to declare that their construction products meet harmonized European standards or have been granted ETA Approvals. These documents define properties the products must have to be granted the right to use the CE marking and describe how the manufacture of these products is supervised and tested. EU s Construction Products Regulation takes full effect on 1 July There are no harmonized EN standards for detailed building parts such as connections used in concrete constructions, excluding lifting items and devices, which are covered by the EU Machinery Directive. For steel constructions, CE marking will become mandatory as of 1 July 2014 as covered by the EU Construction Products Directive. GENERAL GUIDANCE FOR LIFTING WITH TERWA THL, THS1 and THS3 Ensure that the concrete has Mpa strength of at least 15 before beginning lifting. The first choice for most lifting applications is the Lifting Socket with Waved rebar tail (TGK, TGL). For positioning the inserts, always check the permitted edge distances and spacing between inserts. We recommend restricting the lift angle to a maximum of 30 when an angled lift is necessary. To choose the proper lifting system, take how frequently the precast unit is going to be lifted into consideration. The cast-in threaded elements (anchors or fixing inserts) can be flush or recessed for corrosion protection. This recess is filled with fine concrete after use. All the Lifting Systems are tested before delivery under a test load three times the working load (individual test for THS1 and THS3, test for every batch of THL and TIL). THL THS1 THS3 GENERAL GUIDANCE FOR CAST-IN WIRE LOOP SYSTEMS Cast-in lifting loops TIL are used for lifting the precast concrete elements, especially beams. The lifting loop can easily be placed in the reinforcement cage of a precast unit. Part of the lifting system remains outside of the precast element for mounting the crane hook and lift.

7 TECHNICAL INFORMATION CHOOSING THE TYPE OF ANCHOR Terwa has 3 types of lifting systems: 1D Threaded lifting system 2D Strip anchor lifting system 3D T slot anchor lifting system The method of choosing the anchor is identical for all of these types and depends on the lifting method and/or experience. The 1D Threaded lifting system is mainly used when the hoisting angles are limited, while the 2D Strip anchor lifting system and the 3D T slot anchor lifting system can be used for all hoisting angles with minor limitations for the 2D Strip anchor lifting system. The difference between the 2D Strip anchor lifting system and the 3D T slot anchor lifting system is lies principally in the experience one has in using one or the other system. Terwa also has software for making the anchor calculations. SAFETY RULES The lifting system consists of a threaded anchor embedded in concrete and a threaded lifting device. The threaded lifting loop is connected to the anchor only when required for lifting. Ensure that the concrete has reached MPa strength of at least 15 before beginning lifting. These lifting systems are not suitable for intensive re-use. In designing the lifting system, it is essential to use the following safety factors to combat breakage: for steel component c = 3 for concrete element c = 2.5 for steel wires c = 4 The maximum permitted load on the components quoted in the tables has been obtained by applying a safety factor on test data.

8 ANCHORS LIFTING CONDITIONS Using three anchors spaced the same distance apart from each other as in the figure, three load bearing anchors can be assumed. Load bearing anchors: n=3 Using four anchors lifted without a spreader beam, only two load bearing anchors can be assumed. Load bearing anchors: n=2 Perfect force distribution is assumed using a spreader beam. Load bearing anchors: n=4 Perfect static weight distribution can be obtained using a lifting beam and two pairs of anchors symmetrically placed. Load bearing anchors: n=4 The compensating lifting slings ensure equal force distribution. Load bearing anchors: n=4 When the element is lifted without a lifting table at a straight angle and contact with the ground is maintained. Additional shear reinforcement is required. When the element is lifted without a lifting table at an angle and contact with the ground is maintained. Additional shear reinforcement is required. ß 30 o ASYMMETRIC DISTRIBUTION OF THE LOAD For asymmetrical elements, calculate the loads based on the centre of gravity before installing the anchors. The load of each anchor depends on the embedded position of the anchor in the precast unit and on the transport mode: a) If the arrangement of the anchors is asymmetrical in relation to the centre of gravity, the individual anchors support different loads. For the load distribution in asymmetrically installed anchors when a spreader beam is used, the forces on each anchor is calculated using the following equation: Terwa reserves the right to make changes to the documentation at any time Page 8

9 F a = F tot b/(a + b) F b = F tot a/(a + b) Note: To avoid tilting the element during transport, the load should be suspended from the lifting beam in such a way that its centre of gravity (Cg) is directly under the crane hook. b) For transporting without a lifting beam, the load on the anchor depends on the cable angle (ß). LOAD CAPACITY The load capacity of the anchor depends on multiple factors such as: The deadweight of the precast concrete element G Adhesion to the formwork The load direction, angle of pull. Number of load bearing anchors The edge distance and spacing of the anchors The strength of the concrete when operating, lifting or transporting The embedded depth of the anchor Dynamic forces The reinforcement arrangement WEIGHT OF PRECAST UNIT The total weight G of the precast reinforced concrete element is determined using a specific weight of: ρ = 25kN/m³. For prefabricated elements composed of a higher concentration of reinforcing elements, this will be taken into consideration in calculating the weight. G = ρ V V = L l s where: V - volume of precast unit in [m³] L length in [m] l width in [m] s thickness in [m] ADHESION TO FORMWORK COEFFICIENT When a precast element is lifted from the formwork, adhesion force between element and formwork develops. this force must be taken into consideration for calculation of the anchor load and depends on the total area in contact with the formwork, the shape of the precast element and the material of the formwork. The value H a of adhesion to the formwork is calculated using the following equation: H a = q A [kn] where: q- the adhesion to formwork factor corresponding to the material of the formwork A - the area of contact between the formwork and the concrete element when starting the lift Terwa reserves the right to make changes to the documentation at any time Page 9

10 Adhesion to the formwork oiled steel formwork q 1 kn/m 2 varnished timber formwork q 2 kn/m 2 oiled rough timber formwork q 3 kn/m 2 In some cases, such as π - panel or other specially shaped elements, an increased adhesion coefficient must be taken into consideration. Adhesion to the formwork Double T beam Ribbed elements Waffled panel where: G - dead weight of the element. H a = 2 G [kn] H a = 3 G [kn] H a = 4 G [kn] Adhesion to the formwork should be minimized before lifting the concrete element out of the formwork by removing as many parts of the formwork as possible. Before lifting from the table, the adhesion to the formwork must be reduced as much as possible by removing the formwork from the concrete element (tilting the formwork table, brief vibration for detachment, using wedges). DYNAMIC LOADS COEFFICIENT When movement of the precast units is performed using lifting gear, dynamic forces which depend on the lifting gear used develop. The lifting classes are described in DIN Lifting class Lifting load coefficient f at lifting speed vh Up to 90 m/min Over 90 m/min H vh 1.3 H vh 1.6 H vh 1.9 H vh 2.2 Lifting equipment Dynamic coefficient f Rail crane, swing-boom crane and fixed crane 1.3 *) Lifting and transporting on level terrain 2.5 Lifting and transporting on uneven terrain 4.0 *) lower values may be appropriate in precast plants if special arrangements are made. For cranes with precision lifting such as those in manufacturing plants, the lifting load coefficient is f = IN THE PRECAST YARD: - for lifting out of the formwork f = for tilt-up and transport f = 1.3 Terwa reserves the right to make changes to the documentation at any time Page 10

11 ON SITE: - for tilt-up/transport/install f = when transporting suspended precast elements over uneven terrain, the lifting load coefficient used is f > 2. For special transport and lifting cases, the dynamic coefficient is established based on the tests or on proven experience. LIFTING AT AN ANGLE CABLE ANGLE COEFFICIENT The load value applied on each anchor depends on the chain inclination, which is defined by the angle β between the normal direction and the lifting chain. The cable angle β is determined by the length of the suspension chain. We recommend that, if possible, β should be kept to β 30 o. The tensile force on the anchor will be increased by a cable angle coefficient z. F = F tot z/n where: z - cable angle coefficient n - number of load bearing anchors Cable angle Spread angle Cable angle factor β a z * * * preferred ß 30 Note: If no lifting beam is used during transport, the anchor must be embedded symmetrical to the load.

12 LOAD DIRECTIONS Various scenarios can occur during transport and lifting such as tilt-up, rotation, hoisting and, of course, installation. The lifting anchors and clutches must have the capacity for all these cases and combinations of them. Therefore, the load direction is a very important factor for proper anchor selection. Axial load ß = 0 o to 10 o Diagonal load ß = 10 o to 45 o Note: ß 30 o is recommended Tilting g = 90 o Additional shear reinforcement steel must be used. When a tilting table is used, the anchors can be used without additional shear reinforcement steel, not to exceed the angle g < 15 o POSITIONING THE ANCHORS IN WALLS Load bearing anchors: n=2 Load bearing anchors: n=4 Load bearing anchors: n=4 Terwa reserves the right to make changes to the documentation at any time Page 12

13 Lifting the walls from horizontal to vertical position without tilt-up table. In this case, the anchors are loaded with half of the element weight since half of the element remains in contact with the casting table. DETERMINATION OF ANCHOR LOAD The load on each load bearing anchor is calculated using the following formula: - When de-mouldf = (F tot f z)/n = [(G + H a ) f z]/n - When tiltingf = (F tot /2 f z)/n = [(G/2 + H a ) f z]/n During tilting, when the concrete element remains supported on the ground, only half of the forces have to be taken into account. For tilting, the load-bearing capacity of sockets and anchors is limited to 50% of the axial load. - When lifting F = (F tot f z)/n = (G f z)/n INSTALLATION TOLERANCES FOR ALL TERWA LIFTING SOCKET ANCHORS Terwa reserves the right to make changes to the documentation at any time Page 13

25 LIFTING BOLT ANCHOR HBB The Lifting Bolt anchors are suitable for shallow embedded elements with no need for a reinforcement tail. The force transfer into the concrete is provided by the bolt heat of the screw. Additional reinforcement is necessary for angled lifts. The lift angle must not exceed 30. Special tilting reinforcement must be used for turning/tilting. In all cases, Standard mesh reinforcement must be present in the concrete element. These fixing and lifting systems consist of a threaded bush locked on a standard bolt. The threaded bush is made of steel S355JO (yield strength min 355 MPa) galvanic protected (EV) or hot dipped galvanized (TV); the bolt is made of steel group 8.8. The threaded bush can also be made of stainless steel W AISI 316Ti (SS4).

38 LIFTING SYSTEMS THREADED LIFTING LOOP - THL Threaded lifting loops are suitable for use with all sizes of threaded lifting sockets. It is an economical lifting system that can be used for most applications, especially for onsite operations. Threaded lifting loops are not suitable for turning or tilting. If the loops are kept in storage for reuse, they must be inspected every six months and retested every year. These lifting systems are not recommended for intensive reuse conditions. Threaded lifting loops should only be attached to the concrete unit and used after the concrete strength has reached 15 MPa. In some cases, it may be economical and practical to leave this lifting loop with the concrete unit for final installation. The threaded lifting loop is made of high grade steel wire AISI 1010 (W ), swaged in a steel ferrule made of steel S355JO. It is zinc-plated for protection against corrosion. A label marked with the admissible load, the thread type and the code number of the testing is attached to each threaded lifting loop. Before use, check that the wires are in good condition. Do not use if the wire cable is bent, crushed or kinked or if there is any loosening of the outer layer. Discard if the wire is corroded or the thread is damaged.

46 CAST-IN LIFTING LOOPS TIL Cast-in Lifting Loops are the most economical lifting system. They require relatively large edge distances. Take the exposure of steel wire loops after the installation of the concrete unit into consideration. Once the unit is set in the final position, protruding loops can be cut off, if necessary, but the cut ends must be protected against corrosion to prevent staining from rust. The steel wire rope is more suitable for forming a cast-in loop because it is flexible, and the lifting loop made from reinforcing bar is liable to fatigue, especially if bent during angled lift. The minimum dimensions for installation in reinforced concrete are indicated in the table below. Additional lateral reinforcement may be required for acute angled lifts. Cast-in Lifting Loops are made of a highgrade steel wire AISI 1010 (W ), swaged in a ferrule made of AlMg1.8, with a fixing strip in the middle with an identification label, which must not slide down the hoop during casting and should remain visible. Each lifting loop has a label attached, marked with the admissible load and the code number of the testing. Cast-in Lifting Loops are zinc plated for protection against corrosion. These lifting systems are suitable for use through a single cycle from production to final installation. They are not suitable for multiple use applications. To choose the correct size for any lift, it is important to consider the angle of lift, the crane factor and the adhesion to the formwork. Cast-in lifting loops must be installed in the direction of the expected load. They should be suspended from supports attached to the formwork so that 2/3 of the loop will be cast in and 1/3 will remain exposed. The loops must be fastened to the reinforcement cage to avoid movement during concreting. Avoid bending the steel wire rope while the precast unit is in storage. Exposed loops can be attached to standard crane hooks, but the curvature radius of the crane hook should at least be equal to the diameter of the wire rope. It is essential to check that the wire rope is in good condition, with no broken, crushed or unravelled wire. Also, do not use if there are kinks in the loop or the wire rope is badly corroded! Cast-in Lifting Loops with any signs of damage should not be used. TIL Product no.
