Architects
We provide architects with creative design opportunities.
Anstar Oy is a Finnish family business specialising in the sales and manufacture of concrete structure connections and composite beams. We are an international operator, and one of the pioneers in the field. Anstar will help you with all your questions relating to concrete connections. Anstar’s specialists may also develop solutions to customer-specific connection problems.
A-BEAM® and Anstar’s connection technology form part of the frame system, offering cost-efficiency and flexibility for construction.
Diagonal ties are used in concrete sandwich panels to connect the outer skin with the inner skin through the insulation layer. The ties transfer the self-weight and wind loads of the outer skin to the inner skin.
Fastening plates are used on cast-in-place and prefabricated structures to provide a mounting surface for welding.
Anstar has developed bracket and support systems for efficient and affordable construction. The connection pieces are easy to install both at the prefabrication factory and on site.
Balcony hinges are used to transfer horizontal forces from the balcony to the building frame. The hinged connection enables vertical movement.
Anchor bolts and column shoes can be used in concrete element frame connections to foundations and column extensions.
Rebar couplers are used for joining rebars with full tension capacity. The ends of bars to be joined are provided with threads, and the bars are joined using a coupler sleeve that transfers the force on the rebar across the connection.
ADE® and ADK® bracing connections are designed for stabilising the concrete element frame. These connections
are used in the joints between concrete columns and stabilising steel bracings.
