Fastening plates

Heavy-duty Fastening Plates

JAL® fastening plates are used in concrete element and in-situ cast structure joints when the durability values of AKL® and KL plates are insufficient for plates of a comparable size. AKLP and AKLJ fastening plates are suitable for shallow structures where there is space for the plate’s short grips. The plate can also be used without reinforcement.

Fastening plates are used to form a welding attachment surface on the surface of in-situ cast and precast concrete structures. JAL® fastening plates transfer heavy loads from the related structure to the concrete base. JAL® fastening plates are suitable for deep structures where there is space for the plate's long grips. The plate is placed at the edge of the structure just the protective concrete layer (35 mm) distance from the edge. In edge placement, the plate is reinforced. The durability values of the JAL fastening plate are determined based on the placement distance. The JAL plate has three material options.

Fastening Plate Applications

  • JAL® fastening plates are used in concrete element and in-situ cast structure joints when the durability values of AKL® and KL plates are insufficient for plates of a comparable size.
  • The joint transfers forces through the fastening plate's grips to the base concrete.
  • The plate has short grips and is suitable for shallow structures.
  • Durability values are determined for both reinforced and unreinforced structures.
  • The plate can be reinforced for tensile and shear forces.
  • Surface plate materials: S355J2+N and austenitic 1.4301 and 1.4401.

Joint Design

  • The durability values of the fastening plate are determined according to the SFS-EN 1992-4:2018 standard.
  • The fastening plate joint is designed using Anstar Oy's ASTEEL software.
  • The sofware calculates the selected fastening plate's loads for fracture and accident situations.
  • The software calculates the reinforcement of the fastening plate.
  • With the ASTEEL software, the durability of the profile to be welded to the fastening plate and the weld joint are calculated.
  • The software produces strength calculations for the fastening plate, the joint profile, and the weld.


AKLP and AKLJ Fastening Plate

AKLP and AKLJ fastening plates are suitable for shallow structures where there is space for the plate's short grips. The plate can also be used without reinforcement. The plate is placed at the edge of the structure at a minimum distance of the protective concrete layer (25 mm) from the edge. In edge placement, the plate is reinforced. The durability values of the fastening plate are determined based on the placement distance. The length of the fastening plate is made to order. The fastening plate has three material options.

Standard Fastening Plates

Products

A-BEAM®

A-BEAM® and Anstar’s connection technology form part of the frame system, offering cost-efficiency and flexibility for construction.

Ties

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

Fastening plates are used on cast-in-place and prefabricated structures to provide a mounting surface for welding.

Suspension components

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 connections

Balcony hinges are used to transfer horizontal forces from the balcony to the building frame. The hinged connection enables vertical movement.

Rebar bolts and anchor bolts

high-quality rebar and anchor bolts are responsibly made with recycled steel. There are two different basic types of bolts: ATP- ja AHP® rebar bolts and ALP® anchor bolts

AEP® hidden bracket

AEP® hidden brackets are used to fasten a concrete element beam or Anstar A-BEAM® to the side of a concrete element column, wall or another beam. 

AOK® support

The AOK® support is used in a hollow-core slab floor opening as the load-bearing structure for the end of the slab. The AOK® support has been granted a patent, which enables exclusive rights to the most cost-effective support in the market.

Column shoes

Column shoes are used in light- and heavy-duty column extension and foundation connections; wall shoes are used in the tension connections of stiffening wall and shaft elements, retaining walls and earth pressure walls that stiffen the building.

Rebar couplers

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.

Bracing connections

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.
