2 Lindapter - Technical Innovation in Steelwork Connections 2

3 Established in 1934 as a small family business Lindapter has now become the market leader in steelwork fixings with a worldwide reputation; export accounting for an increasing portion of our Founder business. Lindapter abides by Henry Lindsay a policy which includes strict adherence to quality control and EHS procedures; also offering first class customer service using state of the art equipment. Continual improvement of both products and policies ensures that Lindapter continues to be at the forefront in the marketplace. All enquiries are dealt with on an individual basis ensuring that customers receive the correct technical support together with project specific drawings in either 2D or 3D formats together with itemised parts list; all part of a free comprehensive service. For situations where standard products are just not enough the R & D facility can design and develop new special products to suit individual applications. Whatever the application all products will meet Lindapters own exacting standards ensuring that they are safe, quick and easy to install saving the customer both time and money by reducing installed costs. As the vast majority of Lindapter products require no site drilling or welding steel sections can, if and when necessary, be reused ensuring both current and future environmental and sustainability issues can be met. In the plant on the opposite page many different Lindapter applications are outlined. 3

7 Quality and Approvals Quality Product quality is one of the main life lines of the Lindapter philosophy, the entire company is particularly dedicated to this aspect. Lindapter has been accredited to BS EN ISO 9001 since Approvals Lindapter has been trading internationally for many years respecting the market differences around the world. The relevant international authorities have granted many product approvals over time. The catalogue refers to them product by product. Approvals for construction The Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik, Berlin is a body which approves products and materials for use in structural engineering applications in the construction and civil engineering industries in Germany. Lloyds Register Type Approved products have been subjected to tensile, frictional, shear, vibration and shock tests, witnessed and verified by Lloyds Register. The TÜV is the certifying authority for safety, quality and environmental protection in Germany. Det Norske Veritas has approved the use of Lindapter products in lifting applications. This includes their use on both mobile and fixed offshore installations. Q Approvals for sprinkler products The American Insurance Association, Factory Mutual, offers an approval which is recognised by the fire protection industry world-wide. Verband der Schadenversicherer e.v. is a German insurance association who also offers a rigorous approval for products used in the fire protection industry. These approvals serve to reinforce Lindapter s extensive in-house testing procedures. Lindapter products are tested so that the user can be confident whether specifying or using that Lindapter products will perform as per the information detailed in this catalogue. Loads published are the product safe working loads, taking into account a factor of safety. Corrosion Protection Lindapter products are delivered as standard either bright zinc plated or hot dip galvanised. Various other coatings and alternative materials are available upon request for most products including: Sheradising Delta seal Mechanical galvanising Delta tone Plastic coating Sheraplex Special paint coating Stainless steel Lindapter is a member of the following organisations: British Constructional Steelwork Association The Steel Construction Institute The Building Services Research and Information Association 7

9 Steelwork Fixings 1 Steelwork Fixings Lindapter Steelwork Fixings can be used in a wide variety of applications for connecting together steel sections of whatever shape and size; uppermost in this section is the Girder Clamp which, as with most Lindapter products, needs no on site drilling or welding saving both time and money by reducing installed costs. Numerous world wide project successes have demonstrated that this is ideally suited for both new construction and refurbishment of existing structures. Advantages Reduces design time Guaranteed loads and approvals No on-site drilling or welding Hot Working not required Less work at height Only hand tools required to install Site adjustable Power not required Ability to deconstruct and multi-cycle rather than demolish Markets include: Plant Engineering Chemical and Petro-chemical Industry Materials Handling Structural Engineering Civil Engineering Facades Theatre Equipment Transportation Offshore Applications include: Steel Constructions Cranes Lifting Beams Pipe Supports Towers and Masts 9

10 Girder Clamps Steelwork Fixings 1 Components of a Girder Clamp 1. Standard Grade 8 Hex Nut 2. Standard Hardened Washer 3. Lindapter Clamp Dependent on the application different clamps could be used i.e. Types A, B, BR, AF, LR, LS, D2 or D3. 4. Packing Piece In combination with the clamps mentioned above these parts increase the tail length to enable the product to sit correctly on the beam. 5. Location Plate (can be supplied if required) This is an essential part of the girder clamp assembly that enables all the components to be located in the correct position. The hole centres and plate thickness are calculated to suit the individual application. 6. Lindapter Clamp This can be of a similar type as 3 (above), although certain products are designed to specifically work together i.e. A + B. 7. Standard Grade 8.8 Hex Bolt or Setscrew Loads The table beneath shows tensile and frictional load capabilities for a standard four bolt Girder Clamp using 4 bolts and 8 clamps at a 90 crossover angle. Lindapter is only too pleased to carry out all design work for individual connections free of charge based on the following details: Load per connection Size and type of both beams Angle of crossover Distance between beams Inclination of beams 6 7 Clamps Types A, B, BR, LR Type AF Bolt size M12 M16 M20 M24 M24 M24 Bolt grade Tensile / for 4 bolts kn ) Friction / for 4 bolts kn ) ) Torque Nm ) Factor of safety 3.2:1 2) Factor of safety 2:1 All loads are based on actual test data having a factor of safety for friction against slip and for tensile against ultimate failure (typically 5:1). Use of lower safety factor is not recommended. Approvals All approvals apply to Girder Clamps using types A and B only, in sizes from M12 to M24 Further information is available upon request. 10

11 Bolt Length / Tail Length / Installation Steelwork Fixings 1 Bolt length calculation for a standard Lindapter Girder Clamp, example shows Type A and B M20 Tail length The different tail length can be identified by a code of dimples underneath the clamps. To calculate the bolt length all parts the bolt will go through have to be added up. The next longer standard bolt length should be used. 0.5 bolt Ø as bolt protrusion 10 One dimple: tail length short (s) Height of nut 16 + Washer 3 + T of top clamp + Top section Two dimples: tail length medium (m) + Plate thickness 12 + Lower section 10 + T of lower clamp 10 Three dimples: tail length long (l ) = 93.5 Next standard bolt length = Correct installation of types A and B showing type A as an example Parallel flanges 90º <90º >90º Maximum tail length tolerance of -1mm (up to M16) and -1.5mm (M20, M24) before applying the torque is acceptable. Tapered flanges 90º <_5º 5-8º <90º On 6º and 8º slopes types A and B require a special tail length/packing combination which will allow the clamp to tilt back slightly (incorporated into the combination table on page 15). For applications above 8 please see types AF, LR and LS. 11

34 Loads and Specifications Steelwork Fixings 1 Loads and Specifications Reference is made throughout this catalogue to loads related to our product applications. Given loads are for boltgrade 8.8 unless otherwise stated. These are defined below. Should you have any difficulty in selecting the correct product for your needs, please contact us. Tensile Loading In tensile applications the load transmits a force parallel to the centre line of the bolt shank, hence applying a load to the contact point of the Lindapter. See product data tables for allowable tensile loads at varying bolt sizes. Combined Loads When the fixings are subject to more than one load condition, the resulting forces must be calculated to determine the product and bolt sizes required. Please contact Lindapter with your application. Frictional Loading The force is applied at 90 to the bolt shank. The point at which slip occurs depends upon the condition and finish of the steelwork, the coating of the Lindapter and the grade of bolt used. Slip is defined as the constant load at which relative movement between clamped components exceeds 0.1mm. Compression Loading Force here is applied direct to the supporting section rather than the Lindapter products. If, however, there is a gap between the surfaces being connected, the buckling strength of the supporting fabrication must be considered. Shear Loading The Safe Working Load of the assembly is determined by the bolt grade and diameter as the force is resisted by the cross sectional area of the bolt shanks. It is recommended that reference be made to the bolt manufacturers technical literature or the relevant structural steel design code to ascertain a Safe Working Load per bolt. Torque The recommended torque values stated in the product sections must be applied in order to achieve the stated Safe Working Loads. Any reduction in torques applied will lower the product Safe Working Load and is not recommended. 34

40 Cavity Fixings 2 Cavity Fixings In the late 1940 s Lindapter revolutionised the concept of blind fixing, or where limited access is available, with the development of the Lindibolt. Some time later, following the introduction and wide acceptance of hollow section steelwork, the range was expanded to include the Hollo-Bolt. Due to the continued development and expansion of SHS into the wide variety which is available today from square, rectangular, circular to oval this product group has also seen a rapid expansion in diameters, lengths, finishes, and head types finally culminating in the Design Councils Millennium Products Award for Innovation which the Hollo-Bolt attained in Following comprehensive testing the Hollo-Bolt is now included in the BCSA/SCI publication Joints in Steel Construction Simple Connections, more commonly known simply as the Green Book, as well as being approved by the Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik. The Hollo-Bolt is ideal for use on any steel structure eliminating the need for unsightly welding or strapping, installation is simple and quick requiring only the type of hand tools commonly available on site. Typical Hollo-Bolt applications include: Primary Steelwork Secondary Steelwork Bridges Cladding Balconies Towers and masts Staircases and handrails 40

64 Floor Fixings 5 Floor Fixings When designing the floor fixing range of products for chequer plate and both square and rectangular open bar grating Lindapter combined speed with ease of installation. None of the products require any site drilling and/or welding to be done and can easily be installed from above the flooring; this means no requirement for scaffold towers, access platforms or MEWP hire giving easier compliance with the onerous work at height regulations. Both the Floorfast & Grate-Fast are covered by Lloyds Register Type Approval in respect of their clamping force and resistance to loosening in areas subject to shock and vibration. Without a need for the issuing of hot work permits, they are particularly suited to applications where safety is of paramount importance such as in offshore and onshore petrochemical and processing industries although they are equally ideal for applications in all other industrial environments. 64
