HIT Connections steel to concrete
Steel balconies, canopies, and solar shading systems are typically connected to reinforced concrete components. Due to the high thermal conductivity of steel, effective thermal separation at these connection points is essential. Without it, thermal bridges can occur, leading to increased energy consumption and potential structural damage from condensation and mould.
Halfen HIT Insulated Connections
Solutions and Applications Thermal insulation connections for balconies and structural components
Application areas
Product portfolio
At the core of each element is a statically effective system of compression, tension, and shear bars, securely anchored on-site into load-bearing concrete components. On the balcony (exterior) side, the system incorporates tension and compression rods with metric connection threads for reliable load transfer. An angled slotted bracket allows fl exible height adjustment of connected components. The load-bearing elements are fully enclosed in noncombustible mineral wool insulation, ensuring outstanding thermal separation. A durable housing encases the insulation, providing protection against mechanical damage and weather exposure.
