Punching shear reinforcement
HALFEN Punching shear reinforcement from Leviat allows economical and reliable production of flat reinforced concrete slabs and foundations. Our punching shear reinforcement can be installed in precast and in semi-precast elements.

HALFEN HDB Shear rail
The HDB elements with double headed studs, welded to a spacer bar, are used as punching shear reinforcement in concrete slabs and foundations. HALFEN HDB Shear rails are supplied as system elements with 4 to 10 double headed studs and as 2-stud and 3-stud elements, which can be combined as required.
HDB-Z Punching shear reinforcement for foundation slabs and pad foundations
The HALFEN HDB-Z Punching shear reinforcement now allows an even more efficient design of foundation slabs and pad foundations against punching shear failure. Due to the specially designed shape and multiple low-slip anchorage points in the concrete, a component reinforced with HDB-Z has up to double the load-bearing capacity than a foundation with no punching shear reinforcement.
HDB Shear rail
- Higher load capacity than conventional stirrup reinforcement
- HDB is also suitable for use in semi-precast elements
- Standardized delivery program with short delivery times, standard elements are available from stock
- Efficient and user-friendly software
- Simple and quick installation even after the upper reinforcement has been installed
- Reduction in construction time
HDB-Z Punching shear reinforcement for foundations
- Height reduction of in-situ cast concrete and precast foundation elements
- Savings in excavation, in construction, in material and in time
- Easy installation between the reinforcement layers
- Stays firmly fixed in the formwork prior to pouring the concrete
