19.02.2020 - HALFEN HIT steel to concrete connector
Steel structures, steel balconies, canopies or shading systems are
often connected to reinforced concrete elements. Steel’s high
thermal conductivity requires an efficient thermal separation in
the connection to minimize thermal bridges, to reduce the higher
energy consump-tion, and to prevent condensation damage to the
structure.
HALFEN HIT Insulation connections for steel-to-concrete application reduce thermal bridges to a minimum with high loads transfer capability. They consist of an insulation material with a steel rebar system for reliable transfer of the loads.

balcony together; each on their own sun lounger. Also suitable for
inspired architecture!
Thanks to the intelligent reinforcement layout, installation of the HIT-MVXL elements is both safe and quick.
Thanks to the intelligent reinforcement layout, installation of the HIT-MVXL elements is both safe and quick.
- The main slab reinforcement can be laid quickly and safely, as there are no interfering pressure bars at the bottom of the HIT-MVXL elements. Our smart, red CSBearings assume this function.
- Also on the balcony side on-site reinforcement is quickly added. The HIT bars are arranged here in one layer.
- And finally, the new HALFEN HIT-MVXL is perfectly suited for reliable transfer of bending moments and shear forces with good thermal insulation.
- Highly loaded or large cantilevered balcony slabs

09.09.2019 - New software HEK 1.00 for precast connections
The new design software for HALFEN HEK precast connections is now
available for download.
Conventional precast concrete connections with e.g. flexible loops or re-bent reinforcing bars must be grouted in the connection joint. They are therefore not fully load-bearing immediately after assembly.
The "dry" HALFEN HEK Precast concrete connections do not require mortaring of the connection joint and thus achieve a considerable reduction in assembly effort and time.
In order to be able to quickly and effectively calculate these approved bolted connections, HALFEN again provides one of its proven design programs.
After a minimum number of entries, the user receives either a detailed, verifiable calculation or a short printout, both with a detailed representation of the selected connection.

14.01.2019 - New HVG VERSOGRID Installation grid
The versatile fixing system
Whether in exhibition halls, train stations and airports or other large indoor venues with fluctuating public traffic, suspension systems must be designed for maximum flexibility and adaptability. Roof and ceiling elements — beams, girders, existing building services or unevenness in the main building structure — often make installation difficult when large display screens or panels, loudspeakers or spotlights or other objects and paraphernalia need to be installed.
HALFEN VERSOGRID provides an innovative solution: The installation grid creates a level plane below concrete roofs and steel girder structures —
requires minimal time and installation work.
The individual components with a weight of only 5.5 kg/m are connected and secured without requiring any tools. The double slot profile allows load-bearing elements to be fixed under the grid using suspension ring bolts, and cable ducts or other media supply components to be fixed on top of the grid structure. Individual profile elements are easily and quickly removed and replaced. This allows necessary repairs, e.g. to media supply lines to be carried out quickly and efficiently. The large selection of RAL colours for the powder coating also ensures a unique and overall very aesthetic design.
