HALFEN HSC Stud Connectors are an innovative and economical
alternative to complicated reinforcement configurations associated
with concrete corbels and frame corner connections.
This system provides the full capacity of reinforcement bars with
extremely small embedment lengths. The HALFEN HSC Stud Connector
offers time and cost savings while providing a high level of
safety.
The system is available as double headed bar called HSC-HD, or as a
set comprised of the HSC-S coupler and HSC-A threaded bar.
Features:
Innovative anchor head to reduce embedment
lengths
Available as continuous reinforcement or with threaded
coupler
High load capacity
Extensive product range
Engineering support available
Applicable for dynamic loads
Advantages in Planning and Design
Approved for predominantly static and predominantly non-static
loads
Standard elements held in stock
HALFEN engineering services and consulting for your individual
needs are always provided
High levels of reinforcement feasible by laying head to head
and multi-layer arrangement
Flexible and Economical
Multiple combinations with the HBS-05 screw connection
Separate hooped support of columns and corbels (bracket does
not cross the joint)
Special tools not required for installation, high application
security--a visual inspection is sufficient
Minimum thread slip with a tapered thread
Possible Applications:
Corbel
Frame corner
Beam support
Slab support
Stepped support
Frame corner under positive moment resistance
Benefits:
Reduced reinforcement density - lower construction costs
Reduced reinforcement density - improves concrete quality
Simplifies formwork design
Easier transport of precast columns - on site concreting of
corbels
No special tools required when using threaded coupler
Ability to transfer high loads into the concrete structure
