Application

Steel stirrup connections

Where a suitable steel stirrup or reinforcing-bar arrangement is already available, NON-DRILL has a connection that can use it as part of an Edge Protection system without drilling into the concrete. This gives the project another option when a conventional lifting-anchor connection is not present. The bar size, position, condition and the loads on the complete handrail arrangement need to be checked before that option is selected.

The starting point

Use the connection already available, or consider it early.

NON-DRILL begins with the structure, the anchor or fixing point and the Edge Protection requirement. The product is then matched to the application rather than forcing the project into a generic arrangement.

01

Existing connection

Identify what is already cast into or available on the structure and review the relevant NON-DRILL product.

02

Design-stage connection

If the project is early enough, consider the position and purpose of the connection before manufacture or construction.

What to establish

Questions for the first project conversation.

01What steel stirrup is available?

02Where is it positioned?

03What Edge Protection arrangement is required?

Common questions

What project teams need to know first.

Can NON-DRILL be considered for Steel stirrup connections?

Where a suitable steel stirrup or reinforcing-bar arrangement is already available, NON-DRILL has a connection that can use it as part of an Edge Protection system without drilling into the concrete. This gives the project another option when a conventional lifting-anchor connection is not present. The bar size, position, condition and the loads on the complete handrail arrangement need to be checked before that option is selected. The available anchor, structure and complete Edge Protection arrangement must be reviewed for the project.

Does the anchor need to be planned into the design?

Not necessarily. Existing anchors are the most common starting point. Where the project is still at design stage, connection points can also be considered early.

What should I send for an initial review?

Send drawings, anchor details, dimensions, clear photographs, the project stage and a description of the Edge Protection requirement.
