Precast
Typical Applications
Beam Connections
In horizontal applications the Groutec sleeve is installed in the top element, and the connection is achieved by injecting the grout through the inlet pipe.
Column Connection
In vertical applications the Groutec sleeve is installed in the top element, and the connection is achieved by injecting the grout through the inlet pipe.
Wall Connection
Connection between precast wall and floor panels in either vertical or horizontal positions.
Our Solutions
The Full Tolerance Precast Splice
Groutec L is a mechanical splicing designed for the connection of precast elements.
Each Groutec L sleeve features a threaded end for the connection to reinforcement bars at the precast factory and a wide body allowing for more misalignment tolerance for the connection of two precast elements at the site.
Groutec L is designed and manufactured in compliance with Eurocode 2, BS8110, ISO 15835, ACI 318 type 2, and AASHTO code requirements
Groutec L
Large
tolerance
Allows connection of continuation
bars that are not perfectly aligned:
Misalignments of up to 12mm for small bars (Ø12-Ø20),
up to 20 mm for medium bars (Ø25),
and up to 25 mm for large bars (Ø28-Ø40) can be accommodated.
Top performance in a slim design
Groutec S is a mechanical splicing designed for the connection of precast elements.
Each Groutec sleeve features a threaded end used for the connection to reinforcement at the precast factory and a cavity to perform a grout connection at the site.
Groutec S is designed and manufactured in compliance with Eurocode 2, BS 8110, ACI 318, IBC, and AASHTO.
Groutec S
Slim outside
diameter
Allows precasters to create slim columns and wall panels.
Your grout consumption and preparation time will also be significantly reduced.
Fully-grouted mechanical splicing system
Groutec F allows the connection of two rebars without the need of any threading procedure.
Groutec F is a mechanical splicing system specially designed for the connection of precast concrete elements. It is designed and manufactured in compliance with Eurocode 2, ISO 15835, ACI 318 type 2, IS16172, and AASHTO code requirements.
Groutec F
Fully
grouted
Allows precasters to create slim columns and wall panels.
No bar end preparation required.
Small splice, top performance
The Groutec P model has been designed for thin wall and beam applications where there is limited or no space to use a thicker coupler.
It is compliant with ACI 318 type 2 and AC 133 and has proven to meet the seismic requirements of ISO15835:2018.
Applications include:
Beam to Column Connection
Column to Column Connection
Wall to Wall connection
Pile Cage connection
Groutec P
Positional
Spice
Designed for wet connections of precast elements either horizontally or vertically and the connection of pile cages.
The ultimate concrete wall connector.
TieTec is a precast concrete sandwich panel connector that combines the mechanical properties and the thermal efficiency of ASTEC Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymers (GFRP) bars.
The use of TieTec is an innovative way to produce precast sandwich panels in a faster and more economical way compared to other methods.
