Precast Handbook Concrete Construction Products BUILDING STRENGTH™ PRECAST HANDBOOK CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS Safety Information Improper Use of Concrete Accessories Can Cause Severe Injury or Death Read, understand and follow the information and instructions in this publication before using any of the Dayton Superior concrete accessories displayed herein. When in doubt about the proper use or installation of any Dayton Superior concrete accessory, immedi- ately contact the nearest Dayton Superior Service Center or Technical Service Department for clarification. See back cover for your nearest location. Dayton Superior products are intended for use by trained, qualified and experienced workers only. Misuse or lack of supervision and/or inspection can contrib- ute to serious accidents or deaths. Any application other than those shown in this publication should be carefully tested before use. The user of Dayton Superior products must evaluate the product application, determine the safe working load and control all field conditions to prevent applications of loads in excess of a product’s safe working load. Safety factors shown in this publication are approximate minimum values. The data used to develop safe working loads for products displayed in this publication are a combination of actual testing and/or other industry sources. Recommended safe working loads given for the products in this publication must never be exceeded. Worn Working Parts For safety, concrete accessories must be properly used and maintained. Concrete accessories shown in this publication may be subject to wear, overloading, corrosion, deformation, intentional alteration and other factors that may affect the device’s performance. All reusable accessories must be inspected regularly by the user to determine if they may be used at the rated safe working load or should be removed from service. The frequency of inspections depends upon factors such as (but not limited to) the amount of use, period of service and environment. It is the respon- sibility of the user to schedule accessory hardware inspections for wear and remove the hardware from service when wear is noted. Shop or Field Modification Welding can compromise a product’s safe working load value and cause hazardous situations. Knowledge of materials, heat treating and welding procedures is necessary for proper welding. Consult a local welding supply dealer for assistance in determining required welding procedures. Since Dayton Superior cannot control workmanship or conditions in which modifications are done, Dayton Superior cannot be responsible for any product altered in the field. Interchangeability Many concrete accessory products that Dayton Superior manufactures are designed as part of a system. Dayton Superior strongly discourages efforts to interchange products supplied by other manufacturers with components supplied by Dayton Superior. When used properly, and in accor- dance with published instructions, Dayton Superior products have proven to be among the best designed and safest in the industry. Used improp- erly or with incompatible components supplied by other manufacturers, Dayton Superior products or systems may be rendered unsafe. Installation WARNING 1. Dayton Superior Corporation products shall be installed and used only as indicated on the Dayton Superior Corporation installation guidelines and training materials. 2. Dayton Superior Corporation products must never be used for a purpose other than the purpose for which they were designed or in a manner that exceeds specific load ratings. 3. All instructions are to be completely followed to ensure proper and safe installation and performance 4. Any improper misuse, misapplication, installation, or other failure to follow Dayton Superior Corporation’s instruction may cause product malfunc- tion, property damage, serious bodily injury and death. THE CUSTOMER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FOLLOWING: 1. Conformance to all governing codes 2. Use of appropriate industry standard hardware 3. The integrity of structures to which the products are attached, including their capability to safely accept the loads imposed, as evaluated by a quali- fied engineer. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: All governing codes and regulations and those required by the job site must be observed. Always use appropriate safety equipment Design Changes Dayton Superior reserves the right to change product designs, rated loads and product dimensions at any time without prior notice.

  • A Review of Structural Failures in Ireland
    A Review of Structural Failures in Ireland Trinity College Dublin Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering A Thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Science by Ian James Duckenfield June 2016 Declaration I declare that this thesis has not been submitted as an exercise for a degree at this or any other University and that it is entirely my own work. I agree to deposit this thesis in the University’s open access institutional repository or allow the Library to do so on my behalf, subject to Irish Copyright Legislation and Trinity College Library conditions of use and acknowledgement. Signed i Abstract A Review of Structural Failures in Ireland Ian James Duckenfield Many technical papers have been written and presented to the structural engineering community in Ireland giving details of major projects successfully completed. These projects are on time and under budget. Far more interesting to practising engineers are the cases where things go wrong, and in some cases very badly wrong. Unfortunately the lessons learnt in such cases are hidden from view. No engineer wants to admit that he made an error which now, with the benefit of hindsight, is obvious. The risks of structural failures are extremely low, especially when compared to activities such as car driving and smoking. Nevertheless lives have been lost and life-altering injuries sustained by structural collapses in Ireland. The author has over 40 years of structural design experience and has been collecting examples of failures and near misses. This includes cases where the author acted as an expert witness relating to failures.

  • Connections for Architectural Precast Concrete
    U C E D A T I G O N N I U N I T N O C Connections for Architectural Precast Concrete Knife Plate Tie-Down Plate Shims CONNECTIONS FOR ARCHITECTURAL PRECAST CONCRETE Connections are a significant design consideration that influences safety, performance, and economy of ar- chitectural precast concrete enclosure systems. Many different connection details may be required to accom- modate the multitude of sizes and shapes of precast concrete units and varying support conditions. The purpose of this article is to provide connection design concepts and other considerations to Architects. While connection design is normally delegated to the precast concrete supplier, design criteria and load paths must be specified by the Structural Engineer of Record (SER) and the Architect must be aware of the impact of connections on final detailing. Whether an architectural precast concrete element is used in a loadbearing or a non-loadbearing application, various forces must be considered in connection design. In non-loadbearing applications, a cladding panel must resist its self weight and all other appropriate forces and loads, such as seismic, wind, snow, restraint of volume changes and effects of support system movement, construction loads, loads from adjacent materials, and any other specified loads. These loads and forces are transferred by the architectural precast concrete el- ement through connections to supporting structure. If a panel is loadbearing, then in addition to the above, some connections must also resist and transfer dead and live loads imposed on it by floor and roof elements. A major advantage of precast concrete construction is rapid installation.
