NELSON Studs

Updated NELSON Studs with addition of the supplier product code

Modified upper D in order to obtain correct head Ø in the model

Added
Added bolts FHC8.8 & 10.9 ZINGUE ISO 10642

Added bolts standards with EN DIN NF standards


Nota :
In case of Hight-Strength bolt combinations, use of additional washers and/or nuts is not permitted
Hence use of DUMMY_S washers standards and DUMMY_M nuts standards, which do not appear by default in France environment fastener lists
New standards bolts created following information of these sites :
Reyher Site : https://rio.reyher.de/fr/
Emile Maurin Site: https://fixation.emile-maurin.fr/fr/maurin-fixation/fixation-batiment-et-infrastructure/

BOLTE Studs

Added BOLTE Studs

HILTI Anchors

New versions and descriptions available

Modified anchors HSL4 & HSL4G

SPIT Anchors

Added diameters 12 and 14 for anchors SPIT TAPCON HFL XTREM
1.2.3 Shapes Catalog
Added
Added wahers, nuts and cap nuts

1.2.4 Rebars Catalog
Modified
The Undefined reinforcements have values by diameter on the tolerances and maximum curves
Warning : rebar_database.inp : Modification of reinforcement bending radius in accordance with the recommendations of NF A035-27 of 25 December 2015
The Eurocode authorizes shorter minimum lengths, based on design justification, which allows only the force present in the bar
This calculation is not carried out in the majority of design offices, which continue to apply fixed values allowing total anchorage of the bar
Mandrel lengths therefore remain unchanged from the previous version of the catalog, in conformity with BAEL requirements
In accordance with EC2 guidelines, the use of these mandrel radius values implies that the conditions of non-damage to the reinforcement and non-damage to the bar must also be verified
Added
Schöck Combar

Added Schöck Combar® glass fibre reinforcements
