Screwed-sleeve joints and couplers

The catalogs provided by the Coupler, Thread, Connecting Bar tool in the Bar Reinforcement module have been revised and expanded. Screwed-sleeve joints and couplers of eight manufacturers are now available for selection.

Advanced SAH catalog

We added couplers and end anchorage of the SAS 670 system to the catalog of Stahlwerk Annahütte.

The article catalog currently includes standard couplers of the TR3003 type, hexagonal couplers of the TR3010 type, reducing couplers of the TR3102 type, tensioning couplers of the TR3014 type, contact couplers of the TR3006 type, threaded couplers of the TR3087 type, welded couplers of the TR3022 type and anchors of the TR2073 type. You define the mode of stressing in accordance with the selected coupler. If you do not define anything, the program uses tensile stress or alternating stress as the basis for calculations.

BARON-C - ancotech

The new Ancotech component catalog for BARON®-C screwed-sleeve joints is a special collection of screwed-sleeve joints to be used in conjunction with Allplan in Switzerland. BARON®-C is a screw-in reinforcement system for use throughout the construction industry, such as building construction, commercial construction, tunnel construction and bridge construction. BARON®-C screw-in reinforcement is equipped with a metric parallel thread that is designed in such a way that it is always stronger than the reinforcing bar.

The article catalog currently includes standard sleeves of type W, anchor sleeves of type A, reduction sleeves of types F and W, end anchorage sleeves of types AF and E and position sleeves of type P1.

Ancon, ReidBar, Dextra

The component catalogs of Ancon Building Products, Reid™ and Dextra Asia Co., Ltd. Are mainly used in England, Australia and Asia. Therefore, the catalogs are only available in English.

Depending on the system, the article catalogs contain different types of screwed-sleeve joints and couplers. You can find detailed information on these types in the Allplan help.

Notes on installing

When you select the Custom setup type for upgrading, the manufacturer catalogs will not be selected automatically; therefore, they will not be updated either. Although new manufacturers will be entered, their data will not be copied. To get the current catalog data when upgrading, select the Current setup type, scroll down to Manufacturer-specific office data and select the SAH, ancotech, Ancon, ReidBar and Dextra entries. As an alternative, select the Default setup type.
