Limits for the height to calculate cast-in nuts
Design (iWall) Parameters of reinforcement and fixtures + 'Cast-in nuts' dialog box
All cast-in nuts that fulfill a criterion are created. Make sure therefore the limits are entered correctly. Depending on how you enter the heights, the program returns the following results:
- In the case of entries sequenced
"From height" "To height" and "Height" (for installation)
1 0 3 2
2 3 5 4
3 5 7 6
4 7 999 7.5
, the cast-in nuts will only ever be used for a specific area. From >0 m – ≤3 m = entry 1; from >3 m – ≤5 m = entry 2 and so on.
Keep in mind that the program will not install a cast-in nut if the wall height ranges from 3 m to 4 m. So, check that the entries in the table are consistent. - If, however, you define a sequence
"From height" "To height" "Height" (for installation)
1 0 3 2
2 2 5 3.5
3 4 7 4.2
4 7 999 7.5
and you enter an element that is 4.1 m high, the program will create all anchors within the defined ranges from >2 m – ≤5 m and >4 m – ≤7 m. The cast-in nut of the height ranging from >4 – ≤7 m is beyond the element height at 4.2 m and cannot be created.
But if the element is 8 m high, the program will create all cast-in nuts within the defined range from >7 m – ≤999 m. - If the cast-in nut heights are defined as follows, the cast-in nuts are created as follows:
'From height' 'To height' 'Height' (for installation)
1 0 12 2
2 0 12 4
3 0 12 6
4 0 12 6.2
5 0 12 8
6 0 12 10
If the element is 3.8 m high, the program will create the cast-in nuts at 2 m only. If the element is 4.20 m high, the program will create the cast-in nuts at 2 m and 4 m. If the element is 6.5 m high, the program will create the cast-in nuts at 2 m, 4 m, 6 m and 6.2 m and so on.
