Definitions

  • This invention relates to formwork ties for use in the casting of concrete. Such ties are used to support the formwork in place and to restrain wet concrete loads on the formwork caused by hydrostatic pressure in the wet concrete or the dead load of the concrete, or a combination of both.
  • a conventional system which is still used, comprises a tensile tie rod having, for wall construction, a spacer, or cone, threadedly connected or welded to each end.
  • the spacers or cones abut the inner surfaces of the formwork members and hold them in the desired spaced apart relationship to define the wall thickness.
  • Retaining bolts or threaded rods with plane washers and nuts or clamps are then screwed into the cones from outside the formwork members to restrain the members from outward movement under the concrete loads mentioned above.
  • the formwork is removed, and, if threadedly connected to the tie rod, the cones may also be extracted from the concrete.
  • This conventional system has a number of inherent disadvantages in operation, a main one of which is the difficulty of effecting registry of the retaining bolts and cones at the stage of erection of the formwork. Access to the inner faces of the formwork is required.
  • This problem was resolved by a further prior art system, sometimes known as the "she bolt”system. This involved a tie rod threaded at both ends as before but to each end is threadedly connected a she bolt.
  • Such bolts comprise a tapered shank portion adjacent the tie rod, the remainder or part of the remainder of the shank being threaded, for example with an Acme or like thready and having a squared outer end or other provision at the larger end of the tapered shank portion for fitting a spanner to rotate the she bolt relative to the tie rod.
  • the she bolts are connected at each end to the tie rod and the assembly is then inserted, from one side only be it noted, through registering apertures in the formwork members. Clamps are then applied over the protruding threaded ends of the she bolts and abuttingly engaged with the outer faces of the formwork members or waling if provided.
  • the clamps may be formed with an internal thread to engage the she bolts, or may include a nut held captive but rotatable thereon.
  • the clamps are removed and the she bolts removed from the tie rod using a spanner or wrench on the squared ends or backs of tapered shanks thereof.
  • the tie rod may be lost in the concrete.
  • the invention provides a formwork tie comprising a tie rod threadedly engaged with the smaller end of an elongate tapered member with whose other end is threadedly engaged a connecting rod adapted to threadedly receive a formwork clamp, means being provided for securing the connecting rod and tapered member against relative rotation, the tie rod and connecting rod being threaded along their lengths and being provided with longitudinally extending engagement means whereby the rods may be lockingly gripped for manual rotation.
  • the longitudinal engagement means may also serve for the locking connection to the rod of other components of the system.
  • the invention represents a radical departure from the previously known systems since the provision of the tapered member and securing means as aforesaid enables the tie rod and connecting rod to be cut on site to the desired lengths from standard lengths of rod stock, threaded and provided with said engagement means continuously along their lengths.
  • the tie In its assembled state, the tie functions in substantially exactly the same manner as the previously known she bolt tie, but is not subject to the inefficiencies mentioned above.
  • the combination of tapered member and connecting rod effectively forms a she bolt, and this may be sized on site as required.
  • the connecting rod to form the she bolt may be cut on si,te to the desired length from the standard stock. This avoids the problem of having to plan and order she bolts of suitable lengths well in advance, and imparts flexibility to the system so that any last minute changes in or corrections to the building specification do not involve the urgent supply of further she bolts.
  • the invention provides a method of making a formwork tie comprising cutting a connecting rod from a length of rod stock, such stock being continuously threaded and formed with longitudinally extending engagement means whereby the rod may be lockingly gripped for manual rotation, threadedly engaging the connectinq rod with the larger end of an elongate tapered member, providing means for securing the connecting rod and tapered member against relative rotation thus effectively forming a she bolt, repeating the process to provide a further she-bolt, cutting a tie rod from the or a further length of said stock, threadedly engaging the tie rod with the smaller ends of the tapered member of the she bolts and providing formwork clamps to be threadedly engaged on the connecting rods of the she bolts.
  • the invention provides a system of fabricating formwork ties comprising cutting tie rods and connecting rods from a length of rod stock, such stock being continuously threaded and formed with longitudinally extending engagement means whereby the rod may be lockingly gripped for manual rotation, and interconnecting the tie rods and connecting rods by threaded engagement with respective ends of a tapered member, providing means at the larger end of the tapered member for securing it against rotation relative to the connecting rod, and threadedly engaging formwork clamps with respective connecting rods.
  • the longitudinally extending engagement means may comprise one or more flat sides formed on the rod stock suitably sized for the operational purpose of their design. Two opposed flat sides would preferably be provided to enable the rods to be rotated. by means of a spanner or like wrench. In a preferred embodiment however one or more, preferably two longitudinal slots are formed in the rods. Where two slots are provided, these may be diametrically opposed. A suitable tool will then be provided with a key or keys for engagement in the slot(s) to be able to rotate the rod. In both cases, i.e. flats or slots, it should be noted that the rods may be drivingly engaged by the appropriate rotating tool at any point along their length. Furthermore a flat or slot as aforesaid affords a convenient location for stamping on the rod information regarding its tensile strength, safe working load etc. This may be advisable for recognition purposes when different types of stock are used as the purpose requires.
  • the rotational fixing of the connecting rod to the tapered member effectively creates a she bolt.
  • a suitable tool may be engaged with the exposed end of the connecting rod and the rod rotated so as to disengage the tapered member from the tie rod.
  • the said securing means may take any one of a number of forms. Where the rods have one or more longitudinal slots, the securing means can comprise a key engaging in a said slot and in a locating groove formed in the tapered member. Such a key may be held in its locating slot by a locknut engaged with the rod.
  • the slots may be of any cross section, but semi-circular is presently preferred.
  • the keys may be substantially cylindrical, which is easy to manufacture, and easy to insert in their receiving bores.
  • the keys may be arranged to protrude from their bores so that their ends may be engaged for removal.
  • a particularly convenient way of arranging this is to provide an annular groove at the end of the key for engagement by the edge of a tool, or a fingernail.
  • a plurality of locating grooves may be provided, two being preferable. The disposition of said two grooves at a 90° radial separation will afford four relative radial locking positions for a two diametrically opposed slot rod.
  • one or more securing lugs may be used.
  • the system may also be supplied with coupling members comprising a rod or tube with an internal thread at each end adapted to receive a length of said stock in threaded engagement.
  • the coupling members may also be provided at one or both ends with relative rotation securing means as discussed hereinbefore. Thus they may be used to interconnect parts of a connecting rod as well as those of a tie rod.
  • she bolts of any desired lengths may be fabricated as described above and if necessary longer than the standard stock rod described above by coupling whole or parts of such rod stock with said coupling members. She bolts fabricated as described above may be retained for use in those lengths fabricated or if desired taken apart so that their constituent parts may be used for such or other configurations.
  • Two such she bolts fabricated as above may be attached at each end of a formwork tie by threadedly engaging their elongated tapered ends at each end of such tie, where such tie may be any length of stock rod as used for the fabrication of she bolts and where such a length of tie as required may be one single length or fabricated out of two or more lengths of stock rods used for she bolts and coupled together with coupling members as described above and where parts or the whole of these ties may be rod from dismantled she bolts.
  • Two she bolts connected with a formwork tie at their elongate tapered ends and with threadedly engaged clamps at the other ends may constitute the entire formwork tie system.
  • a distinct advantage which clearly demonstrates the versatility of the system is the adaptation of the system with the same components as described above to its use as a cone spacer formwork tie system with the advantages of the cone spacer system over the she bolt formwork tie system.
  • the advantage of the she bolt formwork tie system over the cone spacer formwork tie system in that it offers the facility to assemble the formwork tie to' the formwork by offering the completely assembled parts of the tie assembly including one of the external clamps from one side only through registering apertures in the formwork is inherent of the disadvantage of the she bolt system in that it does not space or hold firmly apart at a specific distance apart the formwork at the position of the tie.
  • the tapered members which when locked to a length of stock rod become the tapered ends of she bolts may be used as the cone spacers in a cone spacer tie system configuration. Therefore the system proposed according to the invention is designed in such a manner as to offer the user a choice for its use as either a she bolt or a cone spacer formwork tie system at will and without any additions or modifications to the minimum essential standard components for its use as a she bolt system. In other words , the system proposed is designed in such a manner that it may be looked upon as a cone spacer formwork tie system which may be converted easily and at will to a she bolt formwork tie system purely by locking the tapered member to the connecting rod with the means provided.
  • the clamping members may be of convenient design.
  • the clamping member may be prodived with a fixed threaded bore for engaging the connecting rod such that rotation of the whole member is required for tightening or removal.
  • clamping members of the kind incorporating a rotatable but captive nut may be employed, where rotation of the main body of the clamp is not required.
  • the invention provides a formwork clamp comprising a main clamp body having a part-spherical socket formed therein, a rod engaging member comprising an at least part-spherical body captively received in the socket for universal movement therein, said member including a threaded bore for threadedly receiving a rod therein, engagement means whereby the member may be lockingly gripped for manual rotation, and first locking means whereby the member may be fastened to the rod, said clamp body including second locking means adapted to prevent axial rotation of the member but permit pivoting thereof about a transverse axis.
  • the engagement means may most conveniently comprise a nut portion integral with or fixed to said member.
  • the first locking means may comprise a transversely disposed screw adapted to engage a flat or longitudinal slot formed in the rod.
  • the second locking means may comprise a further transversely disposed screw engaged in the clamp body and adapted to engage in an at least part-circumferential groove formed in the part-spherical body and lying in the plane of the axis of the threaded bore.
  • Such a clamp thus incorporates a plurality of selectable functions.
  • the clamp With the second locking means engaged, the clamp performs substantially as a fixed clamp wherein the entire clamp body is rotated to effect tightening. Release of the second locking means enables the rod engaging member to be rotated relative to the clamp body for example by a spanner or other wrench to achieve a greater tightening force. Engagement of the first locking means with the rod enables the clamp to be used as the rigid abutment of a formwork jack.
  • the ball and socket embodiment in the clamp design allows the axis of the rod to take up a position other ! than perpendicular to the plane of the face of the clamp and depending on the allowable deviation from the perpendicular governed by design parameters would partly or wholly eliminate the use of simple or compound wedge members as frequently used between the clamp face and the member on which this face abuts.
  • the tapered member 1 comprises a steel rod having a threaded bore 2 extending throughout its length, although separate blind threaded bores at its respective ends could be provided instead if desired.
  • a pair of diametrically opposed radial grooves 3 of semi-circular cross section are machined in the member. These may be machined out of the threaded bore, or may be formed by first drilling opposed blind bores in the larger end of the tapered member 1 before machining out the central bore.
  • the rod stock shown as 4 combines with the tapered member 1 to form a she bolt.
  • This stock will be supplied to the site in standard lengths in an appropriate quantity and then cut to size as required by the formwork dimensions.
  • the rod 4 is a steel rod formed with an external rolled thread. Such rolling of the thread is expected to be the most economical way of producing the stock, but an Acme or similar or other thread could instead be used if desired.
  • the rod 4 is also formed with a pair of diametrically opposed longitudinal slots 5 again of semi circular cross section, and of substantially the same radius as that of the grooves 3.
  • the tapered member 1 is threadedly engaged with a length of connecting rod 4 to a sufficient depth, and the slots 5 and grooves 3 are aligned.
  • a key 6 is inserted in each bore so formed, and it will be seen that the length of the keys is such that their endsprotrude from the receiving bores when pushed fully home. This is to facilitate removal of the keys when dismounting, whereby the edge of a tool may be engaged in an annular groove 7 formed at the ends of the keys to draw the'keys out.
  • the she bolt assembly is completed by a lock nut 8 which is screwed up to engage the larger end of the tapered member, the nut being provided with a cavity 9 to receive the protruding ends of the keys 6.
  • the she bolt thus assembled may now be used in the conventional way, it being noted that a further length of the same rod stock is cut to provide the tie rod 10, which will be lost in the cured concrete.
  • the formwork consisting of panels 11, walings 12 and soldiers 13 is erected in the usual way and supported by an array of she bolt/tie rod assemblies with clamps 14 threadedly engaged over the ends of the exposed rods to abut the soliders 13.
  • the locknuts which are abutting the larger ends of the tapered members 1 can be unscrewed to abut the inner faces of the soldiers 13 by the intermediary of split washers aterally engaged over the she bolts assembly, and thus provide a spacing function in the manner of known cone spacers.
  • Disassembly of the formwork is simple. Once the clamps 14 are removed the exposed rod is engaged by a tool (not shown) which has operative parts which engage in the longitudinal slots 5. The engagement of tool and rod may be anywhere along its length and permits the rod to be manually rotated to withdraw the tapered member from the concrete, since it is locked onto the rod by the keys 6.
  • the she bolt may now be used again, or may be disassembled for storage. Used rods may be connected together to form a desired new length by means of connecting members 15 which are provided with internal grooves for locking in the same way as the tapered members.
  • a novel clamp which may be used with the formwork tie already described, or may indeed be used with existing she bolts or connecting rods, is shown in Fig.4. It comprises a cast main clamp body 16 formed with a part-spherical socket 17. In this socket is captively received for universal swivelling a rod engaging member 18 comprising a substantially spherical body having an integral nut portion 19 formed therewith. Threadedly received in the member 18 (the threaded engagement may only be with nut portion 19) is a grooved threaded rod 21 as described previously. A radially disposed grub screw 20 is engaged in the nut portion 19, the inner end of which is arranged to be received in the groove 22 to lock member 18 to the rod.
  • a second grub screw 23 is threaded into the clamp body 16, whose inner end is adapted to be received in a peripheral groove 24 formed in the spherical body.
  • the clamp body can pivot in all directions with respect to the rod 21.
  • the clamp body With grub screw 20 engaged the clamp body is fixed in position on the rod and so may be used as the fixed abutment of a formwork jack, able to pivot in all directions to attain the desired orientation. Its ability to pivot is restricted by engagement of the grub screw 23 in the groove 24 which restricts the pivoting to a single plane and prevents axial rotation of the body 18.
  • the supply to a construction site of means for putting the invention into effect will at the same time provide materials for other functions, and the versatility of the material is such that it may be used on site for such other functions only.
  • the stock rod may be used for other purposes, for example as concrete reinforcement, or it can be cut up and used to make general purpose or special bolts.
  • the use of the stock rod as reinforcement in view of its continuous thread will lend itself particularly well in applications where end to end coupling of the reinforcement is required using said couplers and lock nuts and keys if necessary and will provide adequate bond strength with the surrounding concrete.
  • the longitudinal flats or slots will in this case provide an engagement with the cured concrete which will be of substantial torsional resistance.
