- the invention also relates to a connection arrangement between prefabricated construction element comprising concrete and another construction element as defined in the preamble of independent claim 9
- Document ITVR 20 100 206 A1 discloses a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and a connection arrangement according to the preamble of claim 9.
- the object is to provide a method for mounting a prefabricated construction element comprising concrete to another construction element and a connection arrangement between prefabricated construction element comprising concrete and another construction element, which allows to open the connection between the prefabricated construction and the another construction element in such manner that the prefabricated construction element comprising concrete can easily be demounted and be reused so as to promote circular economy.
- connection arrangement between prefabricated construction element comprising concrete and another construction element of the invention is correspondingly characterized by the definitions of independent claim 9 .
- the prefabricated construction element comprising concrete can for example be any one of a prefabricated reinforced concrete column/pile/pillar, a prefabricated reinforced concrete beam and a prefabricated concrete wall element.
- Said another construction element can also be a prefabricated construction element comprising concrete for example a prefabricated reinforced concrete column/pile/pillar.
- said another construction element can be a cast-in-situ construction element comprising concrete such as a reinforced concrete foundation or a part belonging to a reinforced concrete foundation.
- the prefabricated construction element 1 comprising concrete can for example be any one of a prefabricated reinforced concrete column/pile/pillar, as illustrated in figures 1 to 3 , a prefabricated reinforced concrete beam, as illustrated in figure 7 , and a prefabricated concrete wall element, as illustrated in figures 4 to 6 .
- Said another construction element 2 can also be a prefabricated construction element 1 comprising concrete for example a prefabricated reinforced concrete column/pile/pillar, as illustrated in figure 7 .
- said another construction element 2 can be a cast-in-situ construction element comprising concrete such as a reinforced concrete foundation or a part belonging to a reinforced concrete foundation, as illustrated in figures 1 to 6 .
- the method comprises a connecting step for connecting the prefabricated construction element 1 by means of repeatably openable and closable mechanical connection means 3 to said another construction element 2 so that a joint 4 is formed between the prefabricated construction element 1 and said another construction element 2 and so that the joint 4 is at least partly limited by the prefabricated construction element 1 and said another construction element 2.
- the method comprises a grouting step for grouting the joint 4 by covering such as filling the joint 4 at least partly with grout 5 and allowing the grout 5 to harden.
- the method comprises a coating step for coating surfaces 6 of the prefabricated construction element 1 that is to be covered by grout 5 in said grouting step at least partly with separation means 7 such as with anti-adhesion means prior said grouting step.

- mechanical anti-adhesion means can for example be used an expanded steel sheet, a perforated steel sheet, a plate of polymer, a sheet of polymer, a film of polymer, a textile sheet, a fabric sheet, formwork liner, and wood such as coated plywood.
- An advantage that is achieved by using a perforated plate, sheet or a film as a separation means 7 is that the perforations allows for grout 5 to attach to the prefabricated construction element 1 through the separation means 7. This provides for a stronger connection between the grout 5 and the prefabricated construction element 1 while allowing for easy detaching of the prefabricated construction element 1 from the separation means 7 and from the grout 5.
- anti-adhesion substances such as fluid for example oil, cementitious retarder, or carbon be used as separation means 7.
- the coating step includes preferably, but not necessarily, providing for the coating step a separation means 7 that is a means separate from the prefabricated construction element 1, i.e. that does not form a part of the prefabricated construction element 1, and that is a means separate from said another construction element 2, i.e. that does not form a part of said another construction element 2.
- the separation means 7 is preferably, but not necessarily, arranged to at least partly follow an interface (not marked with a reference numeral) i.e. a connection surface between the grout 5 that is configured to cover the prefabricated construction element 1 in the joint 4 and the surfaces 6 of the prefabricated construction element 1.
- the method allows easy removal of the prefabricated construction element 1 from grouting without damaging the prefabricated construction element 1, because the grout 5 will not adhere to the surfaces 6 of the prefabricated construction element 1 because of the separation means 7.
- the coating step includes preferably, but not necessarily, additionally coating surfaces 6 of said another construction element 2 that is to be covered by grout 5 at least partly with separation means 7 such as with any alternative of the separation means 7 presented prior said grouting.
- the separation means 7 is preferably, but not necessarily, arranged to at least partly follow an interface (not marked with a reference numeral) i.e. a connection surface between the grout 5 that is configured to cover said another construction element 2 in the joint 4 and the surfaces 6 of said another construction element 2.

- the connection step includes arranging the anchor bolts 8 to penetrate openings 10 in the prefabricated construction element 1 so that the first nuts 9 are between said another construction element 2 and the prefabricated construction element 1 and a grouting space 11 is formed between said another construction element 2 and the prefabricated construction element 1.
- the connection step includes screwing second nuts 12 to the anchor bolts 8 to secure the prefabricated construction element 1 to the anchor bolts 8.
- a washer 17 is arranged at the anchor bolts 8 between the openings 10 and second nuts 12.
- the method includes preferably, but not necessarily, arranging in the connection step the anchor bolts 8 to penetrate openings 10 formed in metal plates 13 of connector elements 14 at least partly cast into the concrete of the prefabricated construction element 1.
- connector element 14 can for example be in the form of a column shoe, as illustrated in the embodiments shown in figures 1 to 3 , a beam shoe, as illustrated in the embodiment illustrated in figure 7 , or a wall shoe, as illustrated in the embodiments shown in figures 4 and 5 , depending on the form of the prefabricated construction element 1.
- connection step includes arranging the anchor bolts 8 to penetrate openings 10 in the prefabricated construction element 1 so that the anchor bolts 8 extend into a cavity 15 in the prefabricated construction element 1, and the connection step includes screwing said second nuts 12 to the anchor bolts 8 inside the cavities so that the second nuts 12 will be housed in the cavities.
- the method includes a filling step for filling the cavities at least partly with other material 16 than grout 5 prior said grouting step to at least partly prevent grout 5 from entering said cavities.
- At least one of mineral wool, gypsum, plaster and lime mortar is used as said other material 16 in the filling step. These materials are easier to remove than concrete or mortar so that the repeatably openable and closable mechanical connection means 3 can be accessed in the cavity 15 and be opened, as exemplified in figure 8 .
- the method can include providing the prefabricated construction element 1 with at least one of a projection formation 20 configured to project into grout 5 in the joint between the prefabricated construction element 1 and said another construction element 2 and a cavity formation 21 into which grout 5 from the joint between the prefabricated construction element 1 and said another construction element 2 is configured to project.

prefabricated construction element 1 by means of repeatably openable and closable mechanical connection means 3 to said anotherconstruction element 2 so that a joint 4 is formed between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2 and so that the joint 4 is at least partly limited by theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2. - The method comprises a grouting step for grouting the joint 4 by covering such as filling the joint 4 at least partly with
grout 5 and allowing thegrout 5 to harden. - The method comprises a coating step for
coating surfaces 6 of theprefabricated construction element 1 that is to be covered bygrout 5 in said grouting step at least partly with separation means 7 such as with anti-adhesion means prior said grouting step. - In the coating step can mechanical anti-adhesion means such as perforated or unperforated plates, sheets or films be used as separation means 7. As mechanical anti-adhesion means can for example be used an expanded steel sheet, a perforated steel sheet, a plate of polymer, a sheet of polymer, a film of polymer, a textile sheet, a fabric sheet, formwork liner, and wood such as coated plywood. An advantage that is achieved by using a perforated plate, sheet or a film as a separation means 7 is that the perforations allows for
grout 5 to attach to theprefabricated construction element 1 through the separation means 7. This provides for a stronger connection between thegrout 5 and theprefabricated construction element 1 while allowing for easy detaching of theprefabricated construction element 1 from the separation means 7 and from thegrout 5. - In the coating step can anti-adhesion substances such as fluid for example oil, cementitious retarder, or carbon be used as separation means 7.
- The coating step includes preferably, but not necessarily, providing for the coating step a separation means 7 that is a means separate from the
prefabricated construction element 1, i.e. that does not form a part of theprefabricated construction element 1, and that is a means separate from said anotherconstruction element 2, i.e. that does not form a part of said anotherconstruction element 2. - The separation means 7 is preferably, but not necessarily, arranged to at least partly follow an interface (not marked with a reference numeral) i.e. a connection surface between the
grout 5 that is configured to cover theprefabricated construction element 1 in the joint 4 and thesurfaces 6 of theprefabricated construction element 1. - The method allows easy removal of the
prefabricated construction element 1 from grouting without damaging theprefabricated construction element 1, because thegrout 5 will not adhere to thesurfaces 6 of theprefabricated construction element 1 because of the separation means 7. - The coating step includes preferably, but not necessarily, additionally
coating surfaces 6 of said anotherconstruction element 2 that is to be covered bygrout 5 at least partly with separation means 7 such as with any alternative of the separation means 7 presented prior said grouting. In such case, the separation means 7 is preferably, but not necessarily, arranged to at least partly follow an interface (not marked with a reference numeral) i.e. a connection surface between thegrout 5 that is configured to cover said anotherconstruction element 2 in the joint 4 and thesurfaces 6 of said anotherconstruction element 2. - The method allows easy removal of the from the said another
construction element 2 without damaging said anotherconstruction element 2, because thegrout 5 will not adhere to thesurfaces 6 of said anotherconstruction element 2 coated by separation means 7. - According to the invention, the connecting step includes, as illustrated in
figures 1 to 7 , providing repeatably openable and closable mechanical connection means 3 comprisinganchor bolts 8 extending from said anotherconstruction element 2.

The connection step includes arranging theanchor bolts 8 to penetrateopenings 10 in theprefabricated construction element 1 so that theanchor bolts 8 extend into acavity 15 in theprefabricated construction element 1, and the connection step includes screwing saidsecond nuts 12 to theanchor bolts 8 inside the cavities so that thesecond nuts 12 will be housed in the cavities. According to the invention, the method includes a filling step for filling the cavities at least partly withother material 16 thangrout 5 prior said grouting step to at least partly preventgrout 5 from entering said cavities. At least one of mineral wool, gypsum, plaster and lime mortar is used as saidother material 16 in the filling step. These materials are easier to remove than concrete or mortar so that the repeatably openable and closable mechanical connection means 3 can be accessed in thecavity 15 and be opened, as exemplified infigure 8 . - To increase the shear force transfer capacity between
grout 5 in the joint 4 between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2, while still creating an easily dismountable connection allowing reuse of a least theconstruction element 1, the method can include providing theprefabricated construction element 1 with at least one of aprojection formation 20 configured to project intogrout 5 in the joint between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2 and acavity formation 21 into whichgrout 5 from the joint between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2 is configured to project. - To increase the shear force transfer capacity between
grout 5 in the joint 4 between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2, while still creating an easily dismountable connection allowing reuse of a least theconstruction element 1, the method can include providing said anotherconstruction element 2 with at least one of aprojection formation 20 configured to project intogrout 5 in the joint between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2, and acavity formation 21 into whichgrout 5 from the joint between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2 is configured to project. - To increase the shear force transfer capacity between the
prefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2, while still creating an easily dismountable connection allowing reuse of a least theconstruction element 1, theconstruction element 1 can be provided with aformation 20 that extend into acavity 21 in thegrout 5 between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2, as illustrated infigure 2 . - To increase the shear force transfer capacity between the

prefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2 be increased, while still creating an easily dismountable connection allowing reuse of a least theconstruction element 1, by forming acavity 21 in thesurface 6 of theprefabricated construction element 1 so that thecavity 21 is configured to be filled with thegrout 5 cast between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2, as illustrated infigure 5 . - Alternatively can shear force transfer capacity between the
prefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2 be increased, while still creating an easily dismountable connection allowing reuse of a least theconstruction element 1, by forming acavity 21 both in thesurface 6 of theprefabricated construction element 1 and in thesurface 6 of said another construction element so that bothcavities 21 are configured to be filled with thegrout 5 cast between theprefabricated construction element 1 and said anotherconstruction element 2, as illustrated infigure 6 . - The

An example of such is Copra® anchoring coupler by Peikko Group. An advantage of this that this allows to remove the threaded bar from the threadedmuff 17 so that noanchor bolts 8 project from said anotherconstruction element 2 as illustrated infigures 11a to 11c . Infigures 11b and 11c aseparate tool 22 is screwed into the treaded muffs 17 to remove the treaded muffs 17 from the anotherconstruction element 2. - Next the connection arrangement between
prefabricated construction element 1 comprising concrete and anotherconstruction element 2 will be described in greater detail. - The
prefabricated construction element 1 comprising concrete can for example be any one of a prefabricated reinforced concrete column/pile/pillar, as illustrated infigures 1 to 3 , a prefabricated reinforced concrete beam, as illustrated infigure 7 , and a prefabricated concrete wall element, as illustrated infigures 4 to 6 . - Said another
