    General installation instructions

    for the approved VSSlim BoxSystem and VSPlus Box System

    Application notesThe PFEIFER VSSlim Box and VSPlus Box Systems are suitable for theconnection of steel reinforced concrete precast walls of concrete qualityC30/37 and better. The components of the system are the VSSlim Box/PlusBox and the corresponding VSPAGELgrout (Figure 1). The system is onlythis effective if used in this combination.

    The VS-Slim/Plus-Box can be used for connections according toFigures 2 5.

    The wall connection is durable from wall thicknesses of d = 10 cm (VS SlimBox) and d = 14 cm (VSPlus Box) for influences from all three directions(3D)and for influences from mainly predominantly static loads (Fig. 7). Theminimum joint geometry is shown in Fig. 6.

    With regard to this, please also observe the complementary instructions in thetechnical approval.

    DimensioningThe concrete precast parts of steel-reinforced concrete to be joined mustbe dimensioned by the responsibledesigner according to DIN EN 1992-1-1in a minimum concrete quality ofC30/37. Connections with the VSSlimBox/Plus Box System are consideredas reinforced joint with design resist-ances for tensile and transverse forces.Appropriate design resistances are list-ed in Tables 1 and 2. For dimensioning

    the connection, the evidence of com-pliance for each load direction must

    then be conducted individually. It must

    be noted that, in addition to the tensileforce acting from outside, the tensileforces resulting from the acting trans-verse forces must also be taken intoaccount.

    If no external tensile force should beapplied, a simplified analysis via aninteraction diagram (Figure 8) inaccordance with the approval can beused. The acting expansion forcesthen need to be validated.

    Crack widths due to constraint forcesmust be limited (DIN EN 1992-1-1).

    Deflection of the wire rope

    In case of thin elements a deflection of the wire rope in the precast elementis possible if the VSSlim Box System is used.Please find further information about minimum thickness and additionalreinforcement in the approval for the VS Slim Box System.A deflection of the wire rope in our VSPlus Box System is not permitted.

    ReinforcementA reinforcement (Figs. 6 and 9) in thereinforced concrete precast part mustbe used for the VSSlim Box/PlusBox Systems. If a corresponding rein-forcement is already provided for oth-

    er static reasons, this can be takeninto account.

    Stirrup reinforcement

    A stirrup with a of 8 mm thatforms an overlap with the wire ropeloop must be provided per wire ropeloop and must be anchored in theconcrete precast part (Fig. 9). Thenecessary anchoring lengths andconcrete covers must be fixed by theresponsible designer acc. to the cho-sen concrete quality. As an alterna-tive to these stirr ups, it is also possi-

    ble to mount a mesh cap Q257A.Surface reinforcement

    Additional reinforcement and surfacereinforcement are not covered by theapproval and must be defined by therelevant planners according to the static conditions.

    Constructive reinforcement

    It is recommended to guide the surface reinforcement into the side flanks tothe right and left of the joint in order to protect it constructively from damage.

    In addition, two rebars diam. 10 mm at the edge are also recommended.

    Joint reinforcement

    Before filling the joint, steel reinforcement bars must be inser ted in the 12 mmdiameter in the vicinity of the loop overlapping (Figs. 1113, 1516) over thebar entire height of the joint. This reinforcement bar is statically absolutely

    Tolerances

    The VSSlim Box/Plus Box connection works as an overlapping joint. Forthis, each of the loops must lie within cer tain tolerances in ver tical and hori-zontal directions.

    In the vertical direction the loops must normally be mounted without offset insuch a way that they make contact with one another and are superposeddirectly above one another (Fig. 15). This can be obtained with the samearrangement of the boxes from the base point of the construction units to be

    joined together with one another.

    A maximum vertical tolerance of 20 mm is allowed (Fig. 16).

    Information on fire prevention

    According to DIN 4102-4:1994-03, Section 3.1.3, the minimum dimension isspecified as u = 25 mm. In this case,

    this data refers especially to the ver ti-cal reinforcement that is at risk of

    buckling or to reinforcements where itis notpossible to rearrange the load.

    According to DIN 4102, Table 1, thecritical temperature above which thenominal strength of the B500 A/Bstarts to reduce is:Tcrit.= 500 C.

    The VSsystem can be evaluated aspre-stressed steel bands with reducedutilisation. The required concrete cov-er is referred to a critical temperature of Tcrit.= 500 C. At the same time, itshould be noted that, according to DIN 4102-4, the previously determinedminimum axis spacings u do not have to be increased by a value u.

    As a consequence, a fire resistance period of 90 minutes results for thefollowing minimum wall thicknesses, for example (Figure 16):

    d* = loop width + 2 concrete cover =VSSlim Box: 60 mm + 2 (25 mm + 0 mm) = 110 mm

    VSPlus Box: 70 mm + 2 (25 mm + 0 mm) = 120**/140 mm

    * Assumption: The loops do not lie in the vicinity of the openings!** Minimum wall thickness (static) is 140 mm!

    Producing the reinforced concreteprecast parts

    Most of the wall elements are concreted on formwork tables. A trapezoidalledge is fixed on the frontal vertical end of the wall elements (Fig. 17). The

    dimensions of the trapezoidal timbers are indicated in Figure 18. It is importantto place the bearing concrete layer thickness in a central position.

    When mounting the VSSlim Box/Plus Box into the formwork, the rope end mustbe threaded into the reinforcement as straight as possible. The rope end anchor-ings must be arranged at less than 90 to the joint (Fig. 21). The fixing of the loopson the mesh reinforcement prevents the loops from slipping.

    After that, the boxes are nailed in a simple way by beginning at the lower point

    After removing the formwork

    After stripping out the formwork, the flexible covering tape is simply removedby pulling it off (Fig. 19). After that, the inside of the VSSlim Box/Plus Box isfree and the rope loops are visible. The rope loop can easily be tilted out witha tool to avoid injuries (Fig. 20). The wire rope loop must stick out vertically

    from the construction unit (Fig. 21) and, after tilting out, must spring back intothis position when mounting the construction units. To do this, the loop ishooked into the integrated fixing of the steel sheet box (Fig. 22). This is

    important for guaranteeing perfect loop overlapping. The wall constructionunits are now ready for final mounting on the construction site.

    Mounting the precast parts

    The joints, the VSSlim Box/Plus Box and the loops must be clean and freefrom soiling or separating humidification.

    The wall construction units are set into the permissible connection type on page 8(Fig. 2 to Fig. 5) either on a mortar bed or also on underlaid plates with differentheights The construction units must be leveled in such a way that the positionand the height correspond with each other. Normally, the joint of the constructionunits has an opening width of 20 mm and must lie within the maximum toler-

    Note: The weakest point of a channel joint of wall

    construction units is always the joint casting. Onlywhen the joints are faultless and fully cast andappropriate sealing of the jointing concrete is assuredcan the channel joints transmit the specified forceswithout any problem.

    PFEIFER VSrail systems have anoptimised profile without adverserecess bodies. Thus a thixotrope, ver-tical mortar can be used here, even inthe joint. The great advantage here isthat only very little formwork is need-ed. Particularly on large constructionsites with many meters of joints, thistechnology offers substantial savings.

    Information and tipsThe characteristics of the casting mortar/grout in the joint play a significant role inproducing a positive connection betweenconcrete sections and the PFEIFER VSsystem elements. The specially developed

    VS

    PAGEL

    GROUT has proved its suita-bility in extensive trials in combinationwith the PFEIFER VSSlim Box/Plus BoxSystem. Technical approvals have beengranted for this grout.

    Grout characteristics Highly free-flowing for at least

    90 minutes

    Shrinkage-compensated

    Frost and salt-resistant

    Can be pumped with mixing and feed pumps

    Corrosion-resistant

    Production certified to DIN ISO 9001

    Supplied as a bagged product (bags of 25kg)

    Mixing VS PAGELGROUTVSPAGELGROUT is supplied ready mixed and only needs to be mixedwith water according to the printed PAGELmixing instructions. The materialis then immediately ready for use.

    Casting the jointThe grout is poured in continuously until the desired level (max. 3.54m) isreached. The formwork must be able to absorb the stress that arises fromthis.

    Compacting is not necessary. Degassing by poking with the reinforced con-crete steel bar or the fitting of a vibrator is, however, recommended. The

    grout bonds very quickly and allows rapid continuation of work. After thecorresponding bonding times, the joint can be loaded to the permittedscope.

    Joint shuttering variants1. Board formwork

    In order to fill concrete panel joints flush with VSPAGELGROUT, a shutteringboard (Fig. 23) must be inserted from both sides. It is recommended here provide

    Joint filling using VSPAGELGROUT for VSSlim Box / VSPlus Box

    Figure24

    Figure25

    Figure26

    Figure23

    the shuttering boards with foam rubberIf the shuttering boards are correctly fixedand it is assured that the grout material cannot escape, the joint can be filled asdescribed in the section entitled Filling the joint. After the material has hard-ened the formwork can be removed, cleaned and reused.

    2. Mortar lead

    An additional variant enables the sealing of the joint flanks with the thixotrope

    VS-P PAGELCASTING MORTAR (Fig. 24). Af ter this mortar has hardened,the core area of the joint can then be filled with the VSPAGELGROUT and ahigher efficiency of the systems can be realised.

    3. VSFDS air tube form

    The air tube form consists of two 4 m-long air tubes. These are very slightlypumped and pressed into the joint slot, so that the casting space of the loopsis not adversely affected. After the air tube is applied over the entire jointheight, the air tubes are brought to the nominal pressure and the joint issealed Fig. 25. Now the joint can be cast from above across the entire heightof 3.54 m. After the grout has hardened, the air pressure can be released andthe air tube removed. After cleaning, it can be used again. Please also ob-serve the detailed installation instructions on page 28.

    4. Sealed compriband

    A further possibility of casting the joints with VSPAGELGROUT is the variantshown in the sketch in Fig. 26. Here, a defined foam cord/compriband is insertedin the joint before the casting and then a permanently elastic joint sealing in-stalled.

    After the joint sealing has completely hardened on both sides, the grout canbe used without additional formwork measures. However, the stresses thatoccur during casting must be taken into account here. These should be de-

    termined by the construction company and the appropriate casting sectionsselected so that any squeezing out of the joint seal ing is prevented.

    Amount of VSPAGELGROUT requiredThe VSsoftware (see pages 30-31) calculates the mortar volume for theselected joint to be cast based on the actual amounts and dimensions of theproject entered, it outputs the number of bags for the project and, on request,creates a fax request for PAGEL.

    For approximate calculations of the completely filled joints, the following tableis used where an average casting consumption per running meter is specifiedbased on 3.5 m high walls.

    Caution: When the air tube form or precompressed tapesare pressed into the lateral joints without adversely affec-

    ting the casting space, the effective lateral concrete coverfor the rails and for the rope loop is reduced. The residualcross-section must be at least 14 cm (VS-Plus-Box)respectively 10 cm (VS-Slim-Box).

    Caution: The VSPAGELGROUT is manufactured andbrought onto the market by PAGELSpezialbeton GmbH &Co. KG in Essen. Appropriate handling of the grout must,

    therefore, be carried out according to the manufacturer's

    data only.

    DimensioningThe concrete precast parts of steel-reinforced concrete to be joined mustbe dimensioned by the responsible designer according to DIN EN 1992-1-1 ina minimum concrete quality of C30/37. Connections made with the VSISI

    System3Dare seen as reinforced joints with design resistances for tensile andtransversal shear forces. Appropriate design resistances are listed in Tables 1.When dimensioning the connection, verification must then be conducted sepa-rately for each load direction. It is important here to ensure that tensile forcesacting from the outside and the resultant tensile forces from the acting trans-verse forces are taken into account.

    If no external tensile force should be applied, a simplified analysis via aninteraction diagram in accordance with the approval can be used. The actingexpansion forces then need to be validated.

    Crack widths due to outdoor constraint stresses should be limited(DIN EN 1992-1-1).

    Bending of the anchoring loopIn the case of elements with small dimensions, the anchoring loop in all railsystems can be bent. The bending dimensions shown in Figures 11 to 13are appropriate examples of this. In the case of an angle joint, a stirrup witha 8 mm is arranged in the area of the bent loop (Figs. 12 and 13).

    ReinforcementReinforcing must be installed in the reinforced concrete precast parts asshown in Figures 8, 9 and 14 for the VSrail systems. If correspondingreinforcing is already foreseen for other static reasons, this can be taken intoaccount.

    Stirrup reinforcement

    One stirrup with 8mm must beprovided per rope loop and anchoredin the component (Figs. 8 and 9).This forms an overlap with the ropeloop anchoring.The anchoring lengths of thestirrup and also the necessary con-crete covers of the stirrup must befixed by the responsible designer acc.

    to the chosen concrete quality. As analternative to the stirrups, it is alsopossible to mount an equivalentmesh cap Q257 A.

    Surface reinforcement

    Surface reinforcement or further rein-forcement are not regulated in the tech-nical approval and must be fixed by theresponsible structural designer accord-ing to the static conditions.

    TolerancesIn the longitudinal direction of the joint the loops must normally be installedwithout offset. The loops must be installed in such a way that they make con-tact with one another and are directly superposed above one another (Fig. 20).For joints over several floors, under certain circumstances, it can be useful to

    set regular zero points on which the rail sections can be oriented.

    Maximum vertical height tolerance from standard construction variations of20 mm is admissible (Figure 18).

    Information on fire preventionAccording to DIN 4102-4:1994-03, Section 3.1.3, the minimum dimension isspecified as u = 25 mm. This data refers especially to the vertical reinforce-ment that is at risk of buckling or to reinforcement where it is not possible torearrange the load.

    According to DIN 4102, Table 1, the critical temperature above which the yieldpoint of the BSt 500 reinforcement starts to reduce under the steel tensionpresent is: Tcrit.= 500 C.

    The VSsystem can be evaluated as pre-stressed steel bands with reducedutilisation. The required concrete cover will therefore be based on a criticaltemperature of Tcrit.= 500 C. At the same time, it should be noted that,according to DIN 4102-4, the previously determined minimum axis spacings

    u do not have to be increased by a value u.This results in the following minimum wall thicknesses in case of a fire resist-ance duration = 90 minutes (Figs. 15/16):

    Constructive reinforcement

    It is recommended to guide the sur face reinforcement into the side flanksto the right and left of the rail profiles in order to protect it constructivelyfrom damage. In addition, continuous angle irons ( 10 mm) are also rec-ommended.

    Joint reinforcement

    Before filling the joint, steel reinforcement bars must be inserted 12 mm intothe diameter in the vicinity of the loop overlapping (Figs. 8, 9 and 14) overthe entire height of the joint. It is statically imperative to have this reinforce-ment bar because it serves as gap pull reinforcement in the joint.

    Component jointsControl joint = 20 mm (Fig. 17)Minimum joint = 15 mm (Fig. 18)Maximum joint = 40 mm (Fig. 19)

    Manufacture of the steel reinforced concreteprecast elementsIn the case of a precast part connection with the VS rail system, the groutinggroove is automatically created by the rail profiles. This means that no addi-tional recess bodies, no additional depths or similar elements must be provid-ed here. When mounting the VSrails and long boxes into

    the formwork, the rope ends must be threaded into the reinforcement asstraight as possible. After that, the profiles are nailed in a simple way begin-ning at the lower point of construction unit for both construction units or areglued with hot adhesive to the steel formwork (Fig. 21). Fixing the loops onthe mesh reinforcement prevents the rail and the loops from slipping. The ropeend anchorings must be arranged at less than 90 to the joint. The profilesmust be arranged with the arrows upwards. They must be positioned so thatoverlaying loops correspond exactly in height.

    After removing the formworkAfter stripping out the formwork, the flexible covering film is simply removedby pulling it off (Fig. 22). After that, the inside of the VSprofile is free andthe rope loops are visible. The rope loop can easily be tilted out (Fig. 23). Theloop must stick out vertically from the construction unit and, after tilting out,

    must spring back into this position when mounting the construction units. Thisis important for guaranteeing a perfect overlap. The wall construction unitsare now ready for final mounting on the construction site.

    Mounting the precast partsThe joints, the rail profiles and the loops must be free from soiling or separat-ing humidification.The wall units are either set in the permissible connection type (page 18 and 19)or on a mortar bed or onto leveling plates. The construction units must belevelled in such a way that the position and the height correspond with eachother. A spacing between the joints of between 15 mm to 40mm is possible inaccordance with the technical approval. In the vertical direction, the opposingand contacting loops must overlap and must have a maximum spacing of up to20mm.

    PFEIFER application supportshould be contacted for installationvariants that differ from Figure 21where increased formwork com-

    pression is expected. This is thecase with upright or battery form-work, for example!

    Information and tipsThe characteristics of the casting mortarin the joint play a significant role in pro-ducing a positive connection betweenconcrete sections and the PFEIFER VSsystem elements. The specially devel-

    oped VS

    PAGEL

    GROUT has provenits suitability in combination with thePFEIFER VSrail system in extensivetrials. This grout has been granted theGeneral German Technical Approval.

    Grout characteristics Highly free-flowing for at least 90 minutes

    Shrinkage-compensated

    Resistant to frost and de-icing salt

    Can be pumped with mixing and feed pumps

    Corrosion-resistant

    Production certified to DIN ISO 9001

    Supplied as a bagged product (bags of 25kg)

    Mixing VSPAGELGROUTVSPAGELGROUT is supplied ready-mixed and only needs to be mixedwith water according to the printed mixing instructions from PAGEL . Thematerial is then immediately ready for use.

    Casting the jointThe grout is poured in continuously until the desired level (max. 3.54m) isreached. The formwork must be able to absorb the stress that arises fromthis.

    Compacting is not necessary. Degassing by poking with the reinforced con-

    crete steel bar or the fitting of a vibrator is, however, recommended. The groutbonds very quickly and allows rapid continuation of work. After the corre-sponding bonding times, the joint can be loaded to the permitted scope.

    Joint formwork variants1. Board formwork

    In order to fill concrete panel joints flush with VSPAGELGROUT, a shutter-ing board (Fig. 26) must be inser ted from both sides. Here, it is recommended

    VSPAGELgrout joint filler for the VSISI System3D

    to provide the shuttering boards with foam rubber to compensate for any une-vennesses. If the shuttering boards are correctly fixed and it is assured that

    the grout material cannot escape, the joint can be filled as described in thesection entitled Filling the joint. After the material has hardened the form-work can be removed, cleaned and reused.

    2. Mortar seal

    An additional variant enables the sealing of the joint flanks with the VS-PPAGELCASTING MORTAR (Figure 27). After this mortar has hardened, thecore area of the joint can then be filled with the VSPAGELGROUT and ahigher efficiency of the systems can be realised.

    3. VSFDS air tube form

    The air tube form consists of two 4 m-long air tubes. These are very slightlypumped and pressed into the joint slot, so that the casting space of the loops isnot adversely affected. After the air tube is applied over the entire joint height, theair tubes are brought to the nominal pressure and the joint is sealed. Now thejoint can be cast from above across the entire height of 3.54 m. After the grouthas hardened, the air pressure can be released and the air tube removed. Aftercleaning, it can be used again. Please also observe the detailed installationinstructions on page 28.

    4. Sealed compriband

    Another way is of casting the joint with VSPAGELGROUT is the variant illus-trated in the sketches in Figure 29. Here, a defined foam cord/compriband is in-serted in the joint before the casting and then a permanently elastic joint sealinginstalled.

    After the joint sealing has completely hardened on both sides, the grout can beused without additional formwork measures. However,the stresses that occur during casting must be taken into account here. Theseshould be determined by the construction company and the appropriate castingsections selected so that any squeezing out of the joint sealing is prevented.

    Amount of VSPAGELGROUT required

    The VSsoftware (see page 31) calculates the mortar volume for the selectedjoint to be cast based on the actual amounts and dimensions of the projectentered, it outputs the number of bags for the project and, on request, createsa fax request for PAGEL.

    For approximate calculations of the completely filled joints, the following tableis used where an average casting consumption per running meter is specifiedbased on 3.5 m high walls.

    Caution: When the air tube form or precompressed tapesare pressed into the lateral joints without adversely affec-

    ting the casting space, the effective la teral concrete coverfor the rails and for the rope loop is reduced. The residualcross-section must be at least 14 cm.

    Caution: VSPAGELGROUT is manufactured andbrought onto the market by PAGELSpezialbeton GmbH& Co. KG in Essen. Appropriate handling of the groutmust, therefore, be carried out according to the manu-facturer's data only.

    VSFDSairtubeform

    The PFEIFER VSFDS air tube form-work allows cast joints in the VSsys-

    tem to be rapidly and tightly formed.Installation is straightforward, there isno waste as the air tube can bereused. The product guarantees a tightjoint for castings up to 3.54 m inheight. After the grout has hardened,

    the air is released from the air tube, it 'staken out leaving a clean, deepened,slightly rounded, smooth joint. This is

    also especially suitable for a additionalelastic sealing of a building to the out-side.
