| 20100011693 | SHEAR PLATE - A shear plate for application to the outer end portion of a ferrule to be cast into a concrete component such as a wall panel, the shear plate having an outer portion engageable with the ferrule and, beyond the outer portion, a portion shaped to incline away from the adjacent surface of the concrete component to which the outer end of the ferrule is to be exposed. The shear plate enables the ferrule to be situated close to an edge of the component in a situation in which it will be subjected to shear loading in a direction towards that edge. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20090205268 | CAST-IN LIFTING ANCHOR - An edge-lift anchor for tilt-up lifting of a concrete component has, at a lower part of its head means for anchoring the head against shear forces acting during the tilt-up phase of lifting. Such means may comprise an aperture to receive concrete, an aperture to receive a length of reinforcing bar, of a shear plate welded to the lower edge of the head. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20080203270 | Void Former - A void former particularly for use with a lifting anchor cast into a concrete component is of two piece construction comprising a flexible element and a separate body which is substantially rigid. The flexible element is engageable with the head of the lifting anchor and is maintained in position by the rigid body which also acts to maintain the shape of the void during casting. After casting the rigid body is removed from the flexible element to thereby permit the flexible element to be disengaged from the lifting anchor by manipulation. The void former is thereby removable after casting without destruction of the void former and is thereby suitable for repeated use. | 08-28-2008 |
