Drill holes to the existing concrete beam and fix reinforcement with HILTI RE 500
bonding agent
Advantages
Method statement
1. Consult your structural Engineer for the design of cantilever slab reinforcement
2. Call HILTI Engineer to get instruction for reinforcement fixing
3. Drill holes to specified diameter and depth
4. Clean holes with blow out pump provided
5. Insert HILTI RE 500 chemical with the use of dispenser provided ( No hand
mixing)
6. Insert the reinforcement bars and keep 8 hrs to cure
7. Arrange reinforcement as usual
8. Roughen the concrete surface and apply any bonding agent if necessary and do
the concreting as usual
Sample calculation
Assumptions :
Consider 1m strip of concrete
Concrete grade 25N/mm2
Slab thickness 200mm at support
Structural Engineer recommend to have Y10 @ 150 mm c/c
Moment develop at the support of new cantilever slab M = 20 kNm/m
M=T*Z
where T = ultimate tension develop in the reinforcement at support ( for 1m )
Z = lever arm = 0.775d = 0.775(200 – 25) = 135.6mm
Tension capacity of Y 10 bar with RE 500 = 19.7 x 180/90 x 1.03 x 0.9 = 36.5 > 22 kN
Satisfactory
Check for steel failure
Tension capacity of Y10 = 0.87fy.As = 0.87 X 460 X 78.5 = 31.4 kN
