TENSILE STRUCTURE TENSION BAR FOR ROOF BRACING
Bars are of high strength steel ranging in diameters from 12mm to 100mm which areavailable up to 12m in a single length (longer lengths achievable by connecting bars withcouplers or turnbuckles) and have cold rolled metric threads which increase strengthallowing for smaller diameter bars subsequently saving in material cost.
According to the loading capacity, different bar qualities might be offered and it can beoffered as carbon, galvanized and the stainless steel as per the requirement. Typicalapplications include hangers and supports, cross bracing and truss stiffening elements.
For areas of higher corrosion exposure bright polished stainless-steel tendons arerecommended.
Fittings & Accessories
Shown below are the standard range of fittings. Special fittings can be made andsupplied upon request.
Turnbuckles
Turnbuckles are used to increase the lengths of tension rods where 6-12m lengths are notenough and/or to pretension tension rods and adjust lengths at site. Turnbuckles arepipe-type machined components that can be manufactured with different shapes tosuit application requirements.
End Connections
Having two standard types (fork, plate), end connections are designed andmanufactured based on payload of the tension system.
Pins
Pins are components that connect the tension system to the structure. Together withtheir end caps, pins are described and used as "pin barrel" The end caps are securedwith countersunk socket set screws to provide a Bush finish.
Lockcovers
The locking thread cover (lockcover) is a machined fitting which tapers the fork to thediameter of the bar. For the complete architectural look, they also hide exposed threadsand when tightened against the fork lock the tendon at the set length. Where visuacomposition is not important and thread covers are not reguired standard hexagonanuts can be used.
