The installation-friendly and approved system for structural strengthening.

Concrete-concrete shear connector FCC

The fischer concrete-concrete shear connector FCC is an officially approved system for structural strengthening. Thanks to its geometry and ease-of-installation, the fischer FCC is a fast, cost-effective alternative to traditional installation using bent iron. The fischer concrete-concrete shear connector FCC is suitable for the structural retrofitting of bridges and for increasing their load capacity as well as for increasing the load-bearing capacity of ceilings and reinforcing supports. The fischer FCC can be used with the fischer injection mortars FIS V, FIS V Plus, FIS EM Plus, FIS RC II and FIS SB in accordance with the site conditions. In conjunction with the fischer FIS EM Plus, use in diamond-drilled holes is also permitted.

The advantages / Product description

Advantages
  • Due to its geometry and ease of installation, FCC is the rapid and economic alternative compared to the conventional installation method with bent iron.
  • Dimensioning of the anchorage is possible thanks to the building approval. Thus, the system offers maximum security.
  • Variable anchoring depths allow for ideal adaptation to the load to be applied, and ensure an optimised installation time and use of materials.
  • Depending on site conditions, the FCC can be anchored, in compliance with the approval, with the injection mortars FIS SB, FIS EM Plus, FIS V Plus or FIS RC II.
  • In conjunction with FIS EM Plus, FCC is also approved for use in diamond-drilled drill holes.

Application and approval

Applications
  • Increasing load capacity of bridges and other concrete structures
  • Increasing structural safety of ceilings during functional changes
  • Structural strengthening of foundations, piers, columns and walls
  • Structural retrofitting of car park ceilings following corrosion of rebars
Building materials
Approved for:
  • Concrete C20/25 to C50/60, cracked and non-cracked
You can find detailed information on building materials in the registration document.
Approvals
  • Z-21.8-1954

Assembly instruction

Functionality
  • The system consists of injection mortar (e.g.: FIS SB or FIS EM Plus) and the concrete-concrete shear connector FCC.
  • The mortar is injected bubble-free from the drill hole base.
  • The mortar adheres the drill hole wall to the shear connector FCC.
  • The shear connector is set manually, by lightly rotating it until it reaches the drill hole base.
  • The tensile and shear forces arising in the joints between the old and new concrete are absorbed by the FCC-H and safely redirected.
