Introduction Paraslim is a modular soffit support system designed to facilitate construction of edge projections, parapets and string courses of composite steel girder and precast concrete bridge decks. It may also be used to construct the capping beams to sheet piles or connect to a previously cast wall to produce a simple access platform for use in low-rise jump formwork applications

The system is based on a triangular frame consisting of a Superslim top chord with a tubular or Superslim undercarriage. Frames are laced together with tube and fittings to produce a module erected and dismantled by crane. All erection, levelling, use and dismantling can be carried out safely from above deck level thus eliminating the need for special access plant and enhancing safety by reducing work at height. The modules can be provided to site preassembled by RMD Kwikform, thus saving site assembly time and space.

In bridge construction, Paraslim modules are either assembled onto the bridge girders before they are raised into position, in which case they form a full span access platform available for use immediately, or they are craned into position individually alongside the erected bridge beams. Various edge protection options are available ranging from Ultraguard mesh panels to fully hoarded debris shields for use over live road or rail traffic.

Paraslim Weld Stud & Ferrule M24x50 (PSX10001) weight 0.25kg

Stud Material Weld studs are manufactured from low-carbon steel grade St 37-3K conforming to DIN standard 17100 offering excellent weldability. Mechanical properties are in accordance with DIN-ISO 898 Sheet1, grade 4.8: Yield stress:

340 N/mm2, tensile strength: 420 N/mm2, elongation: 14 %.

AWL = 60kN tension & 43kN shear (factor of safety 2:1 on yield).

Stud Welding It is the responsibility of the customer to verify the adequacy of any weld procedure used for the attachment of the threaded studs onto the main steelwork and to ensure that all such studs are individually tested. Welding of the studs can be by the Drawn Arc process with procedures generally in accordance with DIN 8563 pt.10 (NOTE: Excluding testing requirements) or by M.M.A., M.A.G. or F.C.A.W. with procedures in accordance with BS 288 pt.3.

The drawn-arc process is the preferred method used to attach weld studs. The stud is inserted into an applicator tool, which is connected to one terminal of a substantial electrical supply. The beam to which the stud will be connected is attached to the other terminal. The bottom end of each stud is slightly pointed and contains a small, embedded slug of aluminium metal. When the operator applies the applicator to the beam an electric arc is struck between the two components. The heat of the arc melts both the end of the stud and the surface of the beam with the aluminium acting as a flux. The resultant molten weld metal is retained in situ by a small ceramic ferrule placed around the stud prior to application.

In addition to visual inspection of every weld, each stud must be subjected to an axial proof load of 100kN prior to use. Records should be kept of all inspection and testing.

COMPONENTS


Date: 17/01/2018 Issue : PS01


Stud Weld Testing If the correct procedures are used the drawn-arc process produces a reliable full strength butt weld over the entire cross section of each stud. Poor weld quality will result if incorrect current/voltage are used and if operatives attempt to weld the studs when too much moisture is present (i.e. in the rain or before the steel is dry after-wards). There are few opportunities for a half-way-house in quality; when the weld is defective it exhibits very low strength, otherwise the stud is good.

DESIGN DATA

Design Paraslim consists of triangular frames laced together to form modules. A single diagonal tie from a porthole in the top chord of the triangular frame to a bracket bolted or welded to the support structure suspends each frame in the module. All other reaction points (R1, R2 & R3) use simple bearing and are not positively connected.

Member Forces and Reaction Distribution The member forces and reactions are controlled by two factors; the vertical loads on the system and the outboard moment on the frame. The only vertical support is provided by the Paraslim Tie. Because this is inclined a horizontal force is generated which is resisted by compression at R1. If the outboard moment is low compared with the vertical load the outboard moment is resisted by a couple generated between R1 & R2. This produces compression at R2 and relives the compression due to the tie load at R1. If the outboard moment is high relative to the vertical load the compression at R1 decreases until it reaches zero. As it cannot take tension any further moment causes the reaction distribution to change from a horizontal reaction at R1 to a vertical reaction at R3. On steel bridge beams reaction R3 is provided by packing to the underside of the top flange. On concrete edge beams it is provided by the undercarriage hooking underneath the beam. The side formwork will affect the distribution of forces and this should be considered during the design. The distribution of forces and reactions should be calculated using either simple static or elastic analysis. Simple static analysis is best carried out using a bespoke spreadsheet calculator and elastic analysis is carried out using frame analysis software. Inboard Rotation As well as outboard rotation the Paraslim frame must also be checked for inboard rotation caused by vertical loads inboard of the porthole bearing support plus wind forces on the hand-rail/hoarding and underside of the module. As the point of vertical support for the Paraslim frame is the Porthole Bearing this is the point around which the frame will rotate during any condition of instability. A stability check is best done by simple moments. A minimum FOS of 1.2 against overturning should be considered. Kentledge or wind ties to the support structure should be used where necessary.

DESIGN DATA

Side shutters Three types of side shutter are generally used: Considering the horizontal forces and moments caused by the side shutter: Type X All taken by permanent structure, none taken by Paraslim. Type Y All taken by Paraslim. Type Z Shared by permanent structure and Paraslim. The type selected can have a significant affect on the distribution of forces and reactions and it is important the shutter erected on site matches that detailed by the designer.

Wind Loading Wind forces should be calculated using a wind code appropriate to the location. Appropriate force coefficients are as below.

Note. Wind uplift on structures such as Paraslim is not well covered by design standards. Correlation is taken from advice for canopies with a Cf value of 0.9 being taken if the wind can pass freely underneath and 1.3 in all other situations. Normally the wind will be able to pass freely underneath but in rare situations the wind can be deflected up at a steep angle so that it hits the underside of the Paraslim. This can be because of a large obstruction under the structure or because it is at the top of a very steep embankment or cliff. In these case a Cf value of 1.3 should be used.

Allowable Tie Loads The allowable tie load is dependant on the capacity of the tie, the anchor bracket and the method of fixing the anchor bracket to the existing structure.

Maximum allowable tie load of a Paraslim Bracket when welded or bolted to a steel structure with M24 x 50 weld studs = 55kN

The maximum allowable tie load of the Paraslim Bracket when bolted to a cast in fixing on a concrete structure will depend on the capacity of the anchor.

The tie itself has an allowable capacity of 65kN but this can only be achieved in two stage cantilever construction where the Paraslim Bracket is fully encased in the first pour by at least 150mm and the concrete has achieved a concrete strength of at least 25N/mm2.

Bracket Reactions

Module Layout In order to provide redundancy wherever possible modules should be detailed with three or more frames. Two frames modules should only be detailed for structure with tight vertical or horizontal curves.

Deflection Frame analysis for Paraslim schemes shows the RMD Kwikform equipment to be relatively stiff and typically gives primary deflection values in the region of 4mm at the concrete face. There will be significant and additive secondary deflections caused by other factors. Their sum will likely exceed the primary deflection and although RMDK have no responsibility to calculate values, we have much experience in this field and should communicate such information to users of the system so that appropriate soffit pre-setting allowances may be made by the Customer during erection. Any deflection of the permanent works will allow rotational deflection of the Paraslim system. Below are typical causes and values of these deflections.

Lateral deflection of the bottom flange of the girder (3mm).

Lateral deflection of the web at the lower horizontal web support (2mm)

The sum of these deflections is 5mm. The deflection of the soffit at the cantilever edge however will be amplified based upon the ratio of the vertical distance between the reaction points on the girder web and the length of concrete cantilever. If this ratio is 2 than the resultant deflection at the edge of the cantilever due to the secondary effects will be 10mm. This is additional to the 4mm calculated in the frame analysis. The total deflection will hence be in the region of 14mm. Further rotational deflection will result at any joint between the Horizontal Superslims if the bolts in the joint have not been torqued up to 140Nm.

Appendix ‘A’ - Paraslim Access Platform (The additional components needed to construct a Paraslim Access Platform are listed in this Appendix).

The Paraslim Access Platform is a modular cantilever platform system designed primarily to provide high level access on concrete structures and support to formwork.

The system is based on the same triangular frame as Paraslim, consisting of a Superslim top chord with a tube and turnbuckle undercarriage, however the platform is attached to the structure with a different type of anchorage and brackets are laced together in pairs with tube and fittings to produce a platform module erected and dismantled by crane.

Each of the two frames in the module is mounted securely onto the structure by engagement with a wall mounted bobbin unit fitted to anchor cones or screws embedded in the previous pour. A safety latch captivates the system to the bobbin thus preventing disengagement in the event of accidental upward loading.

Care is needed to ensure that each pair of cast in anchors is set at the correct centres to suit the module frames.
