Thermotec B/C connector

Thermotec of the B and C types is a safe and easy to install method of connecting the ceiling with the supported balcony slab. These connectors only transfer shear forces acting in one direction, not transfer bending moments.
Their main advantages are:

Load capacities given in tables have been prepared for typical cases and the reinforcement ratio at the level of 0.5% and 1%. Load capacities for higher ratios of the reinforcement, elements close to edges and fastener systems can be determined according to the procedure in the last chapter of the catalogue.

Connectors allow transfer of transverse forces acting on the joint of the supported balcony slab and the ceiling slab.
