CONNECTING OFFSITE CONSTRUCTION
Hollo-Bolts by Lindapter were specified for the modular construction of The Spurn Discovery Centre in East Yorkshire.
Once the modular rooms arrived on site,
contractors used the Hollo-Bolts to
connect the Structural Hollow Section
(SHS) frameworks of the adjoining rooms
together. The Hollo-Bolt was selected because
of its high strength capacity and its range of
independent technical accreditations, including
the CE Mark approval. The Hollo-Bolt allowed a
fast and convenient installation process from
one side only without the need for special
installation tools or equipment, which resulted
in an efficient construction schedule.
This project is featured in Lindapter’s new guide
to the modular and off-site construction industry.
The booklet explains how contractors can
maximise efficiencies and control costs by using
Lindapter fixing systems. It includes typical
Lindapter applications in the offsite construction
industry, such as joining the structural
framework of modular rooms together,
connecting balcony extensions, securing steel
frameworks to ground screws and attaching
cable trays. The brochure also uses real-life
examples to demonstrate how Lindapter fixings
can be used at each stage of the modular
project from transport and lifting, through to
securing the framework and modular rooms.
Since 1934 Lindapter has been pioneering steel
connections that eliminate the need for 'hot
working', meaning that there is no damage to the
existing steelwork and no need for area closures
or hot work permits.
