Accessories
Applications: RAPID® fullthread
In timber to timber connections, RAPID® fullthread screws are only used in a few cases as normal to the component joint in shear. They are predominantly used as inclined fasteners subjected to axial tension or compression.
Screw crosses can be arranged for general load directions. Other applications include component reinforcements for transverse tensile stresses or high shear stresses.
Cross Laminated Timber (Ceiling Rib)
Shear-resistant crosswise screwing for cross laminated timber ceilings.
Tip: the connection should first be pulled tightly together using e.g., partial thread screws. The pitch of the screws should be oriented in the direction of the main load.
Reinforcement of openings with long RAPID® fullthread screws
The area marked in red indicates the risk of cracking. The same thread length is required above and below this marking. Long full thread screws with cylinder heads are recommended. They can be positioned exactly using long bits.
Transverse tension reinforcement for notching
The structural engineer must review the requirement. If the transverse tensile load is too high for the timber section, full thread screws will be used to reinforce and secure the beam in the red line area.
Support reinforcement with steel plate and fullthread screws
RAPID® fullthread screws transfer the support load from the timber section directly to the steel plate through the screw heads. They distribute the force evenly into the end grain of the support.
