3.4.2 Lifting of monoblocs
-
Monoblocs are generally delivered with a perforated counter-frame
– hole diameter 50 mm –
for inserting suitable tubes/rods, where the unit is lifted, see
and
-
The tubes/rods are not included in the delivery scope, but have to be provided by the company,
which is responsible for the lifting operation.
-
Two, three or more holes per side of the monobloc are available according to the length and
weight of the unit. As a consequence, two or more tubes/rods can be used.
-
The determination of the number and the dimensions of the tubes/rods and the load carrying
equipment are the responsibility of the performing company.
-
We recommend varifying the suitability of the selected tubes/rods by a structural engineer.
-
The force effect has to take place uniformly across all tubes/rods.
-
The load carrying equipment must be secured against slipping off, e.g. see
