Led by Swing West Contractors, the $3.5 million dollar tilt-up project required a tie solution for specific areas of tilt panels with heavy structural steel congestion around openings and edges. Several of Dayton Superior;s accessory products were utilized, including the newly launched Yeti-Anchor along with Delta Ties, the T110 Superior Lift System, T6A Brace Anchors, T13 Coil Anchors and B12A Tilt-Up Braces.
Husby Construction found the impressive spacing allowances of Dayton
Superior's 1.5" Yeti-Anchor made placing the
reinforcement cages much simpler and improved production time and labor
costs. Dayton Superiors Delta Ties were used in partnership
with the Yeti-Anchor in the center of panels requiring less steel
reinforcement.
The Yeti-Anchor is a new, innovative insulated panel tie with
advantageous design for a simple install; its high strength composite
material improves placement and productivity on the job site. With
industry testing, calculations and application detail, the complete
Yeti-Anchor package is valuable with both contractors and engineers. As is the free Yeti-Anchor calculator, which
provides users easy and accurate estimations for the number of
Yeti-Anchors and Delta Ties needed for a job.
Swing West Contractors confirmed the Yeti-Anchor’s design makes the
install process very fast and offers improved productivity in areas with
congested reinforcement. It offers wider spacing, so less ties are
required. The flexibility of using both Delta Ties and Yet-Anchors
offers the best of both worlds while accommodating any panel design.
Project engineers on the Husby Construction tilt-up project appreciated
the Yeti- Anchor for its comprehensive test data, project specifications
and application support.
