HALFEN cast-in anchor channel systems HTA-CE (HTA) and HZA
Use advice for data set Scope: This document refers to the HALFEN cast-in anchor channel systems HTA-CE (HTA) and HZA and corresponding HS and HZS channel bolts (hook-head channel bolts and hammer-head channel bolts). Halfen cast-in anchor channels type HTA-CE and HZA are produced at Halfen plant Langenfeld / Germany and Halfen cast-in anchor channels type HTA and HZA are produced at HALFEN plant Windcrest / USA. Specific data from the HALFEN production facility in Langenfeld / Germany and Windcrest / USA was recorded for the LCA. System boundary: Type of the EPD: cradle-to-gate - with options. The declaration considers the life cycle stages of production (A1-A3), including processes that provide materials (mainly steel) and energy input for the system, manufacturing (welding and niveting) and transport processes up to the factory gate, as well as waste processing. The production takes place in Germany and the USA, all main raw-materials are transported to factory in Germany and then distributed to the USA. The end of life covers the recycling of the steel parts, with impacts in module C4 and module D which covers loads and benefits beyond the system boundaries are also considered.
Technical purpose of product or process Cast-in anchor channels are cast in concrete. Prior to the casting process, they are positioned in the component and fastened in their position to the formwork, to the reinforcement or by appropriate auxiliary construction. Anchor channels serve towards subsequent fastening of fixtures. Typical areas of application include curtain wall façades, fastening elevator installations in shafts, fastening of overhead wires and utility service pipes and cables in tunnel, fastening of handrails, platforms or seats as well as applications in the area of installation technology.

General comment on data set The product portfolio of HALFEN cast-in anchor channel systems compromises cast-in anchor channels type HTA-CE (HTA) and type HZA and corresponding hook-head channel bolts and hammer-head channel bolts named as HS (for HTA-CE and HTA) and HZS (for HZA). The anchor channel comprises a C-shaped steel profilel with mounted anchors on the channel back. These anchors are formed as round bolt anchors or as I-anchors. The anchors are mounted on the channel back by riveting or welding process. Hot-dipped galvanized quality was considered for this EPD. The inner section of the anchor channel is filled with a PE foam which prevents an entry of concrete slurry during casting. The various anchor channels differ in terms of mass in relation to running metres. The declared reference product is the cast-in anchor channel system HTA-CE (HTA) 40/22 with HS 40/22 bolts with a weight of 2.6 kg/m. In order to calculate the LCA results for the following cast –in anchor channel types the conversion factors listed in chapter 3.10 can be applied.

Technology description including background system The materials needed for the final assembly of the HALFEN cast-in anchor channel systems HTA-CE (HTA) and HZA are manufactured in-house or purchased from qualified vendors. The HALFEN cast-in anchor channels are made of cold-formed or hot-rolled channel profiles. The cold-formed channel profiles are produced at HALFEN plant Langenfeld / Germany. The anchors are mounted on the channel back by riveting or welding process. HALFEN cast-in anchor channels with riveted bolt anchors are produced at HALFEN plant Langenfeld / Germany. HALFEN cast-in anchor channels with welded I-anchors are produced at HALFEN plant Langenfeld / Germany and HALFEN plant Windcrest / USA. The anchor channels are hot-dipped galvanised after the mounting process of the anchors. The filler is assembled after the galvanising process at HALFEN plant Langenfeld / Germany or HALFEN plant Windcrest / USA. Technical data: For the placing on the market in the EU/EFTA (with the exception of Switzerland) the Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 applies. The products need a Declaration of Performance taking into consideration the respective European Technical Assessment and the CE marking. All geometrical dimensions, product-specific parameters and the static load capacities of the different cast-in anchor channel systems HTA-CE (HTA) and HZA are given in the following technical specifications: HTA-CE (HTA) system: /ETA 09/0339/ /ETA 16/0453/ /CABR-YMC-1A-(2016) by CABR/ /ICC-ESR 1008 by ICC-ES/ HZA system: /Z-21.4-145/ /Z-21.4-1691/ Some types of cast-in anchor channels HTA-CE (HTA) and HZA are also approved for transfer of fatigue cyclic loads and for fire exposure. Please refer to the mentioned approval documents for a detailed design of the anchor channel and other data related to the specific application condition. Declared unit: The declared unit is 1 m length of cast-in anchor channel. The calculation of the average of two production sites is based on actual production volumes.
