    June 2006 Standard Method of Detailing Structural Concrete A manual for best practice Third edition 55 Mechanical couplers for bars Where the reinforcement in a seston is congested smechanical couples maybe used to good eet, There are two distinc pes of mechanical couplers (Se LCIRIA: 92 Reinforcement comeciorand- anchorage meds) + sion SORES. * compression couples Unless specitied otherwise tension couplers should be used. It sould be nowd that the cover provided for couplers should be diet specified for dhe reinforcement, ‘The notation used on the drawings and schedules for any special end preparation requirements is given as “E” just before the mark Couplers are mainly tested in tension, but as required, may be tested under comoression. evelic and fatigue regimes. In the UK couplers should be supplied by a company holding a valid third party technical approval (cg. CARES UK, BBA eic) and should be processed by fabricators being a member of the CARES UK third party certification scheme or equivalent. ‘Several types of coupler are available tor tensile ‘and compressive bars.

There are ‘wo variations to this type of coupler. Type 1a uses reinforcing bars with the threaded portion having a smaller clameter than the rest. 1ype 1 uses bars with te Unewded portion having a cross sectional area quel or greater than the snsinal sas, The former ie rarely wood sinoo the load capacity is reduced; the latter which maintains the parent bor load eapacity is widely used. An altemative to Type I also inchudes « variant where ane end ofa parallel threaded coupler is waged on toa br. ‘The parallel (Type 1) couplers elso have transitional and positional variants. ‘The transitional coupler allows two bars of different size to be joined. ‘The positional coupler usually comprises two halves Joined by a parallel thread and lock nut arrangement. ype 2: Couplers with toper-cut threads ‘This system consists of an internally threaded metal ‘coupler with a tapered thread, and matening tapered bus, Due w its ability «@ meet the majority of the structural building applications itis popula The ctandard tapered coupler can only be used in situations where the continuing bars can be rotated. ‘This is nar always practical and more sophisticated tapered couplers have heen developed whieh allow the ing of bars that can not be rotated, and the joining of bars where the continuing bar can nether be rotated nor moved (e.g. L-bars). Figure 5.12 shows examples of positional and transitional couplers Type 3: Couplers with integral threads over full length bar High yield reinforcing bars are specially manufactured ‘with helical deformations along the full length of the bar. ‘The deformations form a continuous coarse thread onto which an internally threaded coupler can be screwed. Lockmuts are used at ester end of the ‘ouple: w prevent slippage on the coarse threads. A fumbuckle system for when dhe continuing bar cannot be rotated ‘completely threaded onto one bar and then run back foto the rantining bar to form the joint rot available, but the coupler ean be Type 4: Metal sleeves swaged onta have AA seamless malleable ste! sleeve is slipped over the abutting ends of two reinforcing bars (see Figure 5.13). The sleeve is then swaged (deformed) onto the ends of the bars using a hydraulic press. This action effectively spices the bars together. The process can bbe caried out wholly in-situ. The hydraulic press compresses the sleeve laterally onto the bars and several “ies’ are usually necessary to cover the whole Joint, ‘Sulficieut working space must be avetlable round the bars to enable the lydiaulic press 0 sewage onto the bars. In addition, swaging equipment for lange diameter bars (HH40 ond greater) muy ‘quire mechanical support for safe operation.
