What Is a Hall Anchor?

A hall anchor serves as the connecting point between formwork and the supporting structure, ensuring that panels remain fixed during concrete pouring. Unlike simple hooks or clamps, the hall anchor features threaded sections and a seating flange that work in tandem to transfer loads evenly. Designers appreciate how a well-chosen hall anchor reduces formwork movement, minimizes alignment errors, and ultimately contributes to a more uniform concrete finish. In practice, architects and contractors rely on hall anchor performance data—such as pull‑out resistance and embedment depth—to verify that their formwork system meets both safety codes and on‑site demands.

Materials and Construction

Most hall anchors consist of carbon steel (grade Q235 or Q345), sometimes upgraded to stainless steel (AISI 304/316) for corrosive environments. The steel rod undergoes precision turning and thread rolling, while the flange is stamped from sheet steel and heat-treated to relieve stress. To combat oxidation, anchors are hot-dip galvanized to a minimum coating thickness of 80 µm, or electroplated for tighter thread tolerances. Interestingly, specialty variants feature duplex coatings—zinc followed by epoxy—for extreme durability. By controlling metallurgical composition and surface finish, manufacturers guarantee consistent tensile strength (up to 550 MPa) and predictable deformation characteristics under load.

Applications of Hall Anchors

In residential concrete floors, the hall anchor locks edge forms in place to prevent lateral creep when concrete reaches its fluid state. Commercial high‑rise projects utilize heavy‑duty hall anchors to withstand dynamic forces during high‑speed pours. Bridge construction often calls for adjustable anchors that accommodate varying form thicknesses, ensuring a snug fit even when crews swap panels of different depths. Moreover, in precast yards, hall anchors enable repeated panel assembly and disassembly without thread wear—thanks to replaceable flange sleeves. For instance, casting beams and columns relies on anchor consistency to align cavities, while slab-on-grade work demands anchors that resist pull‑through as concrete shrinks.

Types and Variations

Standard hall anchors feature a fixed thread length—commonly 150 mm, 200 mm, or 300 mm—paired with a flat seating flange of 50 mm diameter. Heavy‑duty models offer thicker flanges (up to 70 mm) and longer threads (400 mm) for deep embeds. Adjustable‑length anchors incorporate two interlocking rods, letting installers fine‑tune embedment from the site rather than ordering multiple stock lengths. Some designs include a plastic sleeve to prevent concrete ingress around the thread, facilitating easier removal. The choice among these variations influences application speed, safety margins, and long‑term durability, so engineers weigh thread pitch, flange rigidity, and coating type when selecting the ideal hall anchor for each project.

Kokybės užtikrinimas ir sertifikatai

Every batch of hall anchors passes rigorous quality control: thread gauge inspections ensure tolerance compliance within ±0.1 mm, while tensile and torque tests validate mechanical performance. Third‑party laboratories often verify pull‑out resistance under EN 14399‑1 or ASTM F1554 standards, issuing Material Test Certificates (MTC) that detail chemical composition and mechanical properties. Additionally, ISO 9001 certification confirms that manufacturers maintain a controlled production process, from raw‑material procurement through final packaging. With traceable heat numbers stamped on each flange, contractors can cross‑reference every anchor to its test reports, ensuring on‑site accountability and adherence to contractual specifications.
