ETICS: FOCUS ON SERVICE Read also the other parts of the series and learn more about our 360° service on the topic of ETIC systems. Part 1 – What is an anchor pull-out test for? Part 2 – What must be taken into account with reveal beads with mesh?
If the fastening base on the structure is not covered by the ETA or if it cannot be determined clearly or at all, on-site tests, so-called anchor pull-out tests, are required. This requirement can be found in the ETA of the anchor. If, despite the required necessity, a pull-out test is not carried out, this can have serious consequences in terms of liability in the event of damage.
Further training with an online guide and YouTube channel The components of the TEC ACADEMY described above are supplemented by the online guide and the Construction Division’s YouTube channel.
Depending on the application on the roof or facade and the selected fastening system, the execution of the site pull-out tests is carried out and evaluated on the basis of valid regulations according to the EAD, ETAG, TR or TS**).
As soon as the suitable spot is free of dust and grease, a profile piece about 10 cm long is glued on and pressed on firmly.

Employees, the environment and the company benefit. To achieve this, the company is relying on the support and commitment of the employees at its locations in Germany and abroad with the “wejot” project. “wejot”, founded in autumn 2022, consists of an ideas competition for CO2 reduction and an employee capital participation scheme that is directly linked to the annually defined climate targets.
These are used, for example, as pole screws for the high voltage contacting of battery modules or as spacers for the electrical decoupling of printed circuit boards in an on-board charger. Battery systems With regard to batteries, the focus at EJOT is again on "fastening". Wherever maximum assembly reliability and performance are required, the flow drill FDS® screw, which is already used for the body-in-white construction, can fully demonstrate its advantages.

The project to purchase CO2-reduced steel will be expanded to 500 tonnes this year. The fact that EJOT requires around 43,000 tonnes of steel per year shows that this is just the beginning of a long journey. “This is a major challenge, but one that we will tackle with vigour in line with our climate protection goal,” says Mr Böttcher.
It is particularly important to know if a company's innovations are just a random product or if they are systematically planned and thus repeatable in the future.

First, the planned installation position is selected from the three areas using the table: Window set back in the building wall Window flush with the building wall Window in front of the building wall (in the insulation level) Once the correct installation position has been determined, the window size is selected from the group in the corresponding column: Small format (up to the largest edge length of 2.6 m or an area up to 2.6 m²) < 6 m² < 10 m² Finally, only ...
In the case of roof covering, the roof skin consists of individual components such as roof stones, roof tiles, small-format shingle-shaped components or large-format panel-shaped components.
Since hardly any industrially manufactured component can do without screw connections, this diffuse unease among design engineers and component developers is still very relevant today.

In contrast, the illustration on the right shows a tiled roof, as found in many residential buildings.
It is impressive what is being done here for society. Because trees are still the largest store of CO2. The central question for many as to why a planting campaign is being carried out in this period of drought was answered by Gustav Prinz zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg in his welcoming address: "Take a good look at our plants, they are special," said the head of the Rentkammer.

The drilling performance value ≥ t is stated in millimetres. For direct bearing surface (e.g. trapezoidal profile to steel substructure) the following formula can be used: Drilling performance for direct bearing surface t = component tI + component tII For sandwich panels the following formula applies: Drilling performance for sandwich panels t = component tII If the drilling performance (alternatively also called drilling capacity) is too low, the screw cannot finish the work step "drilling" and the drill point clogs with the flowing swarfs.
