GENERAL INFORMATION

BANG-IT® +
Concrete Inserts

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Bang-It+ concrete inserts are designed for installation in and through composite steel deck (i.e. “pan-deck”) used to support newly poured concrete floor or roof slabs. The Bang-It+ concrete inserts are specifically designed to provide hangar attachments for mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) and fire protection.
After installation, the protective sleeve of the insert protrudes below the surface of the deck. The sleeves are color coded by size and allow overhead attachment of steel threaded rod in sizes ranging from 1/4″ to 3/4″ in diameter. The sleeve prevents sprayed fireproofing material and acoustical dampening products from clogging the internal threads of the insert. It also prevents burying, masking or losing the insert location. A hex impact plate offers resistance to rotation within the concrete as a steel threaded rod is being turned during installation.
A push-in thread version is also available which does not require turning the threaded rod or threaded bolt during installation. which can be ideal for applications such as mounting prefabricated hardwareand hanger assemblies.

GENERAL APPLICATIONS AND USES

Hanging Pipe and sprinkler systems
HVAC Ductwork and strut Channels
suspending Trapeze and Cable Trays
Mechanical Utility Lines
Conduit and Lighting systems
Cracked and Uncracked Concrete

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
+ Fast and simple to install, low installed cost
+ sturdy base design resists inserts from being kicked over after placement
+ Color coded by size for simple identification, can be further marked by trade and/or utility
+ Inserts can be installed in upper and lower steel deck profiles with limited concrete topping thickness (see installation details)
+ suitable for seismic and wind loading (see design information)
+ Multi thread inserts allow for multiple diameters using the same part
+ All sizes of multi thread inserts rated for tension and shear loading
+ Push-In thread version does not require turning threaded rod elements during installation
+ Inserts can be considered for use and placement with DEWALT Bridge Bar

Allowable Stress Design Values in tables for inserts are provided for illustration and applicable only when the following design assumptions are followed:

Concrete compressive strength, f’c, 3000 psi for sand-lightweight concrete. For normalweight concrete, tabulated tension design values may be increased by 17 percent for the given conditions, except for 1/4-inch-diameters where no increase is permitted.
Single anchors with static loads; installation in upper and lower flute locations in concrete-filled steel deck in accordance with Figures A, B or C, as applicable.
Concrete determined to remain uncracked for the life of the anchorage.
Load combinations from ACI 318 (-19 or -14) 5.3 or ACI 318-11 9.2, as applicable (no seismic loading considered).
30% dead load and 70% live load, controlling load combination 1.2D + 1.6L.
Calculation of the weighted average for α = 1.20.3 + 1.60.7 = 1.48.
h ≥ hmin according to Figures A, B or C, as applicable.
Values are for Condition B where supplementary reinforcement in accordance with ACI 318-19 Section 17.5.3, ACI 318-14 17.3.3 or ACI 318-11 D.4.3, as applicable, is not provided.
Assuming no edge distance influence with ed,N = 1.0 in tension for upper flute anchors.
Assuming no edge distance (ca1 ≥ 3hef) or corner distance influence (ca2 ≥ 1.5ca1) for upper flute anchors in shear. Shear loads may be applied in any direction.
For lower flute anchors in accordance with Figure A, the near edge distance, ca,min, is 1.125-inch. For lower flute anchors in accordance with Figure B, the near edge distance, ca,min, is 0.75-inch. For lower flute anchors in accordance with Figure C, the near edge distance, ca,min, is 0.75-inch.
The allowable loads shown in the table are for the inserts only. The design professional is responsible for checking threaded rod strength in tension, shear and combined tension and shear, as applicable. For designs that include combined tension and shear, the interaction of tension and shear loads must be calculated in accordance with ACI 318 (-19 or -14) Chapter 17 or ACI 318-11 Appendix D, as applicable.
