In this first part of our Health, Safety and Environment webinar series join us to discover the strategies to guarantee the safety of post-installed rebar applications.

Join us for a deep dive into the firestop and anchoring solutions for different façade systems. In the second session of the Project Application series, you'll learn more about the benefits of Hilti innovative solutions for passive protection of edge of slabs and cavity barriers, as well as cast-in channels.

Hilti Australia is a recognised CPD provider by the Australian Institute of Architects (AIA) Refuel program. Our 60 minute accredited course, “Importance of Passive Fire Protection” contributes 1 formal CPD point. The course provides an introduction to fire compartmentation techniques and the importance of using passive firestopping in conjunction to active fire control measures. We look at common applications where passive firestopping is required and overview the compliance and regulation requirements of the NCC.

In this second part of our Health, Safety and Environment webinar series join us to discover the strategies to guarantee the safety of overhead post-installed anchors.

During this session we'll discuss how to consider corrosion when designing post-installed anchors to allow maximum durability of the fixings in compliance with the required design life of the structure. This webinar will discuss local and international standards as well as the different coatings and materials of Hilti anchors.

When fire events happen, it's important that the structures and services remain stable while people have enough time to evacuate the buildings. Both mechanical and chemical anchors, as well as post-installed rebar can be designed considering fire conditions according to European standards. Join this session to learn more about the EOTA technical notes for each post-installed fixing under fire and Hilti approved portfolio.

The impact of seismic forces in partition walls has led to the need for seismic approved fixings in order to provide safety for the users of the buildings. Following recent standard development in Europe, Hilti is launching innovative solutions willing to support partition walls designers, suppliers and installers to gain productivity without compromising compliance. This session will explain what is in the newly published testing and design standards as well as Hilti's most recent innovative solution: the seismic approved pins.

Designing and building hospitals and other healthcare facilities can be a challenging process considering the number of services that need to be installed in limited spaces, such as surgery rooms, patient room areas, laboratory areas and other service rooms. Adding to the complexity, fire safety should follow the most stringent standards as many occupants can have mobility issues. Join this session to learn more about how Hilti can support with the right passive fire protection systems and MEP supports systems.

The first version of AS 5216, the Australian Standard for Design of post-installed and cast-in fastenings in concrete, was published in 2018, replacing the previous technical note SA TS 101:2015. Since then, the standard was reviewed in 2021 and it's planned to be reviewed in 2024. This session will discuss the new sessions added to the most recent versions of AS 5216 as well as the basic concepts of the code.
