Reinforce Against Punching Shear with our CARES-approved Prefabricated Stud Rail System

The CARES-Approved Ancon Shearfix system provides structural support to a concrete slab when it is joined with a column, to prevent issues or complications related to punching shear. This solution is made up of double-headed studs which are welded to flat rails located around the base or head of the column. The system is suitable for all column shapes and is easy to install either ‘top down’ or ‘bottom up’, depending on preference.

Our Eurocode 2 compliant software automatically calculates the optimum design of Ancon Shearfix stud rails for virtually any column size, shape and location. Find out more here.
