Important note.
This document gives a basic overview of the PFEIFER-VS
System. General information about installation and use is
given here.
This document contains no information about dimensioning
or load-bearing capacity! It is essential that the applicable
national regulations (approvals/standards) are observed in
respect of joints that support static loads and are therefore
subject to building regulations.

General installation instructions for the VS Slim Box and VS Plus Box systems
Use
The PFEIFER VS Slim/Plus Box
systems are provided for the connection of reinforced concrete precast wall elements (Figures 2 to 5)
made of concrete of grade C30/37
or better.
The systems always consist of
the VS Slim/Plus Boxes and of
a suitable casting mor tar such
as VS PAGEL GROUT.

The VS Slim/Plus Box joint functions as an overlapping joint. For that reason,
the loops must each lie above one another within certain vertical and horizontal tolerances.
Vertically, the loops are usually to be fitted without any offset, so that they
touch one another and lie directly on top of one another (Figure 12). This
happens when the boxes are arranged in the same way from the base of the
elements to be joined. A maximum vertical position error of 20 mm is permitted (Figure 11).

The wall elements are usually concreted on formwork tables. A trapezoidal strip is
fastened to the frontal vertical end of the wall elements, according to Figure 13. The
dimensions of the trapezoidal wood can be obtained from Figure 14. Care should be
taken to see that the position is central within the load-bearing concrete layer. When
inserting the VS Slim/Plus Box into the formwork, it is necessary to ensure that
the wire rope end is threaded as straight as possible between the reinforcement.
The anchorages for the wire rope ends are to be arranged at 90 to the joint
(Figures 13/17). Fixing the loops to the reinforcing mat with wire prevents the
loops from slipping out of place. Starting from the lowest point of the element, the
boxes are then nailed into place, or attached with hot-melt adhesive in the case of
steel formwork. It is always important to see that the arrangement is the same on
both sides of the joint!
After demoulding
The flexible covering foil is simply pulled off after demoulding (Figure 15).
The inside of the VS Slim/Plus Box is then exposed, and the wire rope loops
are visible. The wire rope loops can then easily be folded out, using a tool to
avoid injury (Figure 16).
The wire rope loop should protrude perpendicularly from the structural element
(Figure 17), and should spring back to this position again even after having
been pushed aside when assembling the elements. To do this, the loop is
hooked into the fastening that is integrated into the sheet metal box (Figure 18).
This is important in order to ensure that the loops will overlap properly later on.
The wall elements are now ready for final installation on site.
Caution: The most sensitive element of the connection of the joint
between wall elements is always the casting mortar. Only when the
joints have been properly and completely cast, and the joint concrete has
been suitably compacted, can the joints transmit the applied forces properly.
Notice: The illustrations show the VS Plus Box. They are to be
used in much the same way for the VS Slim Box.
05_032-23
Assembling the precast elements: The joints, the VS Slim/Plus Boxes and the loops must be clean, free from dirt or from separative fluids. The
wall elements are either placed on a bed of mortar or on underlaid plates of different heights with the permitted connection method according to page 8 (Figure 2 to
Figure 5). The elements must be levelled so that their position and heights are in accordance. The width of the opening at the element joint is usually 20 mm, and
must not be outside the tolerance range of between 10 and 40 mm. Vertically, the loops should lie in contact one the other, or may have a distance of no more than
20 mm between them.

The planning must not provide for any offsets between the loops over the
length of the joint. The loops must therefore be installed in such a way that
they are in contact and lie directly on top of one another (Figure 18). If the
joints extend over a number of floors, it may in some circumstances be
useful to set regular zero points for orientation of the rail sections.
Maximum vertical height tolerance from standard construction variations of
20 mm is admissible (Figure 17).

The flexible covering foil is simply pulled off after demoulding (Figure 22). The inside of the VS profiles is then exposed, and the wire rope loops are visible.
The wire rope loop can easily be folded out (Figure 23). The wire rope loop should protrude perpendicularly from the element, and should spring back to this
position again even after having been pushed aside when assembling the elements. This is important in order to ensure the correct overlap. The wall elements are now ready for final installation on site.
Notice: PFEIFER application consultation service
should be consulted if increased
formwork pressure is to be
expected as a result of vertical
formwork.

The PFEIFER VS rail systems are provided for the connection of reinforced
concrete precast wall elements (Figures 2 to 5), or walls and columns made
of concrete of grade C30/37 or better. The systems always consist of the
VS profiled rails and of a suitable casting mortar such as VS PAGEL
GROUT or VS P PAGEL JOINT FILLING MORTAR.

When the elements have small dimensions, the anchoring loop of the VS Long Boxes can be bent. The crucial factor here are the bending dimensions given,
for example, in Figures 8 to 10. At a corner joint, a 8 mm stirrup is recommended in the region of the bent loop.

The planning must not provide for any offsets between the loops over the
length of the joint. The loops must therefore be installed in such a way that
they are in contact and lie directly on top of one another (Figure 16). If the
joints extend over a number of floors, it may in some circumstances be
useful to set regular zero points for orientation of the rail sections.
Maximum vertical height tolerance from standard construction variations of 20
mm is admissible (Figure 15).

After demoulding
The flexible covering foil is simply pulled off after demoulding (Figure 19). The inside of the VS profiles is then exposed, and the wire rope loops are visible.
The wire rope loop can easily be folded out (Figure 20). The wire rope loop should protrude perpendicularly from the element, and should spring back to this
position again even after having been pushed aside when assembling the elements. This is important in order to ensure the correct overlap. The wall elements
are now ready for final installation on site.
Notice: PFEIFER application
consultation service should
be consulted if increased formwork pressure is to be expected as
a result of vertical formwork.

Joint filler VS PAGEL GROUT for VS Slim Box/VS Plus Box/VS Box
Information and notes
The properties of the grout in the joint play an important role in a load-bearing connection of precast concrete elements with the PFEIFER VS system
elements. The specially developed VS PAGEL GROUT has proven its suitability in combination with PFEIFER VS systems in extensive tests.
Grout properties
Very free-flowing for at least 90 minutes
Shrinkage-compensated
Resistant to frost and de-icing salt
Can be pumped with mixing and conveying
pumps
Corrosion inhibiting
Production certified according to DIN ISO 9001
Delivered as bagged goods (25 kg bags)
The VS PAGEL GROUT is delivered ready-to-pour, and only requires the addition of water according to the PAGEL mixing instructions printed on the bag.
The material is then immediately ready to use.
Joint filling
The grout is added continuously until the planned height (max. 3.54 m) is reached. The formwork must be able to withstand the pressure created in this way.
Compaction is not necessary. Nevertheless, air removal by poking with the reinforcing steel bar or the application of an internal vibrator is recommended. The
grout sets very quickly, and allows work to continue promptly. The joint can be subjected to the approved load after the appropriate setting time.

Another way to cast the joints with the VS PAGEL GROUT is the variant
sketched in Figure 4. In this case, prior to casting, a foam cord/compriband is
inserted into the joint in a defined manner, after which a permanently elastic
jointing is applied.

When this jointing has completely hardened, the grouting can be carried out without any additional formwork measures. The pressure that arises during casting
must, however, be considered. This should be determined by the processing
company, allowing suitable casting sections to be chosen to avoid the jointing
from being pushed out.

The VS software calculates the volume of grout for the selected grouted
joint, using the true quantities and dimensions of the project that has been
entered. It outputs the number of sacks required, and, if wanted, creates an
enquiry fax for PAGEL.
Table 4 below makes it possible to calculate an estimate of the fully-filled
joints; an average grout consumption per metre of joint, based on walls that
are 3.5 m high, is given.

Joint filling
First completely close off one joint flank using foam cord, profiled rubber (Figure 9), or alternatively using VS P PAGEL JOINT FILLING MORTAR (Figure
10). After closing with VS-P PAGEL JOINT FILLING MORTAR, wait for the mortar to become stiff. After this, working from the other side, the remaining
joint, which is now closed on one side, should be filled from the bottom to the top evenly and continuously. Gently poking the joint with the filling nozzle or
the filling pipe ensures a proper result. The joint can easily be drawn flat after having been filled.

Nozzle making
The user can make the filling nozzle from commercially available 22 mm
(3/4") copper heating pipe. It can be attached to the pump hose with the aid of
a solder fitting (Figures 11 and 12).

The PFEIFER VS FDS Joint Pressure
Formwork makes it possible to apply form
work to filling joints in the VS FS system
as quick as a flash for a perfect seal.
Simple to fit and completely waste-free
because joint pressure formwork can be
reused.
The joint pressure formwork guarantees a
tight join when casting up to 3.50 m in
height. After the joint filling has hardened
the air is released from the pressure formwork and it is removed, leaving a clean,
recessed, slightly rounded smooth join.
This is especially useful for the permanently elastic exterior seal of a building.
