Supporting Steel Construction Companies

From Specification to Installation

Steel construction companies need more than product availability. Buyers, engineers and project teams need confidence that structural bolted connections, anchors and supporting fasteners are correctly selected, documented and supplied when required.

Fabory supports steel construction projects with SB assemblies, HV assemblies, anchoring systems, concrete screws, standard fasteners and threaded rod solutions. We combine this range with technical support, product documentation and services such as cut-to-length threaded rod.

Steel-to-concrete fixing

Concrete Screws for Fast and Reliable Steel-to-Concrete Fixing

Concrete screws provide a practical direct-fixing solution for connecting steel components, brackets, supports and secondary structures to concrete.

Fabory has invested in concrete screw stock to provide steel construction customers with stronger availability across commonly required sizes and configurations.

1

Faster Installation

Concrete screws are installed into a correctly prepared drilled hole without requiring a separate expansion component. This can simplify installation and reduce the number of components required.

2

Strong Direct Fixing

The screw thread creates a mechanical connection within the concrete, providing a secure fixing for suitable structural and non-structural applications.

3

Different Head Types and Sizes

The range includes different head designs, diameters and lengths to support a variety of steel-to-concrete connections.

4

Removable and Adjustable

Depending on the product and approved application, concrete screws can provide a useful solution where adjustment, removal or temporary fixing may be required.

Support from Selection to Installation

Fabory can support customers with product selection, technical information and anchoring calculations.

Common Questions About Steel Construction Fasteners

1

What is the difference between EN 15048 and EN 14399?

EN 15048 applies to structural bolting assemblies used without controlled preloading. EN 14399 applies to high-strength structural bolting assemblies intended for preloaded connections. The correct standard must be selected according to the connection design, project specification and required installation method.
2

Can I shop SB assemblies separately from HV assemblies?

Yes. Fabory provides separate product routes for EN 15048 SB assemblies and EN 14399 HV products, helping customers navigate directly to the structural bolting system specified for their project. Complete assemblies and compatible components should always be selected according to the applicable standard and project requirements.
3

Does Fabory supply Rawlplug Koelner HV assemblies?

Yes. Fabory supplies Rawlplug Koelner products for EN 14399 HV preloaded structural bolting applications. Technical information, documentation and availability depend on the selected product, required dimensions, quantity and local market.
4

What types of anchors does Fabory supply?

Fabory supplies a broad range of anchoring products, including mechanical anchors, chemical and resin anchoring systems, cast-in anchors, expansion anchors, concrete screws, frame fixings and related installation accessories. Product suitability depends on the substrate, load, installation conditions and required approval route.
5

Why should I consider concrete screws?

Concrete screws provide a direct mechanical fixing method for suitable steel-to-concrete applications. Depending on the approved product and application, they can simplify installation by using a drilled hole and a single fixing rather than a multi-component anchor assembly. The selected screw must match the concrete condition, load and required approval.
6

Can Fabory help me select the correct anchor?

Yes. Fabory can support anchor selection based on factors such as the base material, load direction, edge distances, spacing, installation conditions and project requirements. The Fabory Anchor Calculator can also evaluate post-installed anchors for structural use in concrete in accordance with EN 1992-4.
7

Can threaded rods be supplied cut to length?

Yes. Fabory can supply threaded rod cut to agreed project-specific lengths. This service can reduce on-site cutting and handling, support more consistent preparation and help limit unused material. Available materials, finishes, diameters and tolerances should be confirmed when ordering.
8

Which threaded rod products are highlighted on this page?

This steel construction page directs customers to the threaded rod selection for lengths under one metre. Longer threaded rods and stud bolts may be available through Fabory’s wider threaded rod and stud bolt assortment but are not promoted in this specific section.
9

When do I need ETA or DoP documentation?

A Declaration of Performance is required when a construction product is covered by an applicable harmonised European standard or when a European Technical Assessment has been issued for that product, subject to the relevant Construction Products Regulation requirements and exemptions. The required documents depend on the product, intended use, approval route and project specification and should be confirmed before ordering.
10

Can I request technical advice, documentation or project pricing?

Yes. Fabory can support steel construction customers with product selection, technical questions, documentation requirements, current availability and project pricing. The available support and commercial conditions depend on the application, product specification, required quantity, delivery location and project schedule.
