Seismic approved Hollo-Bolt used on Californian stadium

Lindapter's CE marked Hollo-Bolts secure the prominent signs on top of the stadium in Santa Clara, California. Lindapter's Hollo-Bolt recently became the only expansion bolt for structural steel to have full seismic approval from ICC-ES for all seismic design categories (A to F). Further to this approval, the Hollo-Bolt has been specified for many structures that are situated in high-risk earthquake areas. A recent example is the stadium in Santa Clara, CA, which is one of the best sports and entertainment venues in the world, with a maximum capacity of 75,000 seats. High up above the stadium, Hollo-Bolts and brackets were used to attach the prominent stadium signs. Lindapter's CE marked Hollo-Bolts were chosen as they are approved by ICC-ES for use in all seismic design categories A to F. In addition, these original expansion bolts for structural steel have the highest resistance to tensile loading in accordance with AC437, while ensuring compliance with the 2012 international building code (IBC). Using the Hollo-Bolts meant that the contractors could simply lift the sign into position and insert the Hollo-Bolts into the pre-drilled holes and tighten with simple hand tools from just one side. The Hollo-Bolts provided a faster and convenient installation process without the need for drilling or welding. As a premium British manufacturer of steelwork fixings with over 80 years' experience, Lindapter prides itself on a wide range of independent approvals, the highest level of customer service and extensive technical support including a free connection design service.
