1.1 Scope of Application
LENTON® FORM SAVER couplers have been evaluated for use as follows:
•BS8110andEC2forstaticuseintensiononly.
1.2 Design Considerations BS8110Clause3.12.8.9states“Connectionstransferring stress may be lapped, welded or joined with mechanical devices. They should be placed, if possible, away from points of high stress and should preferably bestaggered”.BS8110Clause3.12.8.16.2statesthata mechanical coupler satisfying the specified slip and tensile strength criteria is the only acceptable form of a full strength butt joint.
The specified cover for fire resistance and durability should be provided to the coupler sleeve. All couplers have been designed with controlled mechanical properties to be compatible with reinforcing bars to BS4449 Grade B500B and B500C.

4 Installation
Figure 1
Figure 2
The bars to be threaded must be cut square and threaded, using LENTON® equipment and suitably trained and experienced operatives in accordance with LENTON® operating instructions. These operators will have a LENTON® Training Certificate.
It is recommended that the joints be tightened to the correct torque mentioned in the installation manual, using the appropriate LENTON® torque wrench.

7 Quality Assurance
LENTON® FORM SAVER mechanical couplers have been tested tosatisfytherequirementsofBS8110andEC2whenusedwithreinforcing bars to BS4449 Grade B500B and B500C. The testing comprised the following elements:
TA1-B• TensileStrengthgreaterthan540MPaforgrade B500Breinforcementor575MPaforgradeB500C.
• Permanentdeformationoflessthan0.10mmat0.65fy
The products are subject to a programme of periodic testing to ensure that they remain within the performance limits of this technical approval.
LENTON® FORM SAVER mechanical couplers are produced at an approvedfacilityunderaCARESapprovedISO9001:2008qualitymanagement system. The quality assurance scheme monitors the production of the couplers and ensures that materials and geometry remain within the limits of this technical approval.
