SRG Global’s QuikBox™ System is an Australian made, prefabricated, fully sealed system designed for a quick and simple method of allowing continuity of reinforcement at construction joints in concrete.
The QuikBox™ system consists of a dimpled galvanised steel case for effective concrete bond, a galvanised steel lid, 500 Grade ACRS approved pre-bent reinforcing in the required configuration
and polystyrene end caps. QuikBox™ is a fully taped and sealed system to prevent concrete ingress.
The QuikBox™ system can be fixed to the formwork or tied into the reinforcing at the required location. Once ready, the concrete is placed. When the formwork is struck the lid can be easily removed exposing the reinforcing bars inside the system.
These bars are then bent out and ready for lapping with the main reinforcing. The dimpled galvanised steel case is left embedded in the concrete and provides a shear key between the first and second concrete sections.
QuikBox™ is manufactured with Grade 500N ACRS approved reinforcing bars with a minimum yield of 500MPa which meets the AS/NZS 4671:2001 requirements. All bars have a minimum uniform elongation A.gt 5% and are bent to comply with AS/NZS 4671:2001.
QuikBox™ can be used in a wide range of applications of construction joints commonly including:
• Jumpforms - wall to floor connection.
• Floor slab to floor slab - crane or otherpenetrations.
• Wall to wall - external to internal walls.
• Wall to slab - core or lift core connection.
• Wall to corbel - conventionally formed.
• Precast concrete elements to wall / slab - insitu concreting.
• Wall to stairwell / landings.
