Lifting insert for prefabricated concrete components

摘要

A lifting insert for prefabricated concrete components with a bracket for increasing the shearing strength thereof. The insert is embeddable in the body of the component proximate to one of the faces of the component so that one of its ends protrudes, or is otherwise accessible, from the face of the component so that it is engageable by lifting means. The bracket of the insert comprises at least one brace, which is connected to the insert and is also embeddable in the body of the component. The brace is constituted by a lamina that wraps around the insert in a scarf-like fashion with one of its portions.
