5.1.7 LIFTING BRACKET E V-100
The fact that the LIFTING BRACKET E V-100 has a 13 kN working load, does not mean that PANELS of 26 kN (2
brackets/PANEL) can be raised:
The 13 kN working load is the maximum working load of the LIFTING BRACKET E V-100, but the geometry of this
PANEL can limit this value, dropping it until 5.5 kN. The reason of this dropping is that when calculating the lifting
of the PANEL, apart from the LIFTING BRACKET E V-100, it has to be taken into account how many WALER VM20
CLAMPS has each BEAM M20 with the E V-100 LIFTING BRACKETS.
Each CLAMP RVM20 has a 2.75 kN shear working load.
In PANELS with fewer than 5 rows of MK-120 WALERS (i.e., fewer than 5 WALER-VM20 CLAMPS per BEAM VM20
with the LIFTING BRACKET E V-100), the working load will be delimited by the number of MK-120 WALERS it has
(The number of WALER-VM20 CLAMPS).
From 5 rows of MK-120 WALERS on, the working load of the LIFTING BRACKET E V-100 will be 13 kN, regardless
of the number of WALERS it has.

Working loads of the E V-100 LIFTING BRACKETS.
Example:
in a 2.5x3.4 m PANEL (width x height) there will be 3 horizontal MK-120 WALERS, so each BEAM VM 20
with the LIFTING BRACKET E V-100 will be tied to the 3 WALERS; by means of 3 WALER-VM20 CLAMPS. Therefore,
the working load of each bracket will be 8.25 kN (3 x 2.75kN).
A 2.5x3.4 m PANEL with 6 WALER-VM20 CLAMPS between the MK-120 WALERS and VM 20 BEAMS. Each LIFTING BRACKET E V-100 will have
a 3x2.75 kN working load.
