(Main)Design and use of inserts for lifting and handling of precast concrete elements
Design and use of inserts for lifting and handling of precast concrete elements
1.1 General
This Technical Report provides recommendations for the choice and use of cast-in steel lifting inserts, hereafter called 'inserts' for the handling of precast concrete elements. They are intended for use only during transient situations for lifting and handling, and not for the service life of the structure. The choice of insert is made according to the lifting capacity of their part embedded in the concrete, or may be limited by the capacity of the insert itself and the corresponding key declared by the insert manufacturer.
The report covers commonly used applications (walls/beams/columns and solid slabs and pipes). The range of these applications is further limited to prevent other types of failure than concrete breakout failure (cone failure), bond failure, failure of reinforcement or failure in the steel insert.
Due to lack of information this report does not cover double shell walls, floor plates and small beams for floor systems.
The safety levels are given for information and are intended for short-term-handling and transient situations.
This Technical Report applies only to precast concrete elements made of normal weight concrete and manufactured in a factory environment and under a factory production control (FPC) system (in accordance with EN 13369:2013, 6.3) covering the insert embedment.
This Technical Report does not cover:
— the design of the lifting inserts independently placed on the market;
— lifting inserts for permanent and repeated use.
This Technical Report is prepared based on the fact that the anchorage in the concrete of parts of the lifting assembly is governed by the Construction Products Regulation. Lifting accessories independently placed on the market are governed by the Machinery Directive.
1.2 Types of inserts for lifting and handling
This Technical Report applies to the embedment of lifting inserts. Devices made by the precaster may consist of smooth bars, prestressing strands, steel plates with anchorage or steel wire ropes. The system devices may be e.g. internal threaded inserts, flat steel inserts and headed inserts.
Lifting loops of ribbed bars are not covered.
1.3 Minimum dimensions
This Technical Report applies in general to inserts with a minimum nominal diameter of 6 mm or the corresponding cross section. In general, the minimum anchorage depth should be hef = 40 mm.
Wire ropes of diameter less than 6 mm are not covered.

European foreword
This document (CEN/TR 15728:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 229
“Precast concrete products”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document supersedes CEN/TR 15728:2008.
To ensure the performance of the precast concrete products, lifting and handling should be taken into
account in the design of the product.
Inserts are used for lifting and handling of precast elements. They should meet an appropriate degree of
reliability. They should sustain all actions and influences likely to occur during execution and use.
This Technical Report deals with lifting inserts cast into precast concrete elements. The intent of this
document is to give information to precast product designers.
The failure of inserts for lifting and handling could cause risk to human life and/or lead to considerable
economic consequences. Therefore inserts for lifting and handling should be selected and installed
properly by skilled personnel according to the lifting and handling instructions.
This Technical Report based on current practices gives recommendations for correct choice and design
of lifting inserts according to the lifting capacity of their part embedded in the concrete. It is based on
EN 1992-1-1 (Eurocode 2), EN 1993-1-1 (Eurocode 3), CEN/TS 1992-4-1 and on published supplier’s
data.
Safety levels should be determined nationally. In the Technical Report numerical values for safety
factors as used in different CEN member states are given for information and are recommended as basic
values that provide an acceptable level of reliability. They have been selected assuming that an
appropriate level of workmanship and of quality management (Factory Production Control) applies.
They may be applied in the absence of national regulations.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights.

1 Scope
1.1 General
This Technical Report provides recommendations for the choice and use of cast-in steel lifting inserts,
hereafter called 'inserts' for the handling of precast concrete elements. They are intended for use only
during transient situations for lifting and handling, and not for the service life of the structure. The
choice of insert is made according to the lifting capacity of their part embedded in the concrete, or may
be limited by the capacity of the insert itself and the corresponding key declared by the insert
manufacturer.
The report covers commonly used applications (walls/beams/columns and solid slabs and
pipes). The range of these applications is further limited to prevent other types of failure than
concrete breakout failure (cone failure), bond failure, failure of reinforcement or failure in the
steel insert.
Due to lack of information this report does not cover double shell walls, floor plates and beams for
beam-and-block floor systems.
The safety levels are given for information and are intended for short-term-handling and transient
situations.
This Technical Report applies only to precast concrete elements made of normal weight concrete and
manufactured in a factory environment and under a factory production control (FPC) system (in
accordance with EN 13369:2013, 6.3) covering the insert embedment.
This Technical Report does not cover:
— the design of the lifting inserts independently placed on the market;
— lifting inserts for permanent and repeated use.
This Technical Report is prepared based on the fact that the anchorage in the concrete of parts of the
lifting assembly is governed by the Construction Products Regulation. Lifting accessories independently
placed on the market are governed by the Machinery Directive.
1.2 Types of inserts for lifting and handling
This Technical Report applies to the embedment of lifting inserts. Devices made by the precaster may
consist of smooth bars, prestressing strands, steel plates with anchorage or steel wire ropes. The
system devices may be e.g. internal threaded inserts, flat steel inserts and headed inserts.
Lifting loops of ribbed bars are not covered.
1.3 Minimum dimensions
This Technical Report applies in general to inserts with a minimum nominal diameter of 6 mm or the
corresponding cross section. In general, the minimum anchorage depth should be h = 40 mm.

4 Basis of design
4.1 General
Inserts for lifting and handling should sustain all actions and influences likely to occur during execution
and use, thus preventing any structural failure (ultimate limit state). They should not deform to an
inadmissible degree (serviceability limit state). Long term effects such as corrosion of the insert should
be taken into account by the designer.
In the design of lifting inserts it is assumed that they are produced with ductile materials having
pronounced deformations before failure. The deformability should be maintained with age and under
low temperatures.
The inserts load capacity for lifting and handling should be calculated and/or tested according to the
principles and design models given in this document. Embedment conditions for lifting and handling,
which do not conform to these principles or design models, should be tested according to the
recommendations given in Annex A and evaluated in accordance with EN 1990.
4.2 Required verifications
Ultimate limit state (ULS) and serviceability limit state design (SLS) are commonly used in present
structural design. This design concept is based on partial factors.
For transient lifting and handling situations the admissible load design concept based on global factors
was established in the past and is still and very often used in daily lifting insert design practice.
Both methods of verification of lifting inserts are described in the following.
4.3 Design Principles
4.3.1 Limit state design
For the inserts the following should be verified:
4.3.2 Ultimate limit state
4.3.2.1 General
In the ultimate limit state verifications are required for all appropriate load directions.
It should be shown that:
E ≤ R (4.1)
d d

E = design value of effect of actions with E = E × γ ;
d d load
E = effect of actions loading the insert;
γ = partial factor for load;
load
R = design value of resistance of the insert, with R = R / γ ;
d d k M
R = characteristic value of resistance;
k
γ = partial factor for material.
M
4.3.2.2 Servicability limit state
In service limit state the inserts should not significantly deform and the material of the insert and the
corrosion protection should be selected taking into account the environmental conditions of the final
structure if the insert remains in the precast element over service life in the structure.
It should be shown that:
EC≤ (4.2)
dd
where
E = design value of insert deformation;
d
C = nominal value, e.g. limiting
d
deformation.
Actions should be obtained from the relevant parts of EN 1991-1 where applicable.
4.3.3 Admissible load design
The design of lifting inserts may be carried out on the basis of allowable loads, since the manuals of the
lifting insert suppliers normally only provides admissible loads for their inserts. This concept is based
on global safety factors and requires that the action E does not exceed the admissible resistance R .
adm
It should be shown that:
E ≤ R (4.3)
adm
where
E = effect of actions loading the insert;
R = admissible load on the insert provided by the
adm
supplier.
The admissible resistance of lifting inserts according to this technical report is:
Radm = Rk / γ (4.4)
where
R = characteristic value of resistance;
k
γ = global safety factor, factor to cover uncertainties in action and resistance.

4.4 Verification
4.4.1 General
The verification of the resistance should be for all actions and load directions. The method used for
verification may be ultimate limit state and service limit state (partial factors), or admissible load
design (global safety factors).
4.4.2 Partial factor method (Ultimate limit state)
4.4.2.1 Partial factors for actions
Partial factors for actions to be used are given in EN 1990:2002, Annex A.
In the absence of National provisions the for partial factor γ , globally taking into account model
load
uncertainties for dead load and live load, i.e. self-weight, adhesion, form friction and dynamic actions
the following value is recommended:
γ = 1,35

4.4.2.2 Partial factors for resistance
In the absence of National provisions the partial factors given for steel failure in Table 1 and for
concrete and anchorage failure in Table 2 are recommended.
