v-dimensions are based on washer thickness as in SN 808 + 1 x nut height as in DIN EN ISO 4032 or DIN 934
+ ≈ 1 x d1 for the application of hydraulic pretensioning units as in NH (SMS Standards Book) Part 4 (SN 403).
3)
The length of the shuttering sleeve shall be chosen such that the sleeve projects by 100 mm over the raw concrete and can
be subsequently adapted.
4)
w dimensions are based on rounded values of 20 x d, without regard to quality of concrete, reinforcement etc. For more
precise calculations, the instructions given in DIN 1045-1, 10.7, and VDI 2230 Sheet 1, shall be followed.
