EBEA® Balcony Connector is a load bearing insulated connection element that prevents thermal bridges in concrete structures. It minimizes thermal bridges in cantilever balconies and other applications such as walls and slabs. We offer 15 standard EBEA® Balcony Connector models and many different variations for those. Obviously, choosing the right combination is not an easy task. That’s why the company would like to introduce you to EBEA SELECT – a web based tool that in no time provides you with optimized connectors, creates the RFQ, and at the same time, allows to customize your selection to meet design requirements in the best possible way.

Using EBEA SELECT is as easy as riding a bike. It doesn’t require any special skill set and once you’ve got the hang of it, you’re good to go. There are only a few mandatory criteria to choose from. After those are defined, the tool offers a set of suitable combinations with short description and technical information all the way to the connector’s resistances and utilization ratios in acting forces, its stiffness, and thermal properties.

Just use your existing Peikko Designer® login information or create a new account and start designing balcony connectors faster, safer, and more efficiently.
