Place the foot plates

Mark the four corner positions per the site survey, then drill and install M12 chemical anchors. Set each 220 × 220 × 12 mm anchor plate level with shims; verify all four are coplanar within ± 2 mm.

Sub-steps

  1. 1Lay out the four corner positions per the site survey using a chalk line and tape.
  2. 2Verify the W × P rectangle: measure both diagonals — they must agree within 3 mm.
  3. 3Drill four Ø 14 mm holes for M12 chemical anchors at each corner mark.
  4. 4Inject HIT-HY 200 (or equivalent) epoxy into each hole; insert M12 stainless threaded studs.
  5. 5Wait the cure time printed on the cartridge (typ. 30 min @ 20 °C).
  6. 6Bolt the 220 × 220 × 12 mm anchor plate to each stud; level with shims; torque to 60 Nm.
  7. 7Verify the four anchor plates are coplanar within ± 2 mm using a laser level or string line.

Specifications

Anchor typeM12 chemical anchor (e.g. Hilti HIT-HY 200 + HAS-V)
Hole Ø14 mm × 90 mm depth
Cure time30 min @ 20 °C (consult cartridge)
Plate size220 × 220 × 12 mm anodised aluminium
Torque60 Nm
ToleranceDiagonals ± 3 mm · Coplanar ± 2 mm
TIP

Diagonals must match within 3 mm — measure W × P and the two diagonals before drilling. Skipping this check is the #1 cause of misaligned columns later.

WATCH OUT
  • Do not anchor into expansion-joint zones or within 100 mm of slab edges.
  • Substrate must be C25/30 concrete minimum. Lower-grade concrete requires longer anchors and a structural review.

TOOLS

Tape, chalk line, hammer drill (M12), torque wrench, spirit level, shim plates

MODULE SIZES

Six standard sizes — couplable for any footprint

The Sereno 700 is built around six standard single-module sizes. Each module uses four columns and supports a maximum single-span width of 4.0 m. For larger footprints, modules couple side-by-side or in an L-configuration, sharing intermediate columns.

Size (W × P)AreaModule configurations
3 × 3 m9Single — 4 columns
3 × 4 m12Single — 4 columns
3 × 5 m15Single — 4 columns
4 × 4 m16Single — 4 columns
4 × 5 m20Single — 4 columns
4 × 6 m24Single — 4 columns
Maximum single-span
4.0 m. Larger areas are built by coupling multiple modules.
