WHO IS RIKTA

With industry leading products suitable for both rigid and non-rigid / wire bracing, RIKTA can offer the ideal solution for all non-structural component bracing. All RIKTA seismic bracing product ranges have been specifically designed for the bracing of non-structural building components in accordance with building codes and national standards including AS1170.4 and NZS4219.

In the occurrence of an earthquake or seismic event it is crucial that mechanical and electrical services, as well as HVAC, plumbing and fire suppression systems are protected from damage to allow buildings to operate as normal.

With industry leading products suitable for both rigid and non-rigid/wire bracing, RIKTA can offer the ideal solution for all non-structural component bracing.

The only solutions in Australia and New Zealand to utilise/utilising high quality Gripple seismic bracing kits, the range of RIKTA brackets have been engineered to maximise load ratings whilst maintaining the ease of installation long associated with Gripple products.

The RIKTA RS rigid bracing products have been developed to work with readily available, industry standard SHS, RHS, strut, or pipe to mean a cost-effective solution wherever you are in the world.

The RIKTA range of rigid bracing products have been engineered to remove the weaknesses and issues associated with traditional methods of seismic bracing.

High Capacity Load Ratings

RIKTA brackets incorporate innovative design features for optimal performance and load ratings. The low-pry brackets apply force through the centre of the anchor to maximise anchor efficiency. The RIKTA seismic bracing product range is designed and tested in accordance with ANSI/ASHRAE 171, complaint with AS1170.4 and NZS4219.

No Reliance on Strut Nuts

Traditional methods of rigid bracing rely on the correct installation of strut nuts which are a key point of failure under earthquake conditions. RIKTA rigid bracing products utilise self-tapping screws for a positive fix to a range of common steel materials. This removes any requirement for strut nuts in the system.

Fast and Consistent Installation Process

Efficient bracket design, maximising anchor efficiency, means a faster, more cost-effective installation process. RIKTA rigid bracing products utilise self-tapping screws for an obvious, positive fix, significantly increases the speed of installation and inspection.

Adaptability and Adjustment

Whether using SHS, strut, or pipe, RIKTA products provide rated bracing solutions using low cost, readily available steel materials. Multiple self-drilling screws allow the brackets to pivot so that adjustments can be made during installation allowing flexibility to avoid other services and hangers, and ensuring clearance requirements are met.
