Reusable lifting apparatus for insulated precast concrete sandwich panels
A reusable lifting apparatus includes a first mount assembly embedded within a first layer of a concrete sandwich panel and a second mount assembly embedded within a second layer of a concrete sandwich panel. The reusable lifting apparatus includes a lifting insert insertable within a void in one or more insulation layers between the first layer and the second layer. The reusable lifting apparatus includes a lifting bolt couplable to at least one of the first mount assembly, the second mount assembly, or the lifting insert through a hole in the first layer. The lifting insert is pivotable within the void about an axis through the lifting bolt. The lifting insert and the lifting bolt are removable from the concrete sandwich panel so as to eliminate thermal bridging between the first layer and the second layer via the lifting insert and the lifting bolt.
