Together, these elements ensure your designs are optimized for performance, cost, and sustainability. 

Higher Performing Specifications 

How do you make your specs higher performing? Hilti’s extensive hardware portfolio is designed for a wide range of applications and jobsite conditions. Take, for example, our latest HST4 stud anchor for structural baseplate connections: 

• Higher pullout performance and improved concrete cone resistance. 
• Smaller diameter anchors reduce material use while maintaining strength. 
• Reduced anchor and edge spacings for more efficient designs. 
• Approved for diverse jobsite conditions, ensuring reliability in challenging environments. 

Integrated with PROFIS Engineering, our leading design software for structural connections, the HST4 optimizes the design process, delivering higher performing specifications. 

Total System Service and Solutions for Baseplate Applications 

Value Engineered Specifications 

In Hong Kong’s competitive market, meeting technical requirements isn’t enough. Designers must also focus on value creation. Hilti simplifies this process with two key equations: 

The result is Value for Money and a lower Total Cost of Ownership. Our PROFIS Engineering Suite makes value engineering easy, helping you optimize designs for cost and performance. 
But value engineering isn’t just about cost. It’s also about Value to Society: 

• User safety: Safer installations and worker safety. 
• Building safety: Meeting resistance requirements for various loads. 
• Sustainability: Reducing CO2 emissions through optimized designs and greener materials.

Specifications that Provide More Peace of Mind 

Building safety is a top priority for designers in Hong Kong. Hilti partners with academia and regulatory bodies to elevate industry standards and practices. Our design methods and software ensure your specifications are safe and reliable. 
We also understand the need to ensure that your specifications are implemented correctly on the jobsite. By specifying Hilti installation systems and solutions, you can make jobsite practices faster, simpler, and safer compared to traditional methods. Our field team is available to provide onsite training, ensuring proper installation and reducing the need for redesign or rework. This partnership gives you more peace of mind that your design will be executed as specified. 
  

Hilti ensures proper installation, reducing the need for redesign or rework. 

More Sustainable Specifications  

The construction industry accounts for 37% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Hilti is committed to reducing this impact. Our hardware solutions and PROFIS Engineering software help minimize the CO2 footprint of your structural connections. 
Hilti is on a path to net-zero CO2 emissions, aligned with the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative. We support your sustainability goals through transparent CO2 data management, efficient tracking, and reporting. 
 

Summary 

Hilti’s SPEC2site solutions help you create better specifications that are higher performing, value engineered, more sustainable, and provide more peace of mind. We understand the challenges you face as a structural designer, architect, or contractor in Hong Kong, and we’re here to support you every step of the way—from design to installation. 
Let Hilti be your partner for productivity, safety, and sustainability.
