Abstract	The LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) Project aims at upgrading the systems in the LHC injection chain, to reliably deliver the beams required by the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). Given the challenging beam intensities and emittances, a review of the existing beam-intercepting devices is on-going, in order to assess heat loads and consequent thermo-mechanical stresses. Moreover, the exposure of downstream elements to induced shower radiation is assessed. The study is intended to spot possible issues and contribute to the definition of viable design and layout solutions.
