Abstract

In these papers, most intricate and most difficult problems are to be solved in both design and construction of structure assembled of precise members is the joining of the latter. It’s highly important that the construction of the joints should be easy, that unavoidable smaller inaccuracies and deviations within dimensional tolerances should neither influence the designed stresses to a detrimental manner nor cause inadmissible changes in the stress distribution of the structure. It is desirable that the structure should be load bearing as soon as possible, preferably immediately after assembly. An additional justified demand is that the joints require, owing to their intricacy, greatly increased control/ joints which cannot be inspected should be omitted. When solving the problems for joints, the properties of reinforced concrete must be taken into consideration. This means in other words, that the design and the construction of the joints should harmonized with the material to come into use. The properties of steel and timber are quite different from those of concrete and reinforced concrete. Therefore, joints similar to those used in timber and steel construction generally not appropriate for the purpose.
