Abstract
A jointing device for long-limbed framework elements in reinforced concrete and framework comprising framework elements jointed by such devices. Means are provided for housing with a tightening fit the ends of the sections to be assembled. In a realization said means comprise a body from which depend at least two sleeves provided for housing with a tightening fit a portion of the sections to be assembled. The sleeves are preferably removably fixed to the body.
Claims37
A device for jointing together at least two reinforced concrete long-limbed construction elements or sections, comprising a body, at least two sleeves connected to said body, and means for tightening said sleeves so as to respectively clamp construction elements or sections therebetween.
A device for jointing together at least two reinforced concrete long-limbed construction elements or sections, comprising
- a hollow body having a plurality of faces defining a polygon;
- a pair of flanges, each perpendicularly attached to said faces and parallel to each other, said faces and said flanges defining a cavity in said body, and said flanges defining a pair of openings;
- an opening formed in at least one of said faces for communicating between said cavity and on a sleeve so as to allow the introduction of an end of a construction element or section into said body;
- a first sleeve attached to said face having said opening, said sleeve comprising two distinct U-shaped sections for accommodating a construction element or section;
- a pair of ears extending from each of said U-shaped sections, each of said ears including a plurality of holes therein for accommodation of tightening screws;
- a second sleeve attached to another face of said body, said sleeve comprising two distinct U-shaped sections for accommodating a construction element or section;
- and
- a pair of ears extending from each of said U-shaped sections of said second sleeve, each of said ears including a plurality of holes therein for accommodation of tightening screws.
A framework for a building comprising reinforced concrete elements, said elements including vertical posts, principal rafters, and binding rafters, and at least one device jointing together at least two of said sections, said device comprising a body, at least two sleeves connected to said body, and means for tightening said sleeves so as to respectively clamp concrete sections therebetween.
