"ELSS Joint" bed panel connection method
We will introduce a rational joint method for precast PC floor slabs that omits the reinforcement in the joint area.
The "ELSS Joint" is a completely new floor slab jointing method that solves the challenges of loop joints without compromising safety, durability, drivability, or cost-effectiveness, by joining with only softer filling materials than the concrete of the floor slab itself. By utilizing the unique structural characteristics of the floor slab, which is continuously supported in the direction of vehicle travel by steel girders and earthquake-resistant wall parapets, this method features the incorporation of low-stiffness filling joints at intervals along the direction of vehicle travel, transforming the floor slab structure into an anisotropic slab with differing stiffness in the direction of vehicle travel and width. **Features** - Joins using only filling materials that are softer than the concrete of the floor slab itself. - Solves the challenges of loop joints without compromising safety, durability, drivability, or cost-effectiveness. - Transforms the floor slab structure into an anisotropic slab with differing stiffness in the direction of vehicle travel and width. - Reduces the bending moment in the direction of vehicle travel, which has lower stiffness. - Significantly simplifies the joint structure. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*
