A RESILIENT SLIP FRICTION JOINT

摘要

A slip connector to connect first and second members of a structure to allow relative but resisted movement, and to at least in part return any movement. The connector includes a first component and second component, each with mutually slidable ramped surfaces contiguous. The first and second components are connectable to the respective first and second members of the structure, and there is at least one resilient fixer to hold the two components contiguous so that the line(s) of action of the fixer(s) is/are oblique to the slidable surfaces held contiguous.
