BONDING WITH ADHESIVE BEADS OR PLOTS

摘要

A structural member includes one or more walls that define a cavity. A system for reinforcing the cavity includes a substantially rigid carrier configured to reside in the cavity. The carrier includes a pathway disposed in the carrier that provides an aperture between an exterior surface of the carrier and an interior surface of the carrier. An adhesive is disposed in a gap between at least a portion of the exterior surface of the carrier and the wall of the structural member. The adhesive is disposed proximate to the pathway.
