Element zum Aufbau von Knotenstücken für Flächen- und Raumtragwerke

摘要

A component (4) for the construction of joint pieces (3) for use in plane and three-dimensional load-bearing structures has two limbs (6, 7) at an angle, at each free extremity of which is a lug (9, 10) with an aperture (12, 17). In order to configure a number of such components (4) in a joint piece (3), the component has contact surfaces (14, 19) surrounding the aperture (12). One contact surface (14) is on the inner face (15) and the other contact surface on the outer face (21) of the component. The inner face (15) is the one to which the angle enclosed by the limbs (6, 7) opens. The components are assembled to form a joint piece (3), several components (4) being joined to form a ring. The contact surfaces (14, 19) of adjacent units are placed on top of each other. The apertures (12, 17) are used for attaching the load-bearing struts.
