STRIFF® Shear Dowels are designed to allow the expansion or contraction of connection between two concrete elements, effectively reducing or preventing constraints.
The STRIFF® Shear Dowel system allows for the controlled movement of concrete structures in the transverse and/or longitudinal directions of expansion joints. This movement helps to prevent constraints and mitigate potential damages. Simultaneously, STRIFF® ensures that the connected structures maintain the same horizontal level, restricting movement in the vertical direction.
The STRIFF® Shear Dowel system is available in two load models: STRIFF® 43 and STRIFF® 51. Both models feature rectangular cross-sections, which significantly reduce stresses at the contact areas. This reduction in stress aids in minimizing crackling noises that may occur during movement.
Thanks to its utilization of high-quality stainless-steel material, the STRIFF® Shear Dowel is suitable not only for interior applications but also for a variety of other environments.
