Longitudinally displaceable connection for cantilevered beam-type structural parts

摘要

A pair of longitudinally extending cantilevered beam-type structural members are interconnected for the transmission of shearing forces between them. A part is secured to and projects longitudinally from the cantilevered end of one of the structural members into a horizontally displaceable bearing in the other. A reinforcing part is rigidly connected to one of the structural members and extends in the longitudinal direction of the structural member from its cantilevered end into and is supported by at least one longitudinally displaceable bearing in the other said structural member. The reinforcing part can be a single element or a pair of elements with one being a compression element and the other a tension element.
