+ SHEAR FORCE DOWEL SYSTEMS

Heavy-duty dowels (DB system)

Reliable transfer of high shear forces between two reinforced concrete components

The use of heavy-duty shear force dowels (DB system) enables the transmission of medium to high shear forces between reinforced concrete components that are separated by a joint of up to 120 mm.

Heavy-duty dowels (DB system)

Benefits

Small member thicknesses required from h_min = 150 mm
Transmission of shear forces up to V_Rd = 407 kN
Transfer of shear forces up to a maximum expected joint width of t_design = 120 mm
Systems with European Technical Assessment (ETA 23/0180)
Comprehensive technical brochure

Lateral movement (in the longitudinal direction of the joint) up to ±15 mm possible (cyclical lateral movements are not permitted)
Sleeve with integrated nailing plate
Can be combined with the NURSID® system for height difference compensation of up to 11 mm
