Schöck shear force dowel Stacon® Type LD
To avoid cracks due to temperature expansion or the shrinkage of concrete, expansion joints must be arranged in long structural elements and buildings. The simplest solution for force transmission in expansion joints is the Schöck Stacon® type LD. This shear force dowel connects the components adjacent to the joint without additional constructions. In doing so, the shear forces are transferred and at the same time the required movement is made possible. Complex double walls or corbels for load transfer can be omitted with these shear dowels.

Benefits
-
More than just a structural connection
The shear force dowel Schöck Stacon® type LD is the first single shear dowel that is technically approved in Europe as a load-bearing connection element in structures made of reinforced concrete
-
Optimum solution
With dowels in 5 diameters made of stainless steel or hot-dip galvanised steel, the shear force dowel Schöck Stacon® type LD can be optimally matched to the load and environmental conditions
-
Simple to design
The shear force dowels can be easily designed with the help of the web-based software Schöck Scalix®. The required on-site reinforcement is automatically optimised -
Cost effective
By using high-strength steels, smaller diameters and shorter dowels can be used
-
Proven fire protection
Fire resistance class R 120 can be achieved with a fire protection collar
