Schöck shear dowel Stacon® type LD

Expansion joints must be provided in long elements and buildings to avoid cracks caused by temperature expansion or concrete contraction. The simplest solution for transferring forces in expansion joints is to use Schöck Stacon® type LD. This shear dowel connects the elements on each side of the joint without the need for additional constructions. In doing so, it transfers shear forces while sustaining the necessary mobility. It therefore eliminates the need for elaborate double walls or corbels to deflect the load.
