HORIZONTAL
BRACES
MK
AND
DIAGONALS MK
These items make the bracing of the structures.
In top view, the horizontal brace is the item placed
perpendicular to the main axis of the structure to
keep the distance between two adjoining structures.
In order to distinguish them from the diagonals, the
horizontal braces are D48 tubes.
L refers to the tube length. The number in the item
name refers to the distance in metres at which the
structures are kept.
The diagonals complement the bracing, providing the
required stiffness to the structure.
L refers to the tube length. The number in the item
name refers to the vertical and horizontal projections
AxB (in m) of the length of the diagonal.
2.2.16.
U SECONDARY AXIS MK
This item connects horizontal braces and diagonals
to the structure. It can be placed either on walers or
on nodes.
It is fastened to the waler or node with bolts M20
and to the horizontal braces and diagonals with pins
E20x70.
An important feature of this joint type is that it
enables to connect the bracing back to the waler axis
thus obtaining high load-bearing capacity bracing.
2.2.17.
U SECONDARY AXIS END MK
This item has the same function as the previous one
but is placed at the beginning and the end of the
bracing. That is why it can only be assembled on
nodes.
It is fastened to the node with bolts M20 and to the
horizontal braces and diagonals with pins E20x70.
