Abstract: Connections for continuous framing in precast concrete structures have been a problem almost impossible to solve.
A frame system is more economical in comparison with to the standard system for precast concrete elements, consisting of a rigid column to foundation connection and a jointed beam to column connection. But the rigid beam to column connection was difficult and expensive to realise. Therefore an easy and economical bolt system has been developed. This system allows a fast assembling of the column to the foundation and a fast assembling of the beam to the column, independent of weather conditions.
The roots of this system are in Scandinavia / Finland.
