Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0678446A1] The invention relates to a method for constructing and mutually connecting in liquid-tight and rigid but releasable manner of structural parts for use in a wet environment, in which a required connecting force between the parts are determined and from that a required number of sets of connecting elements are arranged in the structural parts, in which the connecting elements are arranged and connected to each other. Each set of connecting elements comprises a bolt received in a bush and an associated nut of a determined standard size, and the openings are formed with a large tolerance relative to the standard size. Before connection the bolt received in the bush and the nut are each placed sealingly in register with their associated opening and secured. The invention further relates to an assembly of structural parts that is formed by applying this method. <IMAGE>
