Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006094362A1] There is provided reinforcing connectors (10) comprising a first (12) member comprising a body (16) having a cavity for receiving and retaining the end of a reinforcing bar (20) by threaded engagement. The other end of the body (16) is provided with a second cavity (24) extending from an opening (26) located in the end (28) and extending inwardly via cavity region (30) and opening into enlarged portion (32). A second member (14) comprises a body (40) formed with an enlarged portion (42) and a shank portion (44). The body (40) has an enlarged tapered portion (50) to increase its pullout resistance. In use the second member (14) is placed in a desired position in formwork with the underside (52) of further enlarged portion (48) located at an outer surface of the concrete. The first member (12) is then moved transversely relative to second member (14) until the enlarged portion (42) is received in cavity (24).
