Abstract (en)

Prestressed joints are characterized by that between the facing plates /2/ there are spacing elements /10, 11, 12, 13/ located on the peripheries of the plates, and the stressing bolts /3/ connecting the facing plates are situated in the stretched zone between the spacing elements and the contour of the cross-section of the joined elements. Preferably, the spacing elements are flat bars. The manner of the making of a prestressed abutting joint as in the invention is characterized by that elements of the structure are so positioned that a distance between the facing plates is kept and then spacing elements are placed on the edges of the plates, preferably in the shape of flat bars, after which the facing plates of the joint are stressed by the bolts. Preferably, the spacing elements are bonded or welded to one of the facing plates.
