Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018129673A1] A joining system is provided for connecting first and second building construction members. The system includes a female dog(18) that connects to the first building construction member (14) and includes first and second female dog receiving surfaces (20,22), which face generally away from each other, and are adjacent an aperture (24) defining an axis. The system further includes a male dog (32) that is connectable to the second building construction member (16) and includes first and second male dog clamping surfaces (33,34) which generally face each other. The male dog (32) inserts through the aperture(24) and moves in a first lateral direction to clamp the female dog (18). A locking arrangement (42) includes first and second locking structures (44,46) which engage to permit movement of the male dog (32) in the first lateral direction to increase a clamping force on the female dog (18), and inhibit movement opposite the first lateral direction.
