The Max Frank™ – Egcodorn™ shear force dowel system is designed for the transmission of shear forces in expansion joints within concrete structures. Expansion joints are used to decouple components and prevent stress cracks, and shear force dowels are essential for maintaining the structural integrity of these joints. The Egcodorn™ system provides an efficient and reliable solution for transmitting shear forces, ensuring the durability and performance of the joint over time.
The Egcodorn™ DND version is particularly suited for dynamic stresses, making it an ideal solution for joints subjected to movement, such as navigated joints. The system offers predictability in planning and execution, particularly when dealing with high static loads. Whether you’re working with standard expansion joints or those subjected to dynamic forces, the Egcodorn™ system ensures optimal load transfer, preventing cracking and ensuring the longevity of the structure.
By combining Stremaform® formwork elements with the Egcodorn™ shear force dowel system, contractors can simplify both formwork and reinforcement work on expansion joints, resulting in more efficient and planned construction.
Why Choose Egcodorn™ Dowel?
The Max Frank™ – Egcodorn™ shear force dowel system offers reliable performance for expansion joints, whether for high static loads or dynamic stresses. It simplifies construction processes and provides long-lasting corrosion protection, ensuring the durability and strength of concrete structures.
