Connector for the connection between a metal element and an element made of concrete

Abstract

The invention regards a connector ( 100 ) for the connection of a steel beam ( 6 ) and a concrete slab ( 11 ), characterised in that it has a substantially rectangular-shaped base ( 1 ) fastenable against the beam or possibly against a trapezoidal corrugated sheet ( 7 ) interposed between the beam and the connector, through at least one fixed fastening element ( 2 ); in particular, it is provided that from said base ( 1 ) there be two substantially flat-shaped side-edges, arranged slanting with respect to the abovementioned base in such a manner to widen moving from the base upwards.

1 . CONNECTOR FOR THE CONNECTION OF A METAL ELEMENT AGAINST A CONCRETE ELEMENT, characterized in that it has a substantially rectangular-shaped base ( 1 ) fastenable against the beam ( 6 ), also through a sheet ( 7 ) interposed between the beam and the connector, through at least one fixed fastening element ( 2 ) being provided for that rising from said base ( 1 ) there be two substantially flat-shaped side edges ( 3 ) arranged slanting with respect to the abovementioned base, in such a manner to widen moving from the base upwards. 
     
     
         2 . Connector according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the base ( 1 ) has a relief ( 9 ) to adapt to the presence of a boss ( 8 ) at the bottom of the furrows of the trapezoidal corrugated sheet ( 7 ). 
     
     
         3 . Connector, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it has a groove ( 4 ) on the upper face of the side edges ( 3 ), ending with a widened end ( 4 ′), within which a rod ( 5 ) is intended to be accommodated for the reinforcement of the concrete, the insertion of the rod into the groove being performed in such a manner that the rod cannot dislodge neither during the execution, nor during the operation step. 
     
     
         4 . Connector according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it has a reinforcement rib ( 10 ) at the lower portion of the connector itself. 
     
     
         5 . Connector, according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it is fastened against a beam ( 6 ), possibly through an interposed trapezoidal corrugated sheet ( 7 ), through a plurality of fixed fastening elements ( 2 ), represented for example by a stud.
