The use of corrugated connectors in the floor area during crack casting with casting resins
The term "wave connector" (due to its wave-like appearance) is used in the construction sector to describe curved sheet metal strips in the shape of a wave, which are used to grout cracks in the floor area. To do this, the substrate (e.g. screed) is first cut transversely to the course of the crack and then the wave connectors are laid in these cut joints.
The distance between the wave connectors can be chosen as required, but should be in the range of 15 to 20 centimetres. Finally, the crack and the inserted shaft connectors are sealed with casting resin.
The tasks of shaft connectors are similar to those of reinforcement, namely to transfer occurring forces into the load-bearing substrate.
