RSJ timber infill gaps
My structural engineers plans involved a timber infill into an old
tapered flange RSJ. I cut the timber infill to be quite a good fit into the shape, but after tightening up, there is a small gap (2mm) between the timber infill and the RSJ. Is there any glue / substance that sets fairly incompressible, that I could inject into the gap so the load is not purely on the bolt holes ? Come to think of it though, new timber always shrinks, so a timber infill that is initially wedged tight would probably loosen anyway, so maybe I'm worrying about nothing. Simon. |
