Abstract: Each pre-fabricated element of the invention has an abutment face which, in the assembled condition, is to be juxtaposed with the similar abutment face of another element so as to define a gap therewith which may be filled with a sealant or a bonding agent. The abutment faces are so shaped that longitudinal sections of the gap are spatially curved and define at least partly orthogonal trajecteries of the main structural stress lines acting in the region of the gap.
