  • Stress transmission device, and structure and method of constructing the same
    Patent number: 6554542
    Abstract: A stress transmission device arranged between a pile head of a foundation pile and an upper structural portion for transmitting stress between the foundation pile and the upper structural portion, to a structure which employs such a stress transmission device, and to a method of constructing such a structure. In the figures, a pile head member 5 is provided to the pile head 2a of the foundation pile 2, a structure support member 6 is fixed to an upper structural portion 3, and these mutually contact one another in the vertical direction via a first contacting surface 11 which defines a portion of a first imaginary spherical surface Sv1. And a prestressing steel rod 7 is fitted to the pile head member 5 and the structure support member 6 for holding them together in contact while pressing them together via the first contacting surface 11.
