Abstract: A steel beam comprising a frame formed by a first web part, a second web part, a base plate and a horizontal top part. The first and second web part are arranged side by side at a distance from each other, and joined at a first end of the first web part and the second web part by the horizontal top part. The first and second web part are joined at a second end of the first web part and second web part by the base plate. The base plate, the first web part, the second web part and the horizontal top part are arranged to form a space that can be filled with concrete. The steel beam further comprises a hollow member arranged inside the space sealed to prevent concrete entering. The hollow member is attached to the frame for preventing movement in relation to the frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to a prefabricated movement joint system with top edge rails providing protection for the concrete floor slab edges. The top edge rails may have a plurality of anchors to embed in the concrete and position the system, which are formed from the parent steel of the rail and not for example welded on. When the top edge rails are joined back to back with the possible use of yieldable fixings they clamp and hold in position possible a nylon or other plastic shaped extrusion and the divider plate thus comprising the whole of the assembled system.

Abstract: Expansion joint system of a concrete slab arrangement, comprising an expansion joint reinforcement to be arranged between a first and a second concrete slab (1, 2), the expansion joint reinforcement comprising at least two local dowels (3)transferring loads perpendicular to the slab plane. The dowels comprise a dowel plate (4) and a casing part (5). The dowel plate (4) and the casing part (5) are attached to the concrete slabs on different sides of the joint. The casing part (5) prevents the dowel plate from adhering to the concrete slab and allows the dowel plate (4) to move inside the casing part and thus allows the movements of the slabs (1, 2) in the horizontal direction. The dowels (3) are installed alternately relative to the joint so that the casing parts (5) of the adjacent dowels (3) are always installed on different sides of the joint.
