Reinforcement of Hollow Structural Members
Abstract A method of reinforcing a thin-walled structural member. The method comprises: 5 - inserting through a first hole formed in a first wall portion of the structural member a first end of a reinforcing strut, - fastening said first end of the strut onto a second wall portion of the structural member in a position where a second hole penetrates the second wall portion, and 10 - fastening a second end of the reinforcing strut onto said first wall portion. The strut has a longitudinal axis extending perpendicular to said wall portions, The first end of the strut includes a first end flange. The second end of the strut includes a second end flange. The end flanges extend transversely to the longitudinal axis of the strut and are non-circular. The first hole is elongated such that said end 15 flanges may pass through when aligned in one direction but not when aligned in another direction The first end flange and said second end flange are passed through the first hole and the strut then rotated such that the first end flange then bears on the inside of the second wall alongside the second hole and the second end flange bears on the inside of the first wall alongside the first hole. A locating means is engaged 20 with the second end of the strut and fastened into said first hole to prevent displacement of said second end. 52-/
