A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The present invention relates to a system for fixings and/or preventing relative movement between two elongated members particularly for a pole. The system comprises couplings (300) provided by pairs of tapered bodies (200). The elongate mast portion (500) is of a smaller cross-section than the base portion (400) and can at least partially fit within the base portion (400). The respective tapered body providing engagement surfaces (235) which upon entry of the mast (500) into the base (400) increase the area of mutual contact and increase the lateral force applied between the mast and the base thereby preventing or at least reducing relative movement therebetween.
