A joint edge protection apparatus – shearing clamping rivets
A joint edge protection apparatus for protecting an edge of a first component formed of settable material and an edge of a second component formed of settable material at a joint, wherein the apparatus includes a first anchorage part for anchoring within the first component and a second anchorage part for anchoring within the second component, a first plate coupled to the first anchorage part, a second plate coupled to the second anchorage part, the first plate defining a first abutment surface, the second plate defining a second abutment surface, wherein the first abutment surface and the second abutment surface are shaped to facilitate abutment of at least a portion of the second abutment surface against the first abutment surface, and wherein the second anchorage part is adapted to be movable relative to the first anchorage part from an abutting configuration in which at least a portion of the second abutment surface is in abutment with the first abutment surface to a spaced configuration in which the second abutment surface is spaced relative to the first abutment surface, wherein the first anchorage part defines a support surface to support the second plate as the second anchorage part is moved between the abutting configuration and the spaced configuration, wherein, in the abutting configuration an interface between the first abutment surface and the second abutment surface is offset relative to an interface between the first anchorage part and the second anchorage part such that the interface of the first abutment surface and the second abutment surface is positioned above the support surface, and wherein the first anchorage part and the second anchorage part are coupled by a fastener which is frangible so as to break by shearing when the second anchorage part is moved between the abutting configuration and the spaced configuration due to shrinking of the first and/or second components. The fastener may be in the form of a rivet which is countersunk so as to be flush with an upper surface of the second plate.
