Storage tank floor-wall joint connection device
The invention concerns a floor-to-wall joint connection “BearStop” device for providing both a water-tight seal, as well as load-bearing and flexibility between two closely abutting or adjacent structures, such as the wall and foundation of a storage tank. Embodiments also provide motion or sliding capabilities to accommodate expansion and contraction in the joint area between the wall and the foundation. A knee section provides a testing channel usable for testing the integrity of the seal.
