Wind Brace Tensioning Bracket and Tensioning System
The present invention relates to a tensioning bracket (1) for tensioning at least one perforated band (6) defining a longitudinal band axis (15), the bracket comprising at least one bracket element (2) having a thickness and comprising a first body section (3) defining a first longitudinal body axis, a first body width, and the first body section comprising a number of projecting pins (11) arranged to receive the perforations (7) of the band, the projecting pins identifying a pin side and an opposing non-pin side of the bracket element, and a second body section (4) defining a second longitudinal body axis, a second body width comprising a number of holes (12) arranged in the same pattern as the projecting pins of the first body section, and the bracket element further comprising an attachment section (8) for attaching means for pulling and thereby tensioning the perforated band, wherein the first and second body sections are connected to each other via a common section (5) made of the same piece of material as the first and second body section and wherein the bracket element is configured so that when bending the element along a bending line in the common section the pins of the first section are received in holes of the second body section.
