Shear force dowel Egcodorn®
Shear force transmission in expansion joints
Expansion joints are provided in concrete structures to decouple components and avoid stress cracks. Shear force dowels are used for the transmission of shear forces which occur in such joints.
There are three basic types, which are designed for different applications.
The Egcodorn® shear force dowel system offers predictability in planning and execution for high static loads.
Egcodorn® DND is the optimal solution where dynamic stresses are to be considered, e.g. in the case of navigated joints.
Egcodubel is the most economical product for structural connections.
Advantages
- Simplification of formwork and reinforcement work on expansion joints
- Permanent corrosion protection through high quality materials
- Combinations of ready-made Stremaform® formwork elements with the Egcodorn® shear force dowel system enable efficient, planned construction

Product variants
Shear force dowel Egcodorn® for longitudinal and lateral movement
for high loads in expansion joints
The longitudinally moveable Egcodorn® allows displacements in the direction of the longitudinal dowel axis.
If displacements occur both along and laterally to the dowel axis the laterally displaceable Egcodorn® must be used. Which allows displacement in both directions, should be used when transverse axial displacements occur. This Egcodorn® should be used in the case of curved component edges or longer joint lengths.
For more economical solutions, material utilization can be optimized with the Egcodorn® "modular system".
Shear force dowel Egcodorn® DND
for joints subjected to dynamic loads
The Egcodorn® DND shear force dowel is used for dynamically stressed joints.
The main fields of application of the Egcodorn® DND are navigable joints, such as mass spring systems, crane tracks or multi-storey car parks.
- Absorption of non-static loads
- Allows longitudinal displacement
- Made of stainless steel for maximum corrosion protection
- Time and cost advantages thanks to combination with Stremaform® formwork element
Shear force dowel Egcodubel
for small and medium loads in expansion joints
Egcodubel for expansion joints is a system for transmission of shear forces in joints of plate-shaped components. The use of dowels is usually limited to secondary components (e.g. floor slabs).
Egcodubel can be used with sleeves for small loads or for structural component connection. Egcodubel is available without sleeves for dowelling work and dummy joints.
