nodes Explanation: Judging by the number of hits I get for "steel bridge construction node" I would say just "node" is the word you are after. There are also references to "steel nodes".

joints/joint systems Explanation: They translate it as "joint connection." https://trid.trb.org/view.aspx?id=953461 They translate it as "joint." https://www.stahlbau.uni-hannover.de/uploads/tx_tkpublikatio... Experimentelle und numerische Untersuchungen von Knotenverbindungen für Tripods von Offshore-Windenergieanlagen Experimental und numerical investigations for tripod joints of offshore-structures Neben geschweißten Rohrknotenverbindungen werden auch Konstruktionsvarianten in Stahlguss analysiert und für die statischen und dynamischen Beanspruchungen dimensioniert. Furthermore tubular joints of tripods are analysed with numerical simulations to judge these welded joints with the hot-spot-concept. Definitions (as used in paper): http://elsa.jrc.ec.europa.eu/publications/LBNA25377ENN.pdf connection: local region that includes the union between two or more members; connector: (usually metallic) linking device interposed between the parts to be connected; node: local region of convergence between different members; joint: equipped interface between adjacent members; (joint) systems: linking practices classified on the basis of the execution technology. mechanical joint system: dry joints with bolted flanges or other steel fittings similar to those used in metallic constructions fixed at the end of the precast member. Might be called "connections" in the US. https://www.aisc.org/globalassets/modern-steel/archives/2011... Steel Connections: Proprietary or Public Domain? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 29 mins (2018-04-17 16:30:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I don't like "joint connection," because that sounds like a connector or fastener *for* a joint. "Node" doesn't fit your context of a physical installation. The handful of translations for Knotenverbindung that I've seen all contain "joint." |
