Prefabricated couplers are used to simplify the construction process. The coupler boxes usually found on the market are designed in such a way that after stripping from the mould the reinforce-ment joint is released by bending the legs. The cri- tical advantage of the Comax reinforcement joint that is presented here is reduced assembly and stripping time compared to conventional rein-forcement. Furthermore the formwork does not have to be drilled for further reinforcement.
