New Transportation Brochure.
It’s been 8 months since the launch of our much anticipated Transportation Brochure, so what is the feedback?
“Great!“ and “something we should have done 10 years ago” was the feedback we received from customers and distributors across Europe. Not a bad review for a first document, kudos to those involved! It was designed to be user friendly and informative, and it seems to tick both of those boxes. We can definitely see there is demand for more of these documents, so watch this space for future editions….

Joint Stress Distribution
Joint stress distribution is the location of stresses within a bond.
Tension and Compressive Stress Distribution:
When a bond experiences either tensile or compressive stress, the joint distribution is illustrated as a straight line. The stress is evenly distributed across the entire bond.
Shear Stress Distribution:
Shear stresses are distributed across the bond in an entirely different way. The ends of the bond resist a greater amount of stress than the middle of the bond does.
Cleavage and Peel Stress Distribution:
When cleavage or peel stress is applied to a joint, most of the stress is concentrated at one end.
