3. Joint characteristics
3.1 Mechanical behavior
The non-linear (elasto-visco-plastic) behavior of the joint (figure 2) is characterized by a variation in its elastic modulus as a function of the applied stress. The standard does not introduce this notion.
SCROLL TO TOP3.1.1 Decompression modulus of elasticity
The behavior of the joint under decompression (assumed elastic return) is modeled by a straight line whose slope ( EG ) depends on the compressive stress...
