Abstract:
A structure including a first hollow-section Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) member, and a second hollow-section FRP member arranged at an angle to the first member. A rod extends through the second member. The rod also has a threaded end section extending through or into the first member. The opposed end of the rod is fixed to a further member. A nut secures the threaded end section to the first member, and screwing of the nut and threaded end section together exerts a compressive force on the second member and a tensile force on the rod.

Claim (Index 29):
A method according to  claim 25 , wherein each of said plurality of webs comprises a pair of hollow-section sleeves for arrangement about the rod, and a pair of centre nuts for location around the rod between said sleeves, the centre nuts being configured to push the sleeves outwardly, towards the chords, upon tightening to clamp the sleeves between the centre nuts and the chords, the method comprising, for each said web: inserting a first of the threaded end sections through a pair of holes in a first of the chords and screwing that end section through the associated end nut so that it projects out of the end nut; inserting the second of the threaded end sections through a pair of holes in the second of the chords, attaching the associated end nut to that threaded end, and engaging said first of the threaded ends and rotating the end to screw the second of the threaded end section into the associated end nut; and screwing the centre nuts around the threaded rod to clamp the sleeves between the centre nuts and the chords.
