Abstract

A load transmitting device for use in transmitting load from a tie rod to a beam used as a support for a concrete casting formwork, has a bridging member which bridges between adjacent lateral flanges of the beam, and restraint means acting between the bridging member and a surface of the beam facing oppositely to the flange surfaces bridged by said member, in such a manner as to resist bending of the flanges engaged by the bridging member as a result of bending force applied to the bridging member by the tie rod loading the flanges at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the beam.
