2. Regular Maintenance and Inspections Routine checks can help identify early signs of wear, corrosion, or loosening. Scheduled maintenance should include tightening and replacing components as necessary.
While the benefits of self-restrained dismantling joints are substantial, there are challenges associated with their design and implementation. Achieving the right balance between strength and ease of disassembly requires careful material selection and engineering. Designers must also consider factors such as environmental conditions, load-bearing capacities, and the potential for material degradation over time.
